On March 8, NDC Minister Kung received Mr. John Dennis, Representative of the British Office Taipei, who made a courtesy call since taking this post in Taiwan earlier this year. During their conversation, various issues were discussed including pursuing the goal of net-zero carbon emission for tackling climate change, offshore wind power development, Taiwan’s Bilingual Nation 2030 policy and global supply chain restructuring, etc.
Minster Kung stated that, in face of the international trend of setting up net-zero emission target, Taiwan is to refer to the development paths of net-zero emissions in advanced countries so as to plan Taiwan’s own implementation strategies and development roadmap.
Minster Kung expressed appreciation for British Office and British Council for their advice and assistance in our 2030 Bilingual Nation policy with the aim of enhancing English proficiency of professionals in all areas. In addition, Taiwan is to expand cooperation with advanced countries to strengthen the development of new industrial supply chains in such areas as electric vehicles, self-driving cars, 5G, as well as the six core strategic industries, etc. In the foreseeable future, there will be many more opportunities for collaboration between Taiwan and the UK.
