This past Sunday, May 26th we stopped by the annual Passport to Taiwan that's held in New York City's Union Square Park. The first Passport to Taiwan was held in 2002 and it's become the largest outdoor Taiwanese American event in the entire United States. Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/passport-to-taiwan-2025-ben-hedges-a-laowais-view-of-china-and-ambassador-lee-of-teco-ep-313/ While there I spoke with the Taiwanese American Arts Council's (TAAC's) Executive Director Luchia Meihua Lee, Ambassador Tom Lee of TECO-NY, the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in New York, and Ben Hedges, host of Lao Wai Kan Zhongguo also known as the A Laowai's View of China & Taiwan YouTube channel. Passport to Taiwan is a celebration of Taiwanese art, culture, music, community, and of course food. Here's a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode: ·   The Taiwanese American Arts Council's (TAAC's) house on Governors Island, House 17 is twice the size of last year's house ·   The theme of the Taiwanese American Arts Council's (TAAC's) House 17 on Governors Island is Eco Art on Island ·   How the Taiwanese American Arts Council's (TAAC's) House 17 on Governors Island will be open from May 17 to November 2 ·   Ambassador Tom Lee mentioned this is the first time that TECO-NY (Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in New York) has had a booth at Passport to Taiwan ·   Ben Hedges, host of the YouTube channel, Lao Wai Kan Zhongguo has emceed Hello Taiwan events ·   How 7-11 stores in Taiwan sponsored travel videos on Lao Wai Kan Zhongguo's YouTube channel ·   How Ben will be relaunching the Lao Wai Kan Zhongguo's YouTube channel   Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/passport-to-taiwan-2025-ben-hedges-a-laowais-view-of-china-and-ambassador-lee-of-teco-ep-313/

If you've listened to our most recent episode of Talking Taiwan, you'll know that the sixty-ninth session of the Commission on the Status of Women or CSW69 is now taking place at United Nations Headquarters in New York. It began on March 10th and runs until March 21st.   Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/taiwan-on-the-margins-of-csw-69-celebrating-womens-resilience-progress-at-taiwan-main-stage-ep-307/   On March 12th the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in New York (TECO-NY) hosted an event called “Taiwan Main Stage: Celebrating Women's Resilience & Progress on the margins of CSW 69.” This smartly worded event title is undoubtedly a soft reference the fact that Taiwan is not a member of the United Nations, and therefore on the margins of CSW69.   We were there at TECO-NY's fully packed event on the 12th where we heard from Po-Chun Sophiyah Liu and Chia-Hui Lu. Sophiyah is Ambassador-at-Large for Sports Diplomacy of Taiwan, and she is Taiwan's first female umpire. Chia-Hui Lu is a classical musician, cross disciplinary artist and an associate professor at National Taiwan University of Arts.   Here's a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode: ·   How Taiwan is not a member of the United Nations ·   Sophiyah Liu's remarks at TECO-NY's event called “Taiwan Main Stage: Celebrating Women's Resilience & Progress on the margins of CSW 69” ·   How the Global Sports Mentoring Program that set Sophiyah on the path to sports diplomacy ·   How when Sophiyah won the IOC and UN Women: Women and Sport World trophy in 2019, a special arrangement was made for her to enter the UN building to receive the award ·   When Sophiyah was invited to attend the UN Global Sport Program working group which met in a conference room in the United Nations building but when it came time to attend the meeting, she was told she couldn't enter the UN building because she has a passport from Taiwan ·   Sophiyah's thoughts on the controversy over questions about the gender eligibility of female boxer Lin Yu-ting at the Paris Olympics ·   Sophiyah's thoughts on gender eligibility testing in sports ·   Chia-Hui Lu's remarks at TECO-NY's event called “Taiwan Main Stage: Celebrating Women's Resilience & Progress on the margins of CSW 69 ·   The technology, AI training and experimentation involved in creating the real-time music recognition system that captures melodies from Chia-Hui's piano playing and transforms it into a surreal visual story   ·   The mission and past projects of the Egret Cultural and Education Foundation ·   How the Egret Cultural and Education Foundation's cross art productions combine theater, music, dance, technology, culture, and history ·   How the Egret Cultural and Education Foundation was published books about Taiwan's history, nature, music, and art   Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/taiwan-on-the-margins-of-csw-69-celebrating-womens-resilience-progress-at-taiwan-main-stage-ep-307/

Send us a textA seasoned diplomat with a wealth of experience in international relations, Ya-Ping (Abby) Lee has been the Representative of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Tel Aviv since January 2022, where she leads the mission in promoting Taiwan-Israel relations across a wide range of sectors, including consular services, economic and commercial affairs, and cultural exchange.  Since October 7th, she's been outspoken in her support and solidarity with the Israeli people as natural democratic allies against authoritarian threats. Eylon sits down with the Taiwanese representative to discuss the key to saving these two democracies in the face of existential threats.Co-Creator and Host - Eylon LevyCo-Creator and Creative Director - Guy RossExecutive Producer - Asher Westropp-EvansDirector - Lotem SegevGraphics - Thomas GirschEditor/Assistant Director - Benny GoldmanStay up to date at:https://www.stateofanationpodcast.com/X: https://twitter.com/stateofapodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/stateofapod/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...

Over the past three years, several seemingly frozen conflicts (Sudan, Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Gaza, Armenia/Azerbaijan, etc) have broke out into hot conflicts that are challenging the current international order. There is, however, one of the longest standing potential flashpoints that has not entered the fray, but is listed as one issue that could embroil the world. That is the unresolved issue of cross-strait relations between the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Republic of China (ROC), also known as the island of Taiwan. For more than seventy years, the question of who controls Taiwan has simmered just under the surface of geopolitical tensions, as the PRC continues to claim control of Taiwan, while recognizing that reunification is necessary (the juxtaposition here is insightful). The ROC continues to maintain that the political status of Taiwan can only be decided by the people of Taiwan, who currently support maintaining the status quo (having their own democracy, while not openly trying to claim full independence). In this episode we speak with Director General Charles Liao of the Taiwan Economic and Cultural Office in Boston. As the US and Taiwan do not maintain official relations, they do not maintain an embassy or series of consulates throughout the US, so these offices act as the representatives of the ROC in the US. Listen to gain insights into the current state of cross-strait relations and how the ROC views their relationship with the PRC. This becomes increasingly important as the PRC continues to ramp up military drills surrounding Taiwan, increasing the chances for a miscalculation or accident that can lead to all out war. In an age where military might has returned to the global stage as a way to resolve conflicts, the question of Taiwan and how to encourage a diplomatic resolution remains one of the most important of the day.As mentioned in the podcast introduction, if you are interested in learning more about what foreign policy might look like as the United States enters a second term for President Trump, please watch our conversation with Dan Negrea of the Atlantic Council and co-Author of "We Win, They Lose: Republican Foreign Policy and the New Cold War". You can watch the RECORDING HERE.Charles Liao is the Director-General of Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Boston. Prior to assuming his current position on August 3rd 2023, Mr. Liao was Deputy Secretary-General of the Taiwan Council for U.S. Affairs, seconded to Foreign Minister's Office, from 2020 to 2023.From 2014 to 2020, Mr. Liao served in Washington, D.C. as First Secretary and then Deputy Director at the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in the United States. He was Section Chief in the Department of East Asian and Pacific Affairs at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs from 2010 to 2013. From 2004 to 2010, Mr. Liao served as Senior Consular Officer at the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Los Angeles.Mr. Liao earned a Bachelor of Arts in Diplomacy from National Chengchi University in 1999. Mr. Liao is married to Nicole Chang and they have two daughters, Norah and Carice.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. CWA: Typhoon Kong-rey Strengthens May Make Landfall Hualien or South Tomorow Noon to Evening The Central Weather Administration is expanding its land warning, as Typhoon Kong-rey continues to pick up strength. The CWA says the storm's maintaining its radius of 300 kilometers, and the land warning now includes Hualien, Taitung, Pingtung, and the Hengchun Peninsula. Officials say the storm is moving quickly, and could make landfall sometime between tomorrow noon and evening, with the eye of the storm arriving south of Hualien County. Kong-rey is currently about 520 kilometers southeast of Eluanbi, but forecasters say the storm's periphery (外圍) could hit southeastern Taiwan early tomorrow morning. The CWA says based on the typhoon's current path and speed, the entire island may be included in the land warning as soon as late tonight. Kong-rey is packing sustained wind speeds of 184 kilometers per hour, with gusts of up to 227 kilometers per hour. A heavy rain advisory is also in effect, for Keelung North Coast, as well as mountainous areas in Taipei, New Taipei, and Yilan. (NS) Taiwan donates 500 metric tons of rice to storm-hit Philippines Taiwan donated 500 metric tons of rice to the Philippines in the wake of recent destruction caused by Tropical Storm Trami and Typhoon Gaemi in late July, at a ceremony held in the city of Makati on Tuesday. Wallace Chow, head of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in the Philippines, handed over a bag of rice printed with a Republic of China (Taiwan) flag and "Love from Taiwan" to Philippine officials during the ceremony. Chow also says the Taiwan Technical Mission in the Philippines will soon begin projects in Isabela and Cagayan provinces in northeastern Luzon to increase rice production, in a bid to ensure (確保) no one will suffer from hunger when the Southeast Asian country is hit by natural disasters in the future. Philippine officials say their country appreciates the generosity of Taiwan for the donation, which will go a long way in easing the burden of victims and the poorest in the communities. UK Teen Accused of Stabbing Attack Also Made Ricin Police say a British teen accused of fatally stabbing 3 girls also made poison and had a terror manual (手冊). AP correspondent Haya Panjwani reports Argentina Hotel Collapse Authorities say a 10-story hotel under renovation in Argentina has collapsed, leaving one person dead and at least seven trapped in the debris. Firefighters searching for survivors rescued a woman who was alive from the rubble of the Dubrovnik Hotel in Villa Gesell, 350-kilometers south of the capital Buenos Aires. Officials say an 80-year-old man died in the collapse, and between seven and nine people, presumably (據推測) masons working on the hotel's restoration, remain trapped. A prosecutor opened an investigation to determine the cause of the collapse, but Villa Gesell's municipality said in a press release the hotel was undergoing a renovation without the proper permits. China Launches 3 Astronauts to Orbiting Space Station China launched a new three-person crew to its orbiting space station today, as the country seeks to expand (擴張) its exploration of outer space. The team of two men and one woman will replace the astronauts who have lived on the Tiangong space station for the last six months. They are expected to stay until April or May of next year. The new mission commander went to space in the Shenzhou-14 mission in 2022, while the other two, are first-time space travelers, born in the 1990s. That was the I.C.R.T.

Dario Klein & Riatsu – Radler EP (Vinyl Release) Originals from Cologne and Mumbai, Remixes from Berlin and Hamburg What happens when two artists from completely different musical worlds meet across continents? The answer is provided by Cologne-based live act and DJ Dario Klein, along with ambient sound artist Riatsu from Mumbai. The two musicians met in 2022 as part of an artist exchange organized by the Cultural Office of the City of Cologne and the Goethe-Institut Mumbai. Their musical journey led them from live performances and collaborative studio sessions in India and Germany to the release of their debut Radler EP on vinyl. The original tracks "Radler" and "Fading Light" capture the unforgettable moments of their collaboration in two danceable and driving tracks. The EP is rounded off by remixes from Überhaupt & Außerdem from Berlin and Metatext from Hamburg. The result: an EP that has grown in clubs and festivals and matured in the studio. A special thanks goes to the Cultural Office of the City of Cologne, which significantly supported and facilitated this project.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Taiwan donates US$50,000 to flood-hit Brazil Taiwan's government recently donated 50 thousand NT to Brazil to help the country cope (應付) with devastating floods. The floods have wreaked havoc across nearly 90 percent of municipalities in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Over 300 thousand homes were damaged, as well as roads, bridges and a hydroelectric plant. Local media reports say the death toll has risen to 126, and 141 are missing. The Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Sao Paulo said the overseas Taiwanese community in Brazil have delivered essential supplies to disaster areas. The office hopes all victims can return to normal life as soon as possible. Brazilian officials said they're very grateful to Taiwan for providing immediate assistance. They say the people of the state will not forget the good deed. Taichung government introduces pet-friendly taxi service The Taichung City government is announcing a pet-friendly taxi service, allowing owners to bring their pets along without any additional charge. It said pet-owning passengers can choose from 16 local service providers listed on the website of the City's Transportation Bureau. And many drivers are pet owners themselves. Transport officials said passengers are required to place their pets in a cage before boarding. They must also ensure taxi cleanliness throughout the journey to avoid incurring (招致、遭受) an additional cleaning fee. They said the taxi fare is metered as a regular yellow cab service. But officials caution that those who choose non-traditional ones with various sizes and functions should pay attention to how they charge. Afghanistan Flash Floods Leave Dead and Missing Flash floods in northern Afghanistan sweep away livelihoods (生計), leaving hundreds dead and missing AP correspodnent Karen Chammas reports on floods in Afghanistan. Russia Putin Proposes Removing Defense Minister Russian President Vladimir Putin has proposed removing Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu from his post. Putin nominated First Deputy Prime Minister Andrey Belousov for the role. The change comes weeks after a Russian deputy defense minister in charge of military construction projects, was jailed pending an investigation and trial on charges of bribery (受賄). In line with Russian law, the entire Russian cabinet resigned on Tuesday when Putin began his fifth presidential term at a Kremlin inauguration. The announcement came as Ukrainian officials say thousands more civilians have fled Russia's renewed ground offensive in Ukraine's northeast. The attacks have targeted towns and villages with a barrage of artillery and mortar shelling. The intense battles have forced at least one Ukrainian unit to withdraw in the Kharkiv region. This is a loss of more land to Russian forces across less defended settlements in the so-called contested gray zone along the Russian border. Prince Harry Meghan Visit Nigeria Britain's Prince Harry and his wife Meghan are visiting Lagos, Nigeria. They are promoting mental health for soldiers and empowering young people. The couple visited a local charity using sports to empower young people. Meghan and Harry later attended a fundraiser for Nigeria's soldiers wounded in the country's fight against Islamic extremists and other armed groups in the country's conflict-battered (連續猛擊) north. The event was related to Harry's Invictus Games, which Nigeria is seeking to host in the future.
