The official website of Taiwan’s Ministry of Culture (MOC) is now available in Malay and Thai, in addition to its current versions including English, Japanese, Spanish, French, and Indonesian. Continuing to align with the New Southbound Policy and fostering cultural exchanges with Malaysia and Thailand, the launch of the new websites aims to reach out to a broader audience from Southeast Asian countries to deepen their understanding on the achievements of the cultural exchange programs of the New Southbound Policy and become more interested in Taiwan’s arts and culture.
The MOC’s Malay and Thai websites introduce the ministry's role and functions as well as provide resources and content to spark international cultural exchanges and promote Taiwanese culture. Additionally, they highlight the achievements of the international collaborations supported by the MOC’s overseas offices in Malaysia and Thailand. The ministry hopes that the new websites will become a gateway to cross-cultural interaction for the Southeast Asian community.
To further introduce Taiwan’s arts and culture to the audiences in the Southeast Asian region, the Malay and Thai websites include a “Cultural Features” section that spotlights cultural maestros, contemporary artists, and cultural landscapes and venues. Stay tuned for more exciting content!
With the addition of Malay and Thai versions to the MOC’s website, the ministry will continue to develop more portals to connect with diverse global communities, showcasing Taiwan’s cultural diversity while creating platforms for the world to discover Taiwan.
