Taiwan has opened its newest office in the US, with Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung traveling to Arizona for the inauguration. The Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Phoenix is Taiwan’s 14th office in the US and is located in a city that hosts two TSMC semiconductor fabrication plants and a growing network of Taiwanese suppliers. The new office is aimed at strengthening cooperation on critical supply chains between Taipei and Washington. Lin arrived in Phoenix on Saturday after visits to Belize and Guatemala, Taiwan’s two diplomatic allies in Central America.
