Before becoming president, Lai Ching-te takes heads of allied nations shrimping

2024-05-19

On the eve of his inauguration, president-elect Lai Ching-te gave eight heads of Taiwan’s allied nations a sample of local culture; he took them shrimping.

But Sunday wasn’t the first time he fraternized with foreign dignitaries. In 2021, he took then-AIT director Brent Christensen, head of the British Office Taipei, as well as Singapore’s representative in Taiwan on a hike on Alishan to show them the beauty of Taiwan’s mountains and forests. Lai has often shared the local cuisine and culture with foreign guests to draw them closer to Taiwan. After he assumes the office of the president, his brand of creative diplomacy will likely continue.
