Somaliland Representative Office in Taiwan Unveiled Today, Deepening the Friendship Between the Two
Today (9th), Minister of Foreign Affairs Joseph Wu and Somaliland’s first Representative to Taiwan Mohamed Omar Hagi Mohamoud held an unveiling ceremony for the Somaliland Representative Office in Taiwan. DPP Spokesperson Peifen Hsieh claimed this is a concrete development of good relations between Somaliland and Taiwan.
Spokesperson Hsieh stated that both Taiwan and Somaliland seriously value the establishment of the Somaliland Representative Office in Taiwan. President of Somaliland Muse Bihi Abdi expressed his blessings over a video, claiming that Taiwan and Somaliland are both members of the democratic camp and should use such common values to develop good relations between the two countries further.
Spokesperson Hsieh expressed that in 2009, Taiwan and Somaliland had already been cooperating in areas such as medical care, education, and maritime security.
