Share
On behalf of the Republic of China (Taiwan), Representative Matthew W. Chou of the Taipei Liaison Office in the RSA handed over 3,000 blankets and 10 wheelchairs on 24 August, 2018 to aid the under-privileged communities throughout the country. Eight Members of South African Parliament attended the ceremony held in Thaba Nchu Community Hall to show support to this charitable act.
Representative Chou indicated that Taiwan is a country that values human rights and an equal society, and the Taiwan Government is honoured to join forces with Taiwan’s NGOs to make a contribution to the local people. By giving away and spreading “Love from Taiwan,” he hopes the donated goods will go a long way to ease hardships of the under-privileged and that there will be further friendly relations between South Africa and Taiwan.
Nearly 200 local people attended the ceremony and received the donated goods. They thanked the Taiwan Government for its helping hand by prayers and songs.
