On November 13th, Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) Chairman Huang Chi-Fang led a delegation of 18 countries in Taiwan on the "2020 Taiwan Science and Technology and Innovation Tour" to visit Nanliu, a major manufacturer of non-woven fabrics. During the visit, Mr. Huang Ching-shan, Chairman of Nanliu, announced to the 18 delegates that Nanliu would donate 200,000 masks to each of the visiting countries (regions). In addition to expressing their heartfelt thanks, the representatives in Taiwan said that the people of their own countries would surely feel the love from Taiwan. Including the 3.6 million masks donated this time, the number of masks donated to countries around the world by Nanluo Corporation will exceed 10 million.

Huang Chih-fang, chairman of the Foreign Trade Association, said that the impact of the epidemic has prevented Taiwanese businessmen from expanding their business abroad, and the same foreign businessmen have also suffered difficulties in coming to Taiwan for business negotiations, and that one of the best ways to do so is to let the organizations stationed in Taiwan act as a bridge between Taiwan and other countries for business contacts; at the same time, with the full support of the Bureau of International Trade of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the Association is organizing the "2020 Tour of Taiwan Science and Technology and Innovation", and inviting representatives of the various organizations stationed in Taiwan to visit Taiwan's outstanding industries and commercial officers to allow the representatives to recommend Taiwan's outstanding enterprises to their own governments and enterprises, At the same time, with the full support of the Bureau of International Trade of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the HKTC organized the "2020 Taiwan Technology and Innovation Tour" program, inviting representatives and commercial officials from various countries in Taiwan to visit Taiwan's outstanding industries, and allowing the representatives to recommend Taiwan's outstanding enterprises to their own governments and enterprises.

Chairman of Nanliu, Mr. Ching-Shan Huang, mentioned in an interview that although the new pneumonia vaccine has recently been introduced, due to the limitations of the vaccine's production capacity and effectiveness, masks will still be a long-term necessity for human beings; coupled with the fact that this epidemic has brought about significant harm to the economies of the world and the health of the public, even if the epidemic ends in the future, the demand for anti-epidemic products and establishment of an independent anti-epidemic industry in various countries will still persist, so Nanliu will continue to invest in non-woven fabrics for medical products, such as face masks, protective clothing, and isolation suits. Therefore, Nanliu will continue to invest in non-woven fabrics for medical products such as masks, protective garments, and isolation garments. Nanliu is the largest non-woven fabric manufacturer in Taiwan and the second largest in Asia, and is also an important member of the national epidemic prevention team. The visit by the Taiwan Trade Development Council (TDC) is a successful arrangement, and he is willing to assist countries in building up their epidemic prevention industries in the future, and he expects that this contribution will enhance Taiwan's international image.
