First ever Taiwan Expo 2018 in India to have exclusive Tourism Pavilion
Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), Taiwan’s foremost trade promotion organisation is all set to organize first ever ‘TaiwanExpo’ at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi, India on May 17-19, 2018.
The expo will showcase Taiwan’s latest technologies, eco-friendly products and industrial prowess through eight themed pavilions along with eight specialised industry areas dedicated to diverse industry verticals including green products, smart cities, EV Alliance, healthcare, tourism, food processing machinery, textiles, automobiles, sports, agriculture, ICT products, Mandarin education and business service. Around 130 exhibitors from Taiwan will present their high quality products and services at the much awaited event.
While meeting media at the Familiarization trip, James Huang, Chairman, TAITRA, shared, “India is a great country and great civilisation and more I get to know the country, more common grounds I found between India and Taiwan in social values and cultural background. Although the government promoted a Southbound Policy in the 1990s, the TSAI government is today pushing a new direction and integrating this policy into policies relating to South Asia. This constitutes the biggest difference between the New Southbound Policy and the previous Southbound policies. At present, the core spirit of Taiwan’s New Southbound Policy is based on comprehensive and long-term exchange and relations with New Southbound countries, through multiple exchanges and cooperation initiatives in the spheres of industry, investment, trade, talent, culture, and tourism.”
“In 2016, Taiwan receives approx 36,000 Indian tourists which was very less as compared to the size of your population. This number includes students, professionals from India. We have every intention to attract leisure tourists from India market and for the same, in Taiwan Expo 2018 in May in New Delhi, there will be an exclusive pavilion for Travel and Tourism. Apart from this we will be developing special programs to attract Indian tourists,” he added.
Another segment, which Taiwan is eyeing is Wedding market. Recently Indian Businessman K K Modi came to Taiwan for his birthday party with approx 200 guests, including 36 ships. Taiwan is looking forward to host many more such social events.
