In this episode of Asia Pacific Conversations, we turn a spotlight on Taiwan following two recent APF Canada interactions with Asia’s high-tech powerhouse – the Taipei Security Dialogue in Taiwan on September 12 and an APF Canada event in Vancouver with Taipei Economic and Cultural Office Canada Representative Dr. Harry Tseng on September 9.
Featuring a conversation with our Vice-President Research & Strategy Vina Nadjibulla, who participated in the security dialogue in Taipei and moderated our public event with Dr. Tseng, this episode explores Taiwan’s security amid the global security challenges posed by China’s rise, the island’s competition for leadership in advanced chip and emerging technologies, the geopolitical implications of that competition, Taiwan’s quest for international partnerships and support, and opportunities for future Canada-Taiwan co-operation.
