December 10, 2006

Director General R. C. Wu hosted a luncheon at his residence on December 10 for reviewing this year’s overseas compatriot affairs. More than 60 Taiwanese community leaders, including two commissioners, Dr. Sue-ling Wang and C. S. Chen, gathered and had a very lively discussion on matters of their mutual concern.

Commissioner Dr. Wang stated that he has admitted all proposals to Deputy Minister Yang-Huang of Taiwan Compatriot Affairs Commission and gained proper answers and solutions. Commissioner Chen regretted that he did not consult fully with Taiwanese community recently and promised to do more in the future, so as to offer better service to the community.

Mr. Jack Huang, Culture Center Director of TECO, also reviewed the compatriot affairs for the year of 2006 and expressed satisfactions and thanks for all the assistance from Taiwanese community. He stated the future plans and measures for 2007 and pledged to improve and to provide Taiwanese community in Atlanta with the best service possible. D-G Wu expressed his sincere gratitude for all the support of Taiwanese community in assisting TECO and wished the Taiwanese community a prosperous new year.

僑務工作說明會

駐亞特蘭大台北經濟文化辦事處處長吳榮泉日前舉辦年終僑務工作說明會，邀請僑團負責人參與，剛參加全球僑務會議的僑務委員王德與陳獻士也與會說明參加會議的情形。

王德致詞時，先把這次回台灣參加僑務會議前，在亞特蘭大聽取僑社的意見重述一遍，但他表示，由於僑務會議的議程緊湊，他無法在大會中提出僑社的反應，然而他在私下的會面中，已經把這些建議向僑務委員會副委員長楊黃美幸做了說明。 陳獻士致詞表示，僑社的互動似嫌不夠，他將繼續接受各界的指教，前僑務委員趙增義也簡單致詞。

黃正杰回憶過去一年來的工作指出，台灣傳統周及雙十國慶台灣文化訪演團活動，都吸引許多主流社會人士觀賞，提高了台灣在國際的能見度；此間僑團也協助發起聲援台灣參與國際組織，包括聯合國和世界衛生組織之活動，為台灣發聲。在僑商方面，該中心將持續輔助海外僑商回台投資及採購，參與台灣經濟建設，並配合政府「觀光客倍增計畫」，鼓勵僑胞回台灣觀光。

吳榮泉最後致詞感謝僑胞在台灣身處外交困境下，仍持續協助該處拓展國民外交。
