ROC (Taiwan) Ambassador Winston Chen visited Tobolar CoConut Processing Authority on May 21 and was briefed how the ship “Tobolar 1” benefits the copra production and the livelihood of the outer islands. “Tobolar 1” was donated by R.O.C. (Taiwan) to Tobolar in February 2013. Tobolar said the ship has made 11 trips so far since last year. Each time the ship could collect 200 tons of copra and, in the mean time, provide rice, flour, canned food and pigs to the people on the outer islands. Increased ship service also results in greater tonnage of copra brought into processing and more revenue to Tobolar. Ambassador Chen highly praised Tobolar’s remarkable contributions to the local economy and the people in the outer islands, and once again pledged the strong commitment to the sustainable development of the Marshall Islands.
