On January 1, 2024, the Alumni Association of the Huangpu Military Academy’s Greater Washington Chapter, the ROC Veterans Association in Washington, D.C., and the Taiwanese Association of America’s Greater Washington Chapter held a New Year's flag-raising ceremony outdoors at Richard Montgomery High School in Rockville, Maryland.
TECRO Deputy Representative Robin Cheng attended the ceremony on behalf of Ambassador Alexander Yui along with TECRO staff and their families. Deputy Rep. Cheng expressed gratitude for the tireless efforts of the host associations to contribute to our country and commended the meaningful tradition of organizing this event over the years. Deputy Rep. Cheng reflected on the achievements of Taiwan-U.S. relations in 2023, saying he looks forward to strengthening ties between Taiwan and the United State in the future.
The flag-raising ceremony was conducted in a simple yet dignified manner. Approximately 300 compatriots from the greater Washington, D.C. area, undeterred by the cold, gathered on the first day of the new year to cheer for Taiwan and the United States. Wishing everyone a happy New Year and all the best in the coming year!
