The annual Newton Taiwan Day Festival was held in Taiwan Garden next to the Cultural Center of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Boston on May 4. A ROC flag-raising ceremony kicked off the event. Newton City Mayor Ruthanne Fuller, Councilor John Rice and MA State Representatives Kay Khan and Donald Wong joined in the celebration that included Taiwanese cultural music, dance, and tasty foods.
Director-General and Mrs. Douglas Y. T. Hsu of TECO-Boston, and all staff members and their families, attended the event as well. A Variety of souvenirs, pamphlets, and brochures were available at the TECO-Boston booth for guests. We also made video clips of the participants in support of Taiwan’s participation in the 2019 World Health Assembly.
