Keeping this in mind and to foster further trade development between Taiwan and India, Taiwan’s Bureau of Foreign Trade (BOFT) of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA), and the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), a non- profit trade promotion organization, announced the sixth edition of the Taiwan Excellence Campaign.

"In 2015 and beyond, with prospect of the Government of India’s economic initiatives, Taiwan is bullish about continuous building a stronger bilateral business tie with India and broadening its innovative products’ presence in India. The products being showcased here are reliable, innovative, and remarkable. I am certain that Indian consumers will enjoy great new products from Taiwan that will make their lives more convenient and pleasurable," Yang said.
