TAIPEI (TVBS News) — President Tsai Ing-wen stressed on Wednesday (Nov. 1) Taiwan's willingness to welcome professionals worldwide to work, invest, and live in the country.
Speaking at the inauguration of the launch press conference of the "International Talent Taiwan Office," Tsai expressed hope the one-stop service will assist foreign talent with visa procedures, employment, living arrangements, and educational matters for their children.

This friend's experience highlighted the difficulties talents from diverse backgrounds might face in adapting to Taiwan's culture and system, she added.
