Nine Indonesian scholars have been invited to visit Taiwan on a program Taiwan Study Camp for Future Leaders 2010 which will be held on Nov 12-21.
The scholars consisting of young university researchers and staff at the House of Representatives would join the Taiwan program along with 51 other participants from Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, New Zealand and Australia.
"This program is designed to promote Taiwan to the world. Through this trip, we want to show Taiwan as a democratic country with economically prosperous prospects," the head of Taiwan`s Trade and Economic Office (TETO), Andrew Hsia, said here on Wednesday during a meeting with the nine Indonesian scholars.
He expressed hope that the participants from Indonesia would be good ambassador to Taiwan by sharing their trip`s experience to their friends and relatives in Indonesia.
Syaiful, one of the nine scholars to visit Taiwan, expressed appreciation to Taiwan for their invitation to visit the country.
"Indonesia-Taiwan relations must not stop only in the trade sector. I can see that this visiting program is one of the examples of Taiwan`s effort to begin a new sector of cooperation specifically in people to people contact and I really appreciate it," said Syaiful.
In Taiwan, the participants of the Taiwan Study Camp for Future Leaders will meet important figures from Taiwan`s government, NGOs and observers. They will also visit the 2010 Taipei International Flora, get a better understanding of the tea culture in Taiwan, experience Taiwan`s traditional and modern drama and people`s activities and interact with local youth.
