On January 13, 2021, Ambassador Jessica Lee of the Republic of China (Taiwan) to Palau donated 100 tons of Taiwan’s good quality white rice to the Palau government. The Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Environment accepted the donation on behalf of the government of Palau.
The donated 100 tons of white rice, in 30 Kg sacks, took five 20 foot containers to transport from Taiwan to Palau. The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Environment will distribute the donated rice in the following days. The government and the people of Taiwan hope this donation will help Palau residents on food security and showing their love to Palau.
