Many cooperation programs between Kiribati and Taiwan have begun, Samuel Chen (陳世良), Taiwan's ambassador to Kiribati, said during Chien's visit there.
A local media agency, the Broadcasting and Publications Authority, which ran a story on the opening of Taiwan's embassy in Kiribati, is seeking assistance to improve its printing technology.
The agency consists of a publication manager, an editor, an assistant editor, two reporters, two printers and one typist.
The main function of the agency is to "produce a weekly bilingual newspaper aiming at informing local readers about a variety of events and issues that occur within the community, the government, the Pacific region and the world," said Tibewere Bobo, the publication manager.
The agency produces a weekly called Te Uekera meaning "The Tree of Knowledge."
