By BBN Staff: The governments of Belize and Taiwan signed a new agreement that extends the two countries’ bilateral cooperation agreements up to 2025.

The Government of Belize Press Office said yesterday that “Hon. Eamon Courtenay, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Foreign Trade and Immigration of Belize, and H.E. Remus Li-Kuo Chen, Ambassador of the Republic of China (Taiwan), signed the 2021-2025 memorandum of understanding (MOU) on Bilateral Cooperation between the Government of Belize and Government of the Republic of China (Taiwan) at Laing Building in Belize City.”

The GOB Press Office further said, “This MOU succeeds the 2017-2020 agreement and is complementary to the long-standing development cooperation program between the Republic of China (Taiwan) and Belize.”

The agreement reportedly said that in the spirit of mutual interest, shared core values, and good diplomatic ties, “the two governments are committed to deepening cooperation and collaboration.”

That collaboration, among other areas, concentrates on public health, agriculture, trade, education, women’s empowerment, and the environment.

The intent, the GOB Press Office said, is to safeguard the wellness and welfare of the peoples of both Belize and Taiwan while driving sustainable development over the next five years.
