The command center pointed out that, in view of the epidemic situation in Taiwan is still serious, in the domestic COVID-19 (Chinese communist virus) vaccine window, if the Japanese government is willing to immediately lend a helping hand, Taiwan will certainly also feel very warm, but related matters are respected by the Japanese government’s discussions and arrangements, but also hope to proceed with follow-up operations as soon as possible.
