立法院江啟臣副院長代表韓國瑜院長，於本（8）月24日至26日率領由跨黨派委員組成的14人代表團，赴日本東京參加「亞洲太平洋國會議員聯合會」（APPU）第88屆理事會暨第54屆大會。訪團於本（8月26）日晚間返抵國門，江副院長隨即於機場發表簡短談話，向國人分享此次赴日訪問的具體成果。
From August 24 to 26, Legislative Yuan Vice President Dr. Johnny C. Chiang (江啟臣) led a 14-member cross-party delegation to Tokyo to attend the 88th Council Meeting and 54th General Assembly of Asian-Pacific Parliamentarians' Union (APPU) on behalf of Legislative Yuan President Daniel K.Y. Han (韓國瑜). Upon returning to Taiwan on the evening of August 26, Vice President Chiang delivered brief remarks at the airport, sharing the tangible results of the visit with the public.
江副院長表示，本次訪日主要有三項成果：
Vice President Chiang highlighted three main achievements of the visit:
首先，短短的三天訪問中，訪團積極參與我國以中華民國（台灣）名義正式參與的APPU會議。去（2025）年大會及理事會在台北舉行。本屆會議由日本舉辦，主題為「維護自由開放經濟秩序及強化區域供應鏈韌性之議會間合作」。我國所提決議案涵蓋建立民主與韌性的供應鏈體系、增進糧食供應鏈韌性，以及深化印太海洋環境保護合作等三大議題，均獲採納通過，並納入聯合公報。
First, during the three-day visit, the delegation actively participated in the APPU meetings under the name “Republic of China (Taiwan).” Last year, the 2025 General Assembly and Council Meeting were held in Taipei. This year, the baton was passed to Japan under the theme “Inter-Parliamentary Cooperation for Maintaining a Free and Open Economic Order and Strengthening Regional Supply Chain Resilience.” Resolutions proposed by Taiwan encompassed three key issues: building democratic and resilient supply chain systems, enhancing food supply chain resilience, and deepening cooperation on marine environmental protection in the Indo-Pacific. All resolutions were adopted and incorporated into the joint communiqué.
其次，訪團發揮國會外交精神，充分利用會議空檔與日方進行交流，分別與「日本台灣友好議員聯盟」會長古屋圭司眾議員及13位參、眾議員會晤，並與自民黨總務會長有村治子參議員及青年局7名友我議員互動，進一步深化台日情誼。
Second, in the spirit of parliamentary diplomacy, the delegation made full use of breaks between meetings to engage with its Japanese counterparts. The delegates met with Chairman Furuya Keiji of the Japan-Taiwan Diet Members’ Consultative Council and 13 Diet members. They also engaged with House of Councillors member Arimura Haruko, Chairperson of the Liberal Democratic Party’s General Council, and seven pro-Taiwan lawmakers from the party’s Youth Division, further deepening Taiwan-Japan friendship.
第三，訪團與出席APPU的各國議會代表熱烈互動，包含我國友邦馬紹爾群島、吐瓦魯及帛琉三國議長或副議長，進一步鞏固邦誼及促進國會間友誼；另亦與菲律賓、關島等國家及地區與會代表互動，積極推動國會外交。
Third, the delegation had cordial exchanges with parliamentary representatives at the APPU meetings, including the speakers or deputy speakers from Taiwan’s three diplomatic allies, namely the Marshall Islands, Tuvalu, and Palau, strengthening diplomatic ties and inter-parliamentary friendship. The delegation also engaged with representatives from other participating countries and territories, including the Philippines and Guam, actively advancing parliamentary diplomacy.
最後，江副院長特別感謝本次一同出訪的跨黨派代表團成員，肯定委員們團結一致參與APPU各項活動、積極與各國國會議員交流，攜手推動國會外交的努力與貢獻。（2026/08/26）
In closing, Vice President Chiang expressed his special appreciation to the members of the cross-party delegation. He commended their unity in participating in APPU activities, their active engagement with fellow parliamentarians, and their collective efforts and contributions to advancing parliamentary diplomacy.
