立法院韓國瑜院長本（9月30）日晚間在「中華民國立法院世界台商之友會」副會長民進黨鍾佳濱委員、王正旭委員、陳培瑜委員、國民黨陳永康委員、民眾黨洪毓祥委員的陪同下，款宴「非洲台灣商會聯合總會回國訪問團」一行。
On the evening of September 30, Legislative Yuan President Daniel K.Y. Han (韓國瑜) hosted a dinner banquet for a homecoming delegation from the Africa Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce (ATCC), accompanied by DPP Legislator Chung Chia-Pin, vice president of the Association of Overseas Taiwanese Businessmen of the Legislative Yuan. Also in attendance were DPP Legislators Dr. Wang Cheng-Hsu and Chen Pei-Yu, KMT Legislator Adm. Chen Yeong-Kang, and TPP Legislator Dr. Hung Yu-Hsiang.
韓院長首先誠摯歡迎訪團蒞臨，繼表示，「非洲台灣商會聯合總會」從1995年正式成立至今，已走過30多個年頭。當年，許多台商提著一個皮箱，一張單程機票，遠赴非洲打拼，在海外靠努力而獲致成功，迄今已造就日不落台商的榮景。每一位台商背後都有動人故事，凡陽光普照之處，皆有台商身影。
President Han began by extending a sincere welcome to the delegation. He noted that more than three decades had passed since the ATCC was established in 1995. He recalled that in those early years, many Taiwanese businesspeople set out for Africa with only one suitcase and a one-way ticket, achieving success through hard work. He remarked that they have helped build a thriving Taiwanese business community all over the world. He lauded Taiwanese business people, noting that behind each of them lies a moving story and that wherever the sun shines, Taiwanese businesspeople can be found.
院長接續表示，台灣土地面積小、天然資源稀少，卻靠著努力，從加工出口區開始一路開創出新竹科學園區，40多年後的今天，竹科企業一年產出數兆元產值，創造出許多就業，也貢獻政府稅收、回饋股東，讓台灣在世界舞台發光發熱。高科技產業之外，台灣在食衣住行育樂各方面也擁有許多隱形冠軍，無論是衣服、帽子、球類、腳踏車、刀叉、聖誕燈飾等台灣都有廠商獨霸全球，讓台灣享譽全球。
President Han went on to mention that despite its limited land and natural resources, Taiwan has progressed from establishing export processing zones to developing the Hsinchu Science Park (HSP). He highlighted that today, more than four decades later, companies in the HSP generate trillions of New Taiwan dollars in annual output value, create numerous jobs, contribute tax revenue, and deliver returns to shareholders, enabling Taiwan to shine on the world stage. He noted that besides high-tech industries, Taiwan is also home to many “hidden champions” across all areas of daily life, including food, clothing, housing, transportation, education, and recreation. He praised Taiwanese businesspeople for their leading positions in global markets for products ranging from garments, hats, and sports balls to bicycles, cutlery, and Christmas lights, earning Taiwan worldwide recognition.
院長特別感謝海外台商在經營事業之餘，不忘心繫台灣，並時常樂善好施回饋當地。台商在非洲成立友善之家做公益，而當台灣發生921大地震、花蓮堰塞湖災情、南部水災等天災急難，台商都慷慨解囊幫助國家、同胞，立法院各黨派委員都很感謝並重視海外台商朋友。
President Han expressed appreciation to overseas Taiwanese businesspeople for keeping Taiwan close to their hearts while managing their businesses and for frequently giving back to their local communities. He commended Taiwanese businesspeople for establishing the “Friendship House” in Africa for charitable initiatives. He also highlighted their generous contributions to help Taiwan and its people in times of natural disaster and emergency, including the 921 Earthquake, the barrier-lake disaster in Hualien, and flooding in southern Taiwan. He emphasized that legislators across party lines deeply appreciate these contributions and value overseas Taiwanese businesspeople.
院長指出，他特別重視中文教育，並建議僑委會聯合學術單位大力推動下一代海外僑胞的中文教育。考量台灣外交困境，立法院三黨委員都很重視海外僑胞，也會支持僑委會預算，並期盼明年能有機會籌組跨黨派委員團訪問非洲，關懷當地僑胞。
President Han stressed that he attaches great importance to Chinese-language education and recommended that the Overseas Community Affairs Council (OCAC) work with academic institutions to promote Chinese-language education for the next generation of overseas compatriots. In light of Taiwan’s diplomatic challenges, legislators from all three parties hold overseas compatriots in high regard and will also support the OCAC’s budget. He also expressed the hope of organizing a cross-party legislative delegation to visit Africa next year to show care and support for Taiwanese compatriots in the region.
院長最後表示，雙十國慶將至，誠摯歡迎各位僑胞朋友共襄盛舉，一起為中華民國慶生，也祝福各位台商都能事業興旺，闔家平安，常回台灣。
In closing, President Han noted that the Double Tenth Day (National Day) was approaching and warmly invited overseas compatriots to join the festivities and celebrate the Republic of China’s birthday together. He also wished all Taiwanese businesspeople prosperity in their businesses and peace and well-being for their families, and encouraged them to return to Taiwan more often.
明翠中總會長代表非洲台商總會致詞表示，感謝韓院長及跨黨派委員撥冗接待。她指出，台商人在海外，始終心繫台灣發展，她逐一介紹訪問團成員，包含許多新生代非洲年輕台商，期盼年輕世代也能持續支持台灣。
In her remarks, Ming Tsui-Chung, president of the ATCC, thanked President Han and legislators from across party lines for taking the time to receive the delegation. She noted that although Taiwanese businesspeople live overseas, they always keep Taiwan’s development close to their hearts. She introduced the delegation members one by one, including many young Taiwanese businesspeople in Africa, and expressed the hope that the younger generation would continue to support Taiwan.
