Other officials from the Taiwan Embassy also attended.

Items on the buffet menu were salad, vegetable spring rolls, steamed white rice, stewed mutton, fish in garlic butter sauce as well as Kung Pao chicken.

Speaking with this reporter, Ambassador Lee highlighted the importance of the media saying: “Media is one of the fastest and efficient ways to keep people informed and updated about current affairs.”

He added: “The partnership between our Embassy and local media here in St. Kitts and Nevis contributes to informing the public about our Embassy’s activities, ongoing cooperation projects and also the development of relations between our two nations.”

When asked about the choice of food provided he singled out one dish in particular which was specially prepared in an effort to share the Taiwanese culture.
