AIT EVENTS
| 2007/08/22
| "Doors to Diplomacy" website contest Award Ceremony;
When we at the American Institute in Taiwan found out about the winners of the State Department's highly-competitive, world-wide "Doors to Diplomacy" website contest, we were very proud to learn that they were from right here in Taiwan. On behalf of Director Young and all my AIT colleagues, I'd like to express our congratulations to Chang Chia-wei, Hung Chin-ting, Chao Shu-han, and Chen Yen-yu, and to the teachers and administrators of Ming-Dao High School in Taichung. I have spent a little time studying their award-winning website, which is called: "The Role of Taiwan in World Health -- International Medical Aid," and it's no wonder they won.
