The Overseas Community Affairs Council (OCAC) enlisted Formosa Circus Art (FOCA) to implement the 2020 Lunar New Year Goodwill Mission Asia Tour. The Mission held a pre-departure public performance at Tungnan University’s Gymnasium on December 25, 2019. With Leaping Taiwan as the theme, the show combined traditional acrobatics with songs, postures, dance and other forms of performance to express the charm of Taiwan’s diverse culture and its boundless vitality. The performance was warmly received by 600 Tungnan University students and teachers and locals of New Taipei City’s Shenkeng District.
Giving a speech, OCAC section chief Jung Yu-o thanked Tungnan University’s president for attending and also thanked the team from the university for assisting and supporting this pre-departure public performance. She also explained the mission of cultural diplomacy, winning international friends and raising the profile of Taiwan of such cultural missions dispatched on overseas tours by the OCAC.
The 2020 Lunar New Year Goodwill Mission Asia Tour will perform in Japan, the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia from January 27 to February 13, 2020.
