With the theme “Excellent Lifestyles”, the Taiwan Excellence 2015 campaign aims to show Filipinos how Taiwan products have evolved to conform to world class standards. Actress Maja Salvador has been announced as the campaign’s endorser.
Convinced of the strong potential of Taiwan products in the Philippines, the Bureau of Foreign Trade (BOFT, Taiwan) and the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), which backed up Taiwan Excellence 2014, are again supporting the campaign on its second run. The Philippines was the third largest export partner of Taiwan among ASEAN countries in 2014, amounting to USD 9.53 billion. For the same year, the country was also the 11th largest trade partner of Taiwan in the world, with bilateral trade amounting to USD 11.6 billion.
Maja Salvador is happy to sign up as the first participant in the Taiwan Excellence Made to Enjoy Singing, one of several activities the campaign has lined up for this year. Maja is assisted by a product girl (right) in holding up her sign up card.
Central to the 2015 campaign is the announcement of actress Maja Salvador as Taiwan Excellence 2015 campaign endorser. She will be taking part in all the campaign’s activities slated for this year and which will be open to all Filipino consumers. (See list of activities below.)
