【🍊顛覆你的既定印象！看小小金桔如何變身文青潮味！】
過年必備的金桔盆栽、日式料理的提味配角、夜市裡清涼的金桔檸檬飲……這是我們熟悉的金桔印象，但你可知道，這顆酸香多汁的小果實，整株都是寶？❤️
在嘉義民雄的紅土地上，藏著一場跨越四代人的「酸甜進化論」。面對金桔「皮甜、汁酸、籽苦」的天性，蔡家四代人守著「優良品質是所求」的堅持，與食研所攜手研發低溫糖漬的 #水晶金桔，將不受青睞的小果，化為飽滿多汁的一口酥。
如今，代代接力，讓傳統加工廠華麗變身，第三代經營者轉型成 @民雄金桔觀光工廠 ，第四代則注入美學設計，推出「Geli」品牌。老派的酸甜滋味，化作層次分明的桔香咖啡、金桔酥，甚至是風味餐裡的烤雞與滷茶葉蛋，實踐全果利用的極致加值！🍊
👉快點開，看小小金桔如何華麗變身，翻轉出文青潮滋味！

In Taiwan, kumquats are usually just garnishes. But one family in Chiayi is transforming this tart fruit into a modern culinary masterpiece. 🍊
For four generations, the Tsai family has perfected the Minxiong kumquat. Embracing its tricky traits—sweet skin, sour juice, and bitter seeds—they launched the stylish brand Geli to create a zero-waste menu.
Crystal Kumquats — Candied whole fruits crafted to offset bitter seeds for a sweet, juicy bite.
Kumquat Pastries — A zesty twist on Taiwan’s classic fruit cakes.
Kumquat Coffee — A layered, aromatic citrus brew.
Savory Delights — Roast chicken and tea eggs infused with kumquat leaves.

#澳英部長級諮商｜重申台海和平穩定至關重要！
日前 #英國🇬🇧 外交大臣古柏及時任國防大臣希利與 #澳洲🇦🇺 外交部長黃英賢及國防部長馬勒斯在倫敦舉行「澳英部長級諮商」，兩國在聯合聲明中強調：
▶ 維護台海和平穩定至關重要
▶ 反對片面改變現狀的行動，並鼓勵對話而非脅迫或使用武力
▶ 關切中國在台灣周邊進行破壞區域穩定的的軍演
▶ 持續支持台灣有意義參與國際組織
▶ 致力深化與台灣在經貿、科技及文化的交流
佳龍部長歡迎及肯定英澳兩國連續三年聯合公開表達對台灣的支持。外交部會持續與英澳及其他理念相近國家合作，維護 #台海和平穩定、拓展台灣的國際參與，共同促進印太區域的安全與繁榮。
UK Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper, then Defense Secretary John Healey, Australian Minister for Foreign Affairs Penny Wong - Senator for SA and Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Defense of Australia Richard Marles MP met recently for the Australia-UK Ministerial Consultations before issuing a joint statement, which included:
▶ reaffirming the critical importance of Taiwan Strait peace and stability,
▶ opposing any unilateral action to change the status quo and encouraging dialogue rather than coercion or the use of force
▶ expressing concern over the impact of PRC military exercises on regional stability,
▶ supporting our meaningful participation in international organizations,
▶ and reaffirming their commitment to deepen relations with Taiwan in the economic, trade, scientific, technological, and cultural fields.
MOFA Minister Lin Chia-lung welcomes and commends the statement, the third of its kind in so many years. Taiwan will continue to work closely with like-minded partners, like the UK🇬🇧 and Australia🇦🇺, to uphold the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait, boost Taiwan's participation in the international community, and defend the rules-based international order and the security and prosperity of the Indo-Pacific region.

【強烈譴責中國公務船公然首度侵擾我國太平島水域！】
繼中國公務船日前非法襲擾我國東部海域自由航行的貨輪，6月11日上午中國2艘公務船公然首度侵擾我國 #太平島 水域，再度惡意侵害我國主權權益、海事安全，並嚴重威脅區域和平，外交部予以嚴厲譴責並重申：
🔹 中華民國台灣與中華人民共和國互不隸屬
🔹 南海諸島屬於中華民國領土，中華民國對南海諸島及其相關海域享有國際法及海洋法上的權利，不容置疑，更不容挑戰。
中國政府惡意無理的行徑不僅嚴重違反國際法及 #聯合國海洋法公約，更是對國際秩序的公然挑釁，外交部呼籲國際社會正視中國此次非法行動對區域和平穩定所造成嚴重、立即的危害，並共同反制中國的違法行徑。
我國在南海是維持和平穩定的一方，政府也將繼續致力守護海域安全，並持續爭取理念相近國家支持與我國共同維護印太安全。
MOFA strongly condemns the brazen and unprecedented intrusion into waters around Taiping Island by PRC government vessels and urges the international community to jointly counter the PRC’s illegal actions!
Two PRC government vessels committed a brazen and unprecedented intrusion into waters around Taiwan’s Taiping Island on the morning of June 11.
Following the illegal harassment by PRC government vessels of cargo ships exercising their right to freedom of navigation in Taiwan’s eastern waters in recent days, this was another hostile escalation of gray-zone activities and part of a pattern of aggressive behavior that constitutes a grave threat to Taiwan’s sovereign rights and interests and maritime security, as well as regional peace.
The PRC government’s unreasonable activities are a serious breach of international law and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and a flagrant attempt to undermine the international order.
MOFA solemnly condemns the PRC’s unlawful actions, which harm Taiwan’s sovereignty, undermine regional peace and stability, and challenge the international order.
Furthermore, MOFA reiterates that neither the ROC (Taiwan) nor the People’s Republic of China (PRC) is subordinate to the other and that the South China Sea Islands are part of the territory of the ROC. That the ROC enjoys all rights over the South China Sea Islands and their relevant waters in accordance with international law and the law of the sea is beyond dispute and challenge. The incursion of PRC government vessels into the waters surrounding Taiping Island has severely violated Taiwan’s sovereignty and jeopardized the safety of Taiwanese vessels and personnel. The PRC’s malicious provocations and heavy-handed actions have severely contravened the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, other international laws pertaining to maritime safety, and the law of the sea. They have blatantly challenged the international order and disrupted regional peace, security, and stability.
MOFA once again urges the international community to recognize the serious and immediate threat that the PRC’s illegal actions pose to regional peace and stability, and to jointly counter the PRC’s unlawful conduct. Taiwan is a party committed to maintaining peace and stability in the South China Sea. The government of Taiwan will continue to staunchly safeguard maritime security and continue to seek the support of like-minded nations in jointly maintaining security in the Indo-Pacific region.

【從一等米到一億元產值的故事🌾】
來到池上，你除了帶走一張在伯朗大道的單車美照，還帶走了什麼伴手禮？🎁
很多人不知道， #池上鄉農會 一年創造超過「一億元」產值的米食伴手禮，背後藏著一場「去化公糧」的溫柔革命。早期面臨仿冒混米、公糧價如止水的困境，池上鄉農會決定不靠補助，靠「血統」贏回話語權！
✨ 為什麼池上米製品讓你「試吃就想買一箱」？為什麼池上米餅的提袋率高？
答案就在池上農會堅持的「三支箭」戰略：
❶ 血統論：拒絕碎米！只用「一等米」入料，把最好的米做成零嘴。
❷ 跨界玩：從刷爆社群的 #米乖乖 到年輕人宵夜必備的 #湯泡飯，米食也能趕潮流。
❸場域力：在穀倉改造的空間裡，品味九度濃豆漿，體驗慢城的精緻生活。
從一粒米到一片餅，我們看見台灣農業品牌化的驚人能量。下次去台東，別忘了把這份「土地的厚度」帶回家分享！

What do you bring home from Taiwan’s slow-living capital? A NT$100 million snack empire. 🌾
Most visitors flock to Chishang—a lush farming town tucked into southeastern Taiwan’s East Rift Valley—to cycle down the iconic Brown Boulevard. But the town’s real treasure fits right in your tote bag.
Years ago, local farmers faced a shifting market and counterfeit competitors. Instead of giving up, they innovated. By insisting on pure, uncompromised quality, the Chishang Farmers’ Association transformed their local harvest into a massive agricultural brand.
Here’s why these snacks fly off the shelves:
✅Premium Lineage: No broken grains. Only flawless Grade 1 rice makes the cut.
✅Creative Crossovers: From viral “Rice Kuai Kuai” puffs to savory late-night instant soup rice, they’ve made traditional grains trendy.
✅Immersive Spaces: Sip rich local soy milk inside beautifully renovated grain silos that capture the town’s unhurried charm.
From a humble grain to a flawless cracker, Chishang is redefining Taiwan’s agricultural branding.

MOFA Deputy Minister François Wu recently hosted a welcome luncheon for a cross-party delegation from the Republic of Korea National Assembly 대한민국 국회, including People Power Party National Assembly Member Park Soo Young, Democratic Party National Assembly Member Kwak Sang Eon, and Rebuilding Korea Party National Assembly Member Kim Jae Won. During lunch, they discussed Taiwan-ROK ties, joint geopolitical challenges, political and cultural exchanges, and the development of the semiconductor and AI industries.
Wu stated that Taiwan and the Republic of Korea are both democracies opposed to authoritarian expansionism and enjoy a foundation of cooperation in cultural exchange, trade, and semiconductor supply chains; he added that upholding a free and democratic Taiwan is in Korea's interests, and expressed hope for the expansion of cooperation across sectors.
Park, a long-standing observer of Taiwan’s economy and semiconductor development, noted that Taiwan’s per capita GDP had surpassed US$40,000, adding that the ROK can draw inspiration from this.
