Speaking at a news conference in Taipei, Ko said that he has faith in Taiwan’s ability to fight the pandemic, despite a spike in locally transmitted COVID-19 cases in an infection cluster at Taoyuan General Hospital.
“TIMTOS 2021, which will open as scheduled on March 15 and run through March 20 at Taipei World Trade Center Exhibition Hall 1 and Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center Hall 2, is likely to be the first major trade show in the world,” Ko said.
