Hey there! Did you hear the exciting news? On Tuesday, Shanghai and Taipei kicked off a big event called the Shanghai-Taipei City Forum in Taipei!
What’s so special about it? Well, they signed agreements to work together on smart health care and to help our furry friends, the red pandas! 🐼❤️
Hua Yuan, the deputy mayor of Shanghai, said this year’s theme is “Smart Governance, Sustainable Future.” That’s a fancy way of saying they want to make cities better places to live using cool technology!
They talked about teaming up in areas like transportation (think super-cool buses and trains!), water management (clean rivers and lakes!), health care, and taking care of the environment.
Hua Yuan also invited people from Taipei to visit Shanghai and announced that Shanghai will encourage group trips to Taiwan. How fun does that sound? ✈️🌆
Chiang Wan-an, the mayor of Taipei, said it’s super important for the two cities to keep talking and working together, especially when times are tough. He believes that understanding each other is way better than misunderstanding.
At the forum, people from both cities shared awesome ideas about friendly transportation, taking care of rivers, and making cities full of culture and fun things to do!
Isn’t it awesome to see cities working together to make the world a better place? Maybe one day, you’ll visit Shanghai or Taipei and see these amazing changes yourself!
