KMT presidential candidateshou yuyiAs the trip to the United States ended, Hou Youyi finally showed a relaxed smile after spending the 18th day of the trip’s main meeting at the Brookings Institution. After attending a forum with the Republican Heritage Foundation on the 19th, he went to the Capitol again in the afternoon to conduct a marathon meeting with attendees.RepresentativeHe ran into the meeting almost without eating anything and did not return to the Congress restaurant until 2:30 pm. He quickly grabbed a few slices of pizza and chatted happily with the waiting reporters.
Hou Youyi visited 4 cities in 8 days during her visit to the United States. The program was tough, but whether he was discussing with think tanks or giving speeches at overseas Chinese banquets, he became more and more “himself”. Their discussions took place in straightforward Hou-style language, enhancing relations between the United States and overseas Chinese. Good impression. Especially after foreign media presentations, speeches and discussions at the Brookings Institution on the 18th, AIT Chairman Rosenberg dined three times in two days, meeting with administration officials and having a dinner with former US national security and defense officials Did. In the evening, I am very happy and express my gratitude to the helping staff, scholars, and overseas Chinese.
The US Congress was involved in Hou Youyi’s entire program. He met with 5 senators and 9 representatives in 48 hours. However, the exchange was not just an “impulse”. The congressmen focused on Taiwan Strait issues and discussed business matters first and then efficiently in each meeting. Bo emotions.
On the afternoon of the 19th, Hou Youyi went to Congressman Al Green’s office. After talking about business, Green said that he had met many friends in New Taipei during his previous trip to Taiwan, so he called each other one by one. But at noon Eastern Time, it was midnight in Taiwan, which has a 12-hour time difference. No one answered the call. After two messages, Green said, “There’s one more!” and he made four consecutive calls and left messages.
Hou Youyi later told reporters that she was afraid of waking up her Taiwanese friends, so she ended the meeting early, “otherwise we would have called by five o’clock!” While leaving, Hou’s team gave Green a little Guan Gong, and Green immediately unwrapped it, put it on.ObamaNext to the image, “Let them protect Obama.” Hou found this very interesting.
After a short break, Hou Youyi returned to the capital restaurant and finally had time to eat. His staff gave him a smoked sausage pizza. Hungry Hou Youyi said after eating a piece, “It’s too salty!” Then he asked reporters and staff, “Eat it and see. Is it salty?” Hou’s style, after 48 hours of continuous “examination” in think tanks and congresses, has a relaxed and happy mood written on his face.
