President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) yesterday presided over a ceremony in Keelung to inaugurate a 4,000-tonne-class coast guard ship, named the
Chiayi (嘉義), while highlighting the coast guard’s cooperation with the US.
Tsai toured the
Chiayi at CSBC Corp, Taiwan’s (台船) shipyard and attended the christening of its sister vessel, the
Hsinchu (新竹), both commissioned by the Coast Guard Administration (CGA).
Tsai said that the delivery of the
Chiayi and the production of sister ships bolsters the coast guard’s capabilities and offers greater protection for CGA staff.
