Taiwan is investing 1 billion NTD in a new science and technology park in Eswatini, its last remaining African ally. The Taiwan Industrial Innovation Park aims to bolster the bilateral relationship and provide a foothold for Taiwanese businesses seeking to expand into Africa. President Lai Ching-te and Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung visited the proposed site earlier this year, signaling the project's importance. The investment is unlikely to be linked to human rights concerns within Eswatini. This initiative represents a strategic move by Taiwan to maintain diplomatic connections and foster economic opportunities. It also demonstrates Taiwan’s commitment to supporting economic development in its allied nations. This park is expected to promote technological collaboration and innovation between the two countries.
