The nation's space development program is to receive an additional NT$40 billion (US$1.23 billion) in funding, President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) said yesterday in a speech at the opening of the Taiwan International Assembly of Space Science, Technology and Industry in Taipei.
The launch of Taiwan's first domestically produced weather satellite, Triton, earlier this month proves that the nation not only has advantages in semiconductors and precision manufacturing, but also the ability to enter the global space industry, Tsai said.
