More Filipinos are being urged to apply for Taiwan’s foreign English teacher program next year.

Peiyung Hsu, a representative for the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office (TECO), reported that 77 Filipino-English teachers and 11 teaching assistants had been chosen from 6,000 candidates for the 2022 academic year alone.

In an address on Friday, he remarked, “We encourage more instructors to join the program next year.”

The Taiwan Ministry of Education established the Taiwan Foreign English Teacher Program (TFETP) to hire foreign English teachers and expand the opportunity for Taiwanese children to study English in schools.

In addition, according to Hsu, Taiwan looks forward to enhancing relations with Manila in the areas of commerce and investment, agriculture, health and medicine, tourism, and climate change resilience.

Hsu hopes that more Filipinos will go to Taiwan once the country reopens its borders to all foreigners on October 13, 2022, and continues the visa-free entrance program for Filipinos through July 31, 2023.

In 2019, Taiwan was the Philippines’ fifth-largest source market for tourists.

According to bilateral trade, Taiwan was the Philippines’ ninth-largest commercial partner and ninth-largest foreign direct investor in 2021.

“Since the 1960s, Taiwanese companies have made investments in the Philippines. Currently, more than 600 Taiwanese businesses are operating in the Philippines, and that number is steadily increasing, “added Hsu.

He said, “I have full faith in the friendly relations between Taiwan and the Philippines.
