Strengthening the sister-state relations between the State of Kansas and Taiwan.
This Senate Resolution expresses Kansas's support for strengthening its sister-state relationship with Taiwan and celebrating 37 years of this partnership. The bill highlights existing academic programs and trade ties, such as a Mandarin language initiative and recent investment delegations, while affirming shared democratic values. It also calls for the signing of a double taxation agreement to boost investment and advocates for Taiwan's inclusion in international organizations focused on health, safety, and climate change. The resolution is a symbolic gesture that does not alter laws or create new legal obligations for the state.
