Dear Karmen,
Please accept this letter as a token of my sincere gratitude as 1 prepare to conclude my tenure as
the Representative of the Taipei Mission in the Republic of Latvia. It has been a profound honor to
represent my country and to serve in Latvia and Estonia during this pivotal time in our shared

1 arn especially grateful for the steadfast support and cooperation extended to me by your esteemed
governrnent officials, as well as friends frorn the Riigikogu and various sectors, throughout my
time here. The Estonian government’s dedication and parliamentary mernbers’ facilitation to
strengthening our spccific area ofcooperation ties have been instrurnental in advancing our shared
goals and has been deeply appreciated. 1 also want to acknowledge the incredible warrnth and
hospitality extcnded to me and my colleagues by the people ofEstonia; it is something 1 will carry
with me always.
During my service, 1 have been deeply moved by the enduring spirit of Estonia and its people—a
spirit defined by resilience, pride, and a rich cu]tural heritage. The nationwide Song and Dance
Festival, with its tens of thousands of voices and dancers united in cclebration, the lieartfelt
comrnemoration ofTaasiseseisvumispäcv, and the tirneless beauty ofEstonia’s folk ali and crafts
ali stand as powerful testarnents to the nation’s strength and soul. These expcriences have touchcd

extraordinary people.

a wealth of experience and dedication to this irnportant role. 1 kindly ask you to extend the sarne
warm hospitality and generous support to hirn as you have graciously shown me. With hirn serving

between our two nations. 1 am also confident tliat with your continued guidance and cooperation,
the bonds we have forged will endure, and our collaboration wiIl continue to bring mutual benefit
