TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Taiwan will send a development aid team to Somaliland this month to work on agricultural, telecom, and health projects.

Taiwan’s launch of an office in Hargeisa in August was seen as a major development between the two administrations.

By the end of November, the International Cooperation and Development Fund (ICDF) will send an aid team to Hargeisa to open an office as a base for work to start in early 2021, according to CNA.

A four-member delegation has already been scouting the area and preparing work on projects involving increased production of vegetables and fruit, improvements in the government’s use of information technology, and health care for infants and pregnant women.
