AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Taiwan in the spotlight: After Donald Trump’s Beijing summit with Xi, he said he’ll speak with Taiwan President Lai Ching-te in the first U.S.-Taiwan presidential dialogue since 1979, while also warning Taiwan not to pursue formal independence and saying the U.S. won’t “travel 9,500 miles” for it. Taiwan’s response stays firm: Lai vows sovereignty is “non-negotiable,” and the island insists it will not be “sacrificed or traded away.” Culture & travel buzz: Taiwan Travelogue—Yang Shuang-zi’s Mandarin novel about a 1930s culinary journey under Japanese rule—won the International Booker Prize in London, putting Taiwan’s stories and food on a global map. Regional travel signals: Japan saw foreign arrivals dip in April, with Chinese mainland visitors down 56.8%, while Taiwan inbound rose 19.7% to 643,500. Business for travelers: Airlines in the region are nudging up checked-baggage fees ahead of summer, including Vietjet and Bamboo Airways.
