                          Tuesday, May 1, 2018

  Mr. TED LIEU of California.  Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize the 
service of Dr. Jason Chao to the Taipei Economic and Cultural 
Representative Office (TECRO), and I congratulate him on his 
retirement.
  Dr. Chao, Primary Advisor to the Ambassador of the Republic of China 
on Taiwan (ROC), has been serving TECRO for the past 25 years. 
Throughout his esteemed career, he has been the chief congressional 
liaison officer and the principal escort officer for congressional 
delegation trips. Many Members of Congress and congressional staff have 
learned more about Taiwan because of Jason's work.
  Dr. Chao has consistently shown wisdom, professionalism, passion, and 
dedication during his many years of service. He has also been 
instrumental in helping steer the promotion of bilateral relations and 
the exchange of cultural and economic growth between the ROC and the 
United States.
  We will miss Dr. Chao, but we are excited for his future endeavors 
and we offer him our sincere thanks for his many contributions to the 
U.S.-Taiwan relationship.
