The Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India held a handover ceremony for its president and supervisor general today in Bangalore. The former and new presidents of the chamber successfully completed the handover in the presence of distinguished guests, including Representative Chen Mu-min from the Taipei Economic and Cultural Center in India, Director Hsu Shu-chih from the Taipei Economic and Cultural Center in Chennai, and over a hundred members of the Taiwanese business community.
After elections, the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India selected its new directors and supervisors, further confirming that Chen Mu-teng, who has been deeply rooted in India for many years and served as the president of the Bangalore Taiwanese Chamber of Commerce, would take over from Ho Chun-hsin, the president of the Delhi Taiwanese Chamber of Commerce, to become the second-term president of the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India.
During today's handover ceremony, Hsu Chia-ching, Minister of the Overseas Community Affairs Council, also expressed her affirmation and blessings. Hsu Chia-ching stated that although the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India was established not long ago, under the efforts of the founding team, it has rapidly developed into an important partner for the government in India. Under Ho Chun-hsin's leadership, it actively integrated Taiwanese chambers of commerce across India internally and established a complete organizational structure, charter, director and supervisor system, and election mechanism for the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India, laying a good foundation for its long-term future development.
In addition, Hsu Chia-ching also mentioned that the team led by Ho Chun-hsin also promoted cooperation between Taiwanese businesses and Indian industrial and commercial groups and industries through various economic and trade exchange activities externally, and led the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India to connect with Taiwanese business organizations in Asia and the world, making outstanding contributions to enhancing the representation and visibility of Taiwanese businesses in India.
According to Hsu Chia-ching, Chen Mu-teng has been deeply rooted in India for many years, has rich experience in the industry, and enthusiastically organized many activities. "I believe that under his leadership, whether it is connecting with the international community or promoting cooperation and exchanges among Taiwanese businesses, there will definitely be brilliant achievements."
Hsu Chia-ching mentioned that observing the current global economic and trade trends, Taiwan and India are also becoming increasingly close in cooperation projects in industrial supply chains, digital economy, and high-tech industries. The bilateral trade volume in 2025 reached a historical high of 12.5 billion US dollars. This is the result of every Taiwanese businessperson's courage to explore, and the Overseas Community Affairs Council will continue to be the strongest backing for overseas Taiwanese businesses.
Representative Chen Mu-min stated in his speech at the ceremony that the greatest achievement of the first-term Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India was to integrate Taiwanese businesses from different regions of India. Ho Chun-hsin painstakingly organized the various Taiwanese chambers of commerce. "In addition to more information exchange, many activities have also promoted the feelings among Taiwanese businesses, making everyone more united."
Chen Mu-min mentioned that India has become increasingly interested in Taiwan in the past two years, mainly seeing Taiwan's economic and technological strength. This is the result of Taiwanese businesses working hard in India. He hopes that under Chen Mu-teng's leadership, more Taiwanese businesses will invest in India, and existing Taiwanese businesses will continue to expand in different fields. In the future, the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India will definitely make more contributions to India's economic growth and to bilateral exchanges between Taiwan and India.
Chen Mu-teng stated that the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India will continue to focus on four core development areas: "serving Taiwanese businesses," "promoting international exchanges," "implementing social responsibility," and "strengthening cross-national connections." Within the framework of these core concepts, the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India will not only deepen its connections with Taiwanese businesses in India but also strengthen exchanges between Taiwanese businesses in India and Japanese, Korean, and Indian businesses in India, creating greater business opportunities for members and partners of the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India, and further driving the development of Taiwanese businesses in India.
Chen Mu-teng encouraged Taiwanese businesses considering investing in India in the future to target the Indian domestic market as their primary investment objective. The Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India will provide necessary assistance, especially by sharing the current operating experiences of various Taiwanese businesses in India with new Taiwanese businesses as a reference for investing and developing in India. It will also endeavor to help new Taiwanese businesses reduce investment risks and shorten the learning curve after arriving in India.
Ho Chun-hsin, the former president of the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India and current president of the Delhi Taiwanese Chamber of Commerce, stated that the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India currently spans all regions of northern, central, and southern India, including Delhi, Maharashtra West (Greater Mumbai), Chennai, Bangalore, and Hyderabad. It has basically formed a dense network that can serve Taiwanese businesses operating in India. It has also established a relatively mature network for close care of Taiwanese businesses, helping Taiwanese businesses connect with the market, and exchanging with both governments.
Ho Chun-hsin mentioned that in the past, exchanges between India and Taiwan were relatively scarce compared to other countries, so Taiwanese people lacked understanding of India. Therefore, he hopes that the Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce in India can play a bridging role, allowing everyone to better understand India, its culture, and its business environment.
