U.S. Rep. Young Kim (R-CA) recently led a bipartisan congressional delegation to South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan as part of an effort to reaffirm key U.S. alliances and strengthen partnerships across the Indo-Pacific. “From Seoul to Tokyo to Taipei, I saw firsthand that America’s alliances are our greatest strategic advantage and the foundation of a free and open Indo-Pacific,” Rep. Kim said. The lawmakers visited Coupang to learn more about the company’s operations and discuss concerns about discriminatory regulatory treatment of U.S. businesses in South Korea. In Taiwan, Rep. Kim and her colleagues met with President Lai Ching-te, Vice President Hsiao Bi-khim, and defense and national security officials, and toured a drone production facility. “I will always fight to ensure America and our allies have the tools and resolve to keep this critical region free, open, and secure,” said Rep. Kim.
