Taiwan is Open to Joining Potential Global LNG Strategic Reserve

Taiwan is open to joining a global liquefied natural gas program if one is created, according to an official from its energy department, but with conditions that countries provide delivery even in a scenario where there is a conflict with China.

While the priority for Taiwan is to have enough LNG at home, the island is open to exploring potential strategic reserves in other countries like Japan or Korea, Energy Administration Deputy Director General Chen Chung-hsien said in an interview on Thursday.
