Bill Summary
RESOLUTION endorsing TAIWAN'S international participation, encouraging the signing of a united states-TAIWAN agreement on avoidance of double taxation, and commemorating the sister-state relationship BETWEEN the state of hawaii and taiwan.
AI Summary
This concurrent resolution, passed by the Hawaii State Legislature, expresses support for Taiwan's increased involvement in international organizations, specifically advocating for its observer status in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), and the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL). It also encourages the United States to negotiate a "double taxation avoidance agreement" with Taiwan, which would prevent individuals and businesses from being taxed twice on the same income by both countries, thereby strengthening bilateral trade and investment. Furthermore, the resolution commemorates the long-standing sister-state relationship between Hawaii and Taiwan, which began in 1993 and has fostered cooperation in various fields, including a recent significant donation from Taiwan to Hawaii following the 2023 Maui wildfires.
