Organizers of an ongoing exhibition of about 30 vintage vehicles from Taiwan and Japan that kicked off on Saturday in Taipei hope the event will strengthen bilateral ties through the love of classic cars.
"Although Taiwan and Japan don't speak the same language, our hearts have always been connected together," Wayne Liu, deputy director general of Taiwan's Tourism Bureau, told a news conference before the exhibition was opened to the public. The Tourism Bureau and Rally Nippon, a classic car club in Japan, organized the event, which runs until Sunday.
Yusuke Kobayashi, head of the Rally Nippon club, said the annual event is not only about vintage cars, but also people.
