OKLAHOMA CITY – The Senate passed Senate Bill 209 Thursday, a measure by Sen. Roland Pederson, R-Burlington. SB 209 creates the Taiwan Regional Trade Office under the Oklahoma Department of Commerce. The established office would facilitate economic relationships between Oklahoma-based businesses and businesses in Taiwan, as well as promote trade between Taiwan and Oklahoma businesses.
“This measure will further strengthen our longstanding sister-state relationship with Taiwan,” Pederson said. “By establishing the Taiwan Regional Trade Office, we aim to build on this partnership and unlock new economic opportunities for Oklahoma. It will help us expand trade, foster business collaborations, and create a stronger economic link between our state and Taiwan, benefiting both Oklahoma businesses and our international partners.”
The measure now moves to the House of Representatives for consideration, where Rep. Daniel Pae, R-Lawton, is the bill’s principal author.
