The message “Taiwan Can Help” will appear in the skies above Canberra at 11 a.m. on Saturday, May 16, and again at 11 a.m. above Sydney’s CBD on Sunday, May 17, as Australia’s Taiwanese community call for support for Taiwan’s World Health Organisation (WHO) membership.

The “Taiwan Can Help” skywriting message is the result of a successful three-day crowdfunding campaign by a group of Taiwanese-Australian doctors and professionals.
