Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes is visiting Taiwan this week on an international trade mission to Asia with a delegation from the United States. Grimes is one of four secretaries of state selected to participate in a trip the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office is coordinating and funding. She will meet with several of the Kentucky companies with offices in Taiwan, including Ashland, Inc., Sunspring America, Inc., and Taihu Brewing. Taiwan is Kentucky’s 6^th largest export market in Asia, and the two have been sister states since 1982.
