Hello everyone. My name is Jenny Wang. I am currently a senior at Rutgers
University with a major in Communication and minor in Asian studies.
During the summer of 2010, I attended a program called the "Formosa
Foundation Ambassador Program". Formosa Foundation is a non-profit
organization focusing on human rights, democracy and the strengthening of
US-Taiwan relations. I highly recommend applying to this program,
especially if you have a strong interest in foreign policy regarding US
and Taiwan.

The Formosa Foundation is accepting applications for the 2012 Ambassador
Program from now through March 15, 2012. The 2012 Program will take place
in Washington, D.C. from June 18 through 29. Up to 30 college/graduate
students and young professionals will be selected from the United States
and Taiwan to participate in this highly competitive "Congressional boot
camp."

Application forms are now available. The U.S. applicants please complete
the 2012 U.S. Application Form; Applicants who are currently in Taiwan
and/or are Taiwanese national please use the 2012 TW Form.

The Ambassador Program, in its 10th year, has over 250 future leaders
graduate and held over a thousand meetings with individual members of
Congress and their staff. With each passing year the program has grown
stronger, attracting not only some of the foremost authorities on Taiwan
and Asia-Pacific issues from across America, but also garnering the
attention of powerful lawmakers as well. The Ambassador Program teaches
skills to help change the hearts and minds of our elected leaders and
policymakers in Washington on the most critical issues concerning Taiwan.
Formosa Foundation ambassadors have received praises as being Capitol
Hill's most articulate and effective advocates for the U.S.-Taiwan
bilateral relations.
