President to observe part of Han Kuang military exercises aboard naval shipStaff writer, with CNAPresident Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) is tomorrow to board a naval vessel to observe a joint exercise that is part of the annual five-day live-fire phase of the Han Kuang military exercises, the Ministry of National Defense said yesterday. It would be the first time that Tsai inspects a Han Kuang drill from a warship since taking office in May 2016. Taiwanese military personnel in M60A3 tanks take part in a drill in New Taipei City on Sept. 16 last year as part of the annual Han Kuang military exercises. Tomorrow’s drill would be part of the live-fire component of this year’s annual Han Kuang military exercises, Taiwan’s largest war games involving all military branches. As done previously, this year’s Han Kuang exercises are being held in two phases: war games and live-fire drills.
