Another mission ahead: China: When Chiu returned to Taiwan for the first time in 24 years at the urging of the government and the business community, in1972, he brought along a large contingent of Japanese businessmen to have a look at investing. It was a big morale booster at the time, since we had just withdrawn from the United Nations.
民國六十一年，闊別台灣廿四年的邱永漢，在政府及企業界力邀下重回家鄉，還帶了大批日本企業界的追隨者來台考察、投資，這對當時剛退出聯合國的台灣來說，是一件振奮人心的大事。
