Taipei, May 28 (CNA) Taiwan has won a bid to host the 2014 world congress of the World Association of Women Entrepreneurs, a Foreign Ministry official said Tuesday. It will be the first time the annual world congress has been held in Taiwan, said Wu Rong-chuan, head of the ministry's Department of Non-Government Organization International Affairs. Hosting the event will help spur Taiwan's drive to participate in international organizations and improve its global profile, Wu said.
