The 103rd report from the Budget Center of the Legislative Yuan highlighted a lack of elimination rate for the training plan of new diplomatic consular and administrative personnel by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in November 2014. Over the past decade, the Ministry has not taken steps to eliminate unsuitable personnel. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Affairs' secretary, Sharon Wu, stated that year's training process was more stringent than 2013. She clarified that in 2014, there are two diplomatic employees who are not fit for elimination and that the Ministry has been working to enhance the training and removal process for new diplomats in order to raise the caliber of new hires.

Wu, director of international organisations at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stated in March 2021 that Taiwan's successful model for preventing epidemics has gained international recognition and has made it clear to the world community that Taiwan must be included in the World Health Organization (WHO) immediately. The World Health Assembly (WHA) was scheduled to take place in May.
