The agenda of the U.S. official includes a meeting with Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen, and Foreign Minister Joseph Wu and taking part in a U.S. Business Day.

During his three-day visit, the Arizona Governor plans to hold meetings with companies in the semiconductor industry and universities that offer education in that area.

According to observers, the head of Arizona's visit to the Island will raise tensions between China and the U.S., already exacerbated by the visit conducted by various U.S. officials.
