Who Is “The Koo Foundation” in Taiwan?----------Back to the top The
Koo foundation
was founded in 1987 by dr. Chen-fu
koo, honorary chairman
of the ho-Hsin group,
one of the core business groups in Taiwan. Dr.
C.F. Koo, a highly respected celebrity among the business circles in taiwan
and founder of Taiwan‘s
economic councils in the usa, japan,
korea, and most european
countries, is currently also chairman
of the Strait exchange
foundation, a most important institute
in enhancing peace and goodwill between Taiwan(ROC) and China(PRC). Dr.
Koo and china‘s tao-Han
wang opened the so-called “koo-wang
Talks” in singapore
and Beijing. The
Koo foundation
was founded to fulfill three missions: (1)
to hold lectures and intensive courses for young businessmen in taiwan,
inviting such celebrity speakers as the Nobel Prize winners in world economics; (2)
to conduct researches for anti-cancer drugs and build the only tertiary
hospital for cancer patients; (3)
to promote Chinese performing arts, especially Chinese opera. The special project of promoting chinese opera has been headed by Ms. vivien ku, vice chief executive of the Foundation. Together with bao-chun Li, a most celebrated Chinese Opera actor/director, Vivien Ku gives two productions yearly which have toured extensively in Europe, america, and japan in the past 8 years.
