With Taiwan having only 12 diplomatic allies left, maintaining these relationships is crucial. However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs should not allow Taiwanese nationals to be subject to unreasonable 'body searches' before being allowed to proceed while abroad. By speaking up and demanding explanations from the relevant countries in such situations, the dignity and rights of Taiwanese nationals can be upheld, meeting expectations and earning respect from diplomatic allies. The recent incident involving a Taiwanese woman being asked to strip and undergo a search by Palau customs, which yielded no illicit items, highlights the importance of diplomatic accountability and respect for individuals' rights and dignity.
