His career is one of extensive public service and defense industry experience:U.S. Air Force: Served honorably for 27 years, retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel.Pentagon official: Worked as a senior official within the U.S. Department of Defense, dealing closely with cross-strait security frameworks.American Institute in Taiwan (AIT): Served as the Deputy Chief of the Office of Defense Cooperation, placing him at the intersection of local defense needs and Washington's strategic planning.Raytheon Taiwan: Transitioned his expertise to the private defense industry, working as the In-Country Manager to assist with defensive military hardware and procurement.Objective Analysis on the MediaHis frequent appearances on global broadcasts like TaiwanPlus shows, including , highlight his commitment to practical logistics over political rhetoric. Hu's analysis traditionally bypasses ideological talking points to focus on raw capability, asymmetric deterrence, and modern joint-combat strategies. For instance, his public assessments often dissect the logistical challenges of crossing the 180-kilometer Taiwan Strait or the exact mechanics of a layered defense network—treating security as a math and geography problem rather than a political debate.The 2026 FAPA Speech TourGiven his history as an official U.S. representative bound by strict neutrality, his selection as the headline speaker for the Formosan Association for Public Affairs (FAPA) 2026 Fundraising Speech Tour is certainly a notable milestone. FAPA is historically known for its strong grassroots advocacy toward Taiwan's self-determination, sovereignty, and international recognition.Hu's participation in this nationwide tour—titled "U.S.-Taiwan Military Relations & the Defense of Taiwan"—signals a shared focus on the practical preservation of peace.Tony’s presentation will explore:Taiwan’s current security environmentU.S.-Taiwan military relationsEmerging trends in modern warfareTaiwan’s future and civil defense胡振東巡迴演講胡振東曾在美國空軍服役27年，是美國政府前官員及美國國防工業高層。他曾任雷神科技公司駐台經理、美國國防部長辦公室高級主任，以及美國在台協會（AIT）安全合作辦公室副主任及代理主任。他在美台安全及防務事務方面擁有豐富的經驗。 這次巡迴演講將探討以下內容： • 台灣目前的安全環境 • 美台軍事關係 • 現代戰爭的新趨勢 • 台灣的未來及民防https://youtu.be/dOtkTTmJMtY - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/davie/tony-hu-speech-tour/100001989961431209 - **Event Categories**: charities - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours - Location: Carl DeSantis Building - Room 1047 - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Davie - **state**: FL - **country**: United States - **location**: Carl DeSantis Building - Room 1047 - **lat**: 26.0806493 - **long**: -80.2420641 - **full address**: Carl DeSantis Building - Room 1047, 3050 Ray Ferrero Junior Boulevard, Davie, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Tony Hu Speech Tour - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/012569d019eac3108cb9bb1e844fbe0528c7cab69917ea51b28ff2c09359415f-rimg-w1200-h675-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1779476736 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Tony Hu Speech Tour being held? - **A:** Tony Hu Speech Tour takes place on Sun, 21 Jun, 2026 at 01:00 pm to Sun, 21 Jun, 2026 at 03:00 pm at Carl DeSantis Building - Room 1047, 3050 Ray Ferrero Junior Boulevard, Davie, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Tony Hu Speech Tour? - **A:** Tony Hu Speech Tour is organized by Formosan Association for Public Affairs - South FL. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Tony Hu Speech Tour", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/012569d019eac3108cb9bb1e844fbe0528c7cab69917ea51b28ff2c09359415f-rimg-w1200-h675-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1779476736", "startDate": "2026-06-21", "endDate": "2026-06-21", "url": "https://allevents.in/davie/tony-hu-speech-tour/100001989961431209", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Carl DeSantis Building - Room 1047", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "3050 Ray Ferrero Junior Boulevard", "postalCode": "33314", "addressLocality": "Davie", "addressRegion": "FL", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "26.0806493", "longitude": "-80.2420641" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Taiwan's security and U.S.-Taiwan relations are facing new challenges.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-09-01", "availabilityEnds": "2026-06-21", "validFrom": "2026-09-01", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/davie/tony-hu-speech-tour/100001989961431209" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-09-01", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-09-01", "url": "https://allevents.in/davie/tony-hu-speech-tour/100001989961431209", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Formosan Association for Public Affairs - South FL", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/formosan-association-for-public-affairs-south-fl/27818444", "description": "A Leading Voice for Taiwan in the U.S.At the Formosan Association for Public Affairs (FAPA), our mission is educational.
