Requesting permit to fly Drones in Taipei/New Taipei

I have a friend coming in from US who is a drone enthusiast. Anyone know how to go about requesting for the right to fly a drone in Taipei or New Taipei.

I found this recent article:

Does anyone know if there are ways for foreigners to fly drones legally?

Though that is still a draft, it says a foreigner who has a license from a foreign government can get a permission by submitting the proof to CAA.

第九十九條之十二 外國人領有外國政府之遙控無人機註冊、操作及檢驗合格等證明文件者,得向民航局申請認可後,依本章之規定從事飛航活動。

Not a direct answer, but you might find something.
