>>Taiwan blasts Senkaku survey: it should be obvious now that the purpose of this policy is to irritate Japan.
Ma Ying-Jeou is reportedly set to imitate South Korean President Lee Myung-Bak and get himself landed on the Pengjia Islet (aka "Agincourt") to "observe at a closer distance" the situation around Senkaku.
Obviously, a devise to pit Japan against the Taiwanese and drive Taiwan closer to China internationally.
A very clever devise of him, the Chinese nationalism fundamentalist, to hit both the Taiwanese and Japan with one stone.
