I'll have a couple of posts up tonight, but for now, enjoy...
- If you read one thing today, let it be this discussion of the Sunflower Movement by Albert Wu in the LA Review of Books. Great piece.
- Financial ties with China prove worrisome to Hong Kong banks. The situation is already similar for Taiwan and we haven't even been annexed yet.
- Wreckage in Taiwan Strait solves mystery of missing plane from 50 years ago
- What would push America towards war with China? Dump Taiwan, of course
- China won't go to court with Phils over islands it wants to annex.
- Interesting piece: Taiwan, an emerging asset for Chinese expansion
- Foreign Affairs piece on the services pact. Great stuff explaining why the pact is so opposed. So rare to see a positive piece on Taiwan in Foreign Affairs, so visit, please.
- I'll be ripping this shit later, but for now laugh your head off at this comically bad piece on the Senkakus at JapanFocus. Just another example of the way the Left will embrace any imperialism, so long as it isn't western.
[Taiwan] Don't miss the comments below! And check out my blog and its sidebars for events, links to previous posts and picture posts, and scores of links to other Taiwan blogs and forums!

"America cannot prevent China taking control of the island eventually, one way or another."
Seriously? If so, then they cannot stop China from taking control of the other islands, Senkaku. China taking over Taiwan means it will be that much easier to take Senkaku and all the other South/East China sea islands.

"The Philippine government says it has confirmed that China is engaged in reclamation of 2 more reefs in the disputed Spratly Islands in the South China Sea."

What more potent way to show that Obama understands the “new model of great-power relations” than a serious discussion about the future of Taiwan, with necessary deference to China’s interests?
USA must stop supporting China's interests!!
Doing nothing is supporting China. There are many things USA could do to stop China but they do nothing.

"the United States is disappointed" that Japan hurt Chinese sensitive feelings. Unbelievably stupid and wrong. And just one of many instances of USA "deferring to China’s interests".
