Amazing vintage pictures... and congrats on the shout-out from TIME.
ReplyDeleteAs an external observer, based outside Taiwan, I have been finding the local press to be very 'guarded' on certain topics (particularly anything to do with the question of reunification/independence).
So I reckon your blog is providing an essential service...!
BTW, I have subscribed to the new RSS feed option, using an app called Shrook, and it works pretty well.
