Taiwan is seeking more business ties with China? That seems contrary to what many outsiders would expect.
I thought Taiwan was worried about being taken over and reabsorbed into China. I guess not.

They should ask the folks in Hong Kong how much better their lives are today.

It’s Taiwan’s future. No point in US soldiers dying to save them.

Welcome to 1939, with a Chinese accent.

I went back and read the article at the source, and it appears to me that the author does not realize that “Taiwan” and “China” are not the same.

Yep, Taiwan is saying "Adios M F" to Jao Xiden's Amerika.

They know Xi owns him and all American Democrats and RINOs so their making their best deal direct.

Very Quickly Biden, American Democrats and RINOs will become No Longer Useful Idiots and then they will find out what Bolshevik Marxists do to no longer useful idiots.

Building a $12 BILLION chip plant in Phoenix, Arizona!

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/16/tsmc-taiwanese-chipmaker-ramping-production-to-end-chip-shortage.html

“Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company may not be a household name, but with a market value of over $550 billion, it’s one of the world’s 10 most valuable companies. Now, it’s leveraging its considerable resources to bring the world’s most advanced chip manufacturing back to U.S. soil...”

#5: "I thought Taiwan was worried about being taken over and reabsorbed into China. I guess not."

The Taiwanese people are concerned. But the Taiwanese oligarchs, like oligarchs everywhere (including our own Zuckerbergs and friends) their loyalty is to other oligarchs and and to the Deep State, and not to their own people.

The Taiwanese people do not want creeping communism.

I'd guess Taiwan is easing itself into the inevitable.

Taiwan sees the writing on the wall... Biden’s NOT going to protect them. Biden talks loud — carries a little stick.

Taiwan has to ‘play nice’ ‘cause they’re standing alone.
