An Old Ally in a Difficult Position

Taiwan appears to be in a conundrum; attempting to train their conscripts during their 4 month stint of military duty, and maintaining a strong military.

Yesterday's Taipei Times newspaper had a interesting article on Taiwan's military training and those who serve.

Chinese Tourists in Taiwan

An article in today's Taipei Times newspaper hit home for me.

Chinese citizens (tourists) have been visiting Taiwan for about 10 years.  

I have experienced their deportment on many occasions, especially tour groups.

Individual visitors are not as easily recognized as Chinese tour groups.

This article, written by a staff writer for one of Shanghai's newspapers hits the nail on the head!

Here is the Taipei Times article

Worth your read!!!
