Something’s wrong with Taiwanese!
Can you imagine this happening anywhere else?!

Taiwan Life:
This rather bizarre situation where a lady collapses on a crosswalk and another pedestrian unceremoniously drags her off the road by her arm.
Note that nobody waiting at the light attempted to help her. If the man hadn’t dragged her off she might have been run over by a turning vehicle.
There is a seemingly cold/uncaring side of Taiwanese when it comes to unfortunate people needing help in public.
Some say it’s due to poor Good Samaritan laws, but regardless, it’s best not to need the assistance of strangers in public.

Awkward Taiwan:
In probably one of the more surreal commencement speeches of all time, graduates at Taiwan’s Shih Hsin University #世新大學 were told to “End yourselves quickly” if they couldn’t keep their lives in order after they entered the work place.
This rather drastic admonition was made by Shih Shin University president Chen Ching-ho 世新大學校長陳清河 during his commencement address to the school’s Master’s and PhD degree graduates.
He then went on to tell them that if they could not manage their lives they should exit from the world because the world wouldn’t need people like them.
The ensuing uproar has led to calls for Dr Chen to resign. Yesterday he apologized for “had not been sufficiently careful in my remarks” and announced he would take a two month unpaid leave.

Taiwan vs China:
Yup. Pretty much sums up China’s and the KMT’s #國民黨 position

China’s Move South: A fantastic but not improbable scenario
So here’s how it might play out:
The #US: #Minnesota, #California, #Washington and #Hawaii declare themselves sanctuary states & the US #Federal military loses access to all its Pacific bases. The US disengages from Asia to try to resolve this existential crisis.
South #Korea: China takes advantage & co-opts Korea’s deeply pro-China majority led by president Lee who happily expels the US military & declares neutrality
#Taiwan: The #KMT convinces the 45% of #Taiwanese that are skeptical of US assistance to accept the One Nation, Two Systems. Taiwan’s spy-riddled, mainland descendants-controlled army switches sides. Taiwan becomes the TSAR and grants PRC access to bases in Suao and Kaohsiung
#Japan: China invades Okinawa. US forces stay on their bases & are allowed to withdraw back to the US
The #Philippines: With its northern flank secure China surges its navy & merchant marine fleets south. They give the Philippines an ultimatum - be a vassal state or get attacked. Philippines capitulates & turns over Palawan island & gives China bases facing the Pacific & on Mindanao
#ASEAN: #Cambodia, #Laos, #Myanmar, #Malaysia & #Thailand enthusiastically join China’s Asia Prosperity & Security Alliance, giving China full access to their infrastructure
#Singapore rediscovers it’s actually “Descendants of the Dragon” 龍的傳奇 and becomes China’s southern anchor
#Vietnam: China leaves Vietnam alone, having had their balls shot off by Vietnamese women in pajamas. They secure a non-aggression pact
#Indonesia: Tries to fight but is too riddled by corruption & Belt & Road back door traps to put up resistance & China takes over Borneo & Sulawesi from staging bases in Malaysia & Philippines.
#India: India wakes up from its disastrous #BRICS dalliance to discover China poised to capture the Strait of Malacca and expand into the Indian Ocean. It preemptively occupies the Indian Ocean-facing Indonesian islands and coastal Myanmar.
#Australia, under its massive pro-China, anti-American lobby is too worried about being seen as racist to overtly criticize China’s territorial expansion but reluctantly moves into the Indonesian islands directly to its north to keep Chinese forces from being able to blockade northern Australia
The stage is set for a massive clash between #China and #India for control of the Indian Ocean with major naval battles in the Indonesian archipelago and land battles in coastal Myanmar & Northeast India
The US is irrelevant
