Taiwan

Taiwanese Gourmet in Queens led the way long before today's cadre of trendy spots serving takes classics like beef noodle soup and fly's head.

One of my musical friends pointed out that the name in Taiwanese on the menu means “chicken leg,” suggesting that the recipe has been made to mimic a poultry appendage. A plate of raw garlic clove comes alongside, and one is invited to eat a shard of garlic with each slice of sausage. Many Taiwanese dishes besides fly’s heads (so named because of the black beans that speckle the dish) have humorous names. Any dish labeled Taiwanese on the menu is recommended, including the Taiwanese meatball. Forty-year-old Taiwanese Gourmet is perhaps the foremost of these restaurants, and I recently decided to pay a return visit. These establishments introduced a wider audience to dishes like popcorn chicken, beef noodle soup, and fly’s heads — the facetiously named stir fry of ground pork, flowering garlic chives, chiles, and fermented black beans.

La invasión de Rusia a Ucrania ocurrió en un momento... Aunque recientemente, el presidente Joe Biden prometió que Estados Unidos apoyaría a Taiwán en caso de ser atacado, la realidad muestra que no ofrece garantías de seguridad explícitas y en caso de participar en un eventual conflicto bélico terminaría comprando una guerra mayor que por el momento no desea.

Taiwan's football fans, however, have previously complained that a dropdown menu of nationalities on the Hayya card application system had no listing for Taiwan, but only "Taiwan, Province of China," although it did include the flag of the Republic of China (R.O.C.), Taiwan's official name. The 2022 FIFA World Cup will be the first World Cup ever to be held in the Arab world, and the second in Asia after the 2002 tournament in South Korea and Japan. "We express our appreciation to the event organizers for their swift response in making the correction and in safeguarding the rights of our nation's fans," Ou added.

“We again urge the World Cup organisers not to allow improper political factors to interfere in a pure sports event … to let sports be sports and return a clean World Cup to global fans,” she said. Taiwan’s foreign ministry said it has demanded that organisers in Qatar correct its “unfriendly” and “improper” measures against Taiwanese fans, said spokeswoman Joanne Ou in a statement.

Qatar and Taiwan have no diplomatic relations, as Doha, like most of the world, only recognises China's sovereignty.

It has not qualified for the Qatar World Cup, but football is popular in Taiwan. China, seeking to assert its sovereignty claims, has been stepping up pressure for countries and foreign companies to refer to Taiwan as part of China in official documents and on websites, often using the wording "Taiwan, Province of China", or "Taiwan, China". Taiwan's Foreign Ministry expressed thanks on Thursday after organisers of the World Cup in Qatar removed a reference to China for Taiwanese visitors applying for an identification card that doubles as an entry visa.

Those fears have become more pronounced over the past two years or so as Beijing steps up military activities near Taiwan. Facility chief Wang Wen-hung told reporters the plant in Jiji can produce six vehicles a month, and it has already delivered 173 of them to the military out of a total order for 305. While Taiwan relies on the United States for many of its weapons, like fighter jets, President Tsai Ing-wen has been pushing for a greater emphasis on Taiwanese-designed and made armaments, the most high profile of which is new submarines.

It is equipped with the Mk44 Bushmaster 30mm chain gun, acquired from Orbital ATK, which has an effective firing range of 3 kilometers, a cruising range of up to 600km, and a maximum speed of 100km per hour, the bureau said. The Clouded Leopard is a benchmark for the production of armored vehicles in Taiwan, considering that not many countries have the ability to go from research and development to independent manufacturing, Su said. The CM-34 is the latest variant of the eight-wheeled Clouded Leopard that entered service in Taiwan in 2019.

Taiwanese government thanks Qatari organisers for change, after fan application system listed island as Chinese.

It also included a Taiwanese flag, which could trigger Chinese opposition. China often pressures countries and companies to refer to Taiwan as "Taiwan, Province of China" or "Taiwan, China" to support its sovereignty claims. World Cup organisers in Qatar have removed a reference to Taiwan as a province of China, following backlash from the Taiwanese government.

“As a first-gen, American-born Taiwanese, there’s this impulse to shout out about Taiwan all the time,” Smith says. “If people can become familiar with the products and culture of a place, they’re more likely to identify it when the time is needed.” “If you only have one ramen shop in New York, you don’t really notice it, but if you have ten ramen chains, ramen becomes a thing — we’re riding that wave all together.” To acquaint more Americans with the island’s culture and food, Yun Hai’s brick-and-mortar location — which opens on Saturday at 170 Montrose Avenue — will function as an experimental lab where shoppers can interact with pantry goods and housewares, many made by young Taiwanese people taking over generations-old family businesses. “People are so familiar with Japan or Singapore, but I feel like even people I’m close to aren’t fully aware of Taiwan’s self-sovereignty,” Smith says. She’d been looking for a chance to work with Lillian Lin, an acquaintance with experience in the restaurant industry.

NEW ASSERTIONS: The strait’s status as an international waterway has never been an issue in discussions until recently, raising fears of a naval confrontation, a source said During meetings with US counterparts in the past few months, Chinese military officials repeatedly said that the Taiwan Strait is not within international waters, generating concern in Washington, a person familiar with the matter said. WORTH THE BAN: Many people warned Chen of the loss of potential earnings from the Chinese market, but the Taiwan-based singer said she has benefited in other ways Taiwan-based Australian singer Kimberley Chen (陳芳語) performed part of a song banned in China at the Copenhagen Democracy Summit this week, and said her freedom as an artist was more important than having access to the Chinese market. The US and key allies routinely send naval vessels through the waterway as part of freedom of navigation exercises, with the view that much of the strait is in international waters. Chen performed part of the song Fragile (玻璃心), which pokes fun at nationalistic Chinese social media users, on a small platform in a space outside the venue’s main auditorium at the end of the summit’s first day on Thursday. She also debuted a new English song, Who Says, a tune Chen said is meant to encourage people who feel persecuted. You was presenting an online keynote speech on the Web forum www.taiwanus.net. He said that when he was the premier he already knew that the Cloud Peak, a medium-range supersonic land-attack cruise missile developed in Taiwan, could reach Beijing. At the time he could not talk publicly about it, but now he could, as the missile is in mass production. NOT DEFENSELESS: Taiwan’s medium-range supersonic land-attack cruise missile offers an added deterrent to a potential cross-strait invasion, the legislative speaker said China should think twice about invading Taiwan, as its Yun Feng (雲峰, Cloud Peak) missile could reach Beijing, Legislative Speaker You Si-kun (游錫堃) said yesterday.

Lacking nuclear weapons and outgunned in conventional terms, both the Ukrainian and Taiwanese militaries have little choice but to wage asymmetric warfare. Yet ...

They anticipate that this could occur regardless of whatever amount of punishment Taiwan is able to inflict on targets in China. Counterstrikes against critical military nodes (such as Chinese ports) are implied, as it would be both a strategic and operational mistake to sit back while the PLA mobilizes and loads its invasion fleet. Nonetheless, once the war starts, Taiwan could run out of long-range missiles within days, leaving Beijing free to choose the best time, place, and manner to launch its amphibious landing campaign. Whatever its merits or shortcomings, the ODC served as a common language between the United States and Taiwan. It was a clearly defined procurement prioritization and reform plan, putting forward that Taiwan needed a more balanced force buildup in terms of conventional and asymmetric capabilities. The Taiwanese military has already experienced a history of betrayal, including the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Taiwan after the derecognition of the Republic of China (ROC) in 1979. As Taiwan has historically invested less in such asymmetric capabilities compared to conventional platforms, the ODC called for a greater emphasis on the former. Both types of systems are important for Taiwan in the absence of assured security arrangements with the United States. In recent weeks, the conflict in Ukraine has underscored the grim reality that coercion may get far worse, and the invasion scenario is the one that poses an existential threat. If unresolved, the confusion over Taiwan’s strategy could drive a wedge between the United States and Taiwan. While there exists a perception that bilateral relations are possibly the best they’ve been in decades, the reality is that they appear to be worsening. Taiwan faces two categories of threats from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP): coercion and invasion. By being mistrustful of Taiwan and overly directive on matters of procurement, Washington could damage the bilateral relationship. Over the past five years, Taiwan has sought to adopt a defense strategy that emphasizes asymmetric warfare. Parallels have been drawn between the war in Ukraine and a potential Chinese invasion of Taiwan. While these situations differ in many respects, both countries exist outside of a collective security apparatus like NATO, and both face existential threats posed by much larger and hostile neighbors.

If China did invade Taiwan the world would feel a massive economic jolt from the loss of semiconductors to a potential war with the U.S..

The “One China” policy is the cornerstone of Chinese-U.S. relations. “That would put China in a position of having to consider unleashing its vast weapons arsenal against U.S. convoys and aircraft trying to bring aid into Taiwan.” Kazianis continued: “My gut tells me Beijing would be hard pressed not to strike U.S. forces hard, going far beyond just ships and planes bringing in aid. His books and research papers explore these themes and propose pragmatic solutions to our increasingly polarized society. “There would be a worldwide shortage of supply.” “Go out and never let China swallow Taiwan.” Ford, Jaguar Land Rover, and Volkswagen – three of the biggest car manufacturers in the world – have shut down factories over the last year, reduced vehicle production, and laid off thousands of workers. The global semiconductor shortage impacts virtually every industry in the world, with low-margin processors – used in toasters and washing machines – becoming harder for manufacturers to find. It means that the Chinese government could technically initiate invasions of foreign territory while claiming that the operations are not actually war. It is a diplomatic recognition that there is only one Chinese government and that Taiwan is an “ inalienable” part of China. During the interview, Deng said that the economic impact of a Chinese invasion would be “much more significant” than the impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. “The disruption to international supply chains; disruption on the international economic order; and the chance to grow would be much, much (more) significant than this one,” Deng said.
