    It always amazes me how calm they are in the face of the threat from their much larger and more powerful neighbor.

      Because Mainland China has been always kind to ordinary Taiwanese, differentiating them from those pro-independence separatists who are the real target of PLA.

      ​@tianzhou1083 Another CCP bot spreading lies! The Surname 周 is translated as chou in Taiwan, not Zhou.
      Zhou is only used in the PRC China.

    Interesting! VOA interviewed younger generation who are cautious on this and found a middle aged guy who has a very aggressive view on this. Usually, media finds hot-head younger generation and calmer and more reasoned older generation. I am glad at least some of the younger Taiwanese have more common sense.
