    Hi Palki from Mexico. Nice job with that! You summed it all up very well! I also just watched a perspective from an American, who mentioned should war break out between China & Taiwan, the odds are extremely high that India will take advantage of that and cross into Tibet..., there are so many scenarios that could unfold should conflict break out. Hopefully everything stays as is, and the Taiwanese are left alone and continue to live their own lives, as is the status quo ..

      She failed to mentioned the Qing dynasty (Manchurian) was not considered Chinese she also failed to mentioned the Hakka Chinese people was not the original founder of Taiwan either the island was founded by the indigenous people for thousands of years prior to the Dutch occupation and the migration of the Hakka Chinese to the Taiwan in the 16th century.
      ROC was the original founders of both modern China and modern Taiwan and was recognized by the United Nations from 1912 to 1979 not the PRC in 1971 US led United Nations and the PRC came together to makes an illegal agreement between themselves without Taiwan participating in it to removed Taiwan from the United Nations members and to recognized Taiwan as part of China ever since then the PRC have been using that illegal agreement to claimed the right over Taiwan as part of China illegally 😂🤣😂

Chiang Kai-shek did bring gold to Taiwan to rebuild financial system in order to feed their 1.5 million refugees which retreated with him from China, but their gold and other assets are far from enough, therefore Kuomintang release New Taiwan Dollars to exchange Old Taiwan Dollars, and exchange rate was 40000(OTD) to 1 (NTD), by doing this, Chiang Kai-shek transfer whole Taiwanese‘s private property into their state owned assets.

    Everyone wants the right to protect their own security, business and interest. It’s all about power and greed that’s what’s always been since the start. More power = more greed = more business = more control = more interest = more security = more protection and the list goes on, folks when you factor all these things in one category than, you’ll truly understand why politicians do what they do.

      This does not mention the real reason why China wants it. The world has 8 choke points and controlling the open ocean around Taiwan means that China cannot get its navy out to protect things like oil tankers. If China cannot control the pacific and Indian Ocean choke points or at least keep them open they can be put under any kind of sanctions any time.
      Imagine they are restricted from oil and mining equipment like NK.
      It is about keeping warm water ports open for russia and China and it’s purely strategic
      If the choke points close they have to accept USD)

      China desperately needs diversion, from vanishing bank money to failed COVID response, Chinese starts protest and blame the government. War is the great way to distract Chinese discontent. All those war mongering are meant for discontent Chinese people, Taiwanese on the other hand is just a victim of CCP leaders's grandiose narcissism.

    Most of the Chinese who came here were Hokkien speakers, not Hakka. It is important to note the original people of Taiwan are Taiwanese Aboriginals who have been here for thousands of years. NO government controlled most of the island before the Japanese came here in 1895 as until then more than half of the island was under tribal Aboriginal control. We were at most only on the edge of the Chinese empire historically.
