I have no idea how SCMP is allowed to continue to function when they write stuff like this. This is actively participating in information warfare against the country, there needs to be a national security review of this paper.

Former president Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) on Monday said he would not attend the official Double Ten National Day celebrations for the first time this year, as its English name, “Taiwan National Day,” implies “Taiwan independence.”
Writing on Facebook, Ma said he has attended every National Day celebration since entering public service 40 years ago, but “with an exceedingly heavy heart,” has decided to reject this year’s invitation.
For the past three years, the government under President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) has used “Taiwan National Day” for the event’s official English-language title, leaving the “Republic of China” nowhere to be found, he said.
The move also goes against the Constitution and endangers security in the Taiwan Strait, he added, calling it “extremely detrimental and irresponsible.”
Continuing to attend the Oct. 10 celebration under these circumstances would “in a roundabout, furtive way be an endorsement of ‘Taiwan independence,’” Ma said, urging voters to remove the current government in January.
New Taipei City Mayor Hou You-yi (侯友宜), the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) presidential candidate, in the comments echoed Ma’s protest.
“Our country is the Republic of China and cannot be deliberately forgotten — even erased — by the Democratic Progressive Party government,” he wrote. “There must be a transition of power in 2024.”
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of an event in Taipei, Premier Chen Chien-jen (陳建仁) said he does not understand why Ma has chosen this year to boycott the event, after attending under the same circumstances in previous years.
“National Day is a day for the nation to move forward together,” he said. “Hopefully everyone may unite in celebration and together defend the sovereignty, freedom and democracy of the Republic of China.”
Lets wait a couple of months, just like Meloni in Italy...
Orban gets another friend in Slovakia. After Poland, it looks like the Visegrad countries are mostly jumping ship regarding the Banderite black hole. Do you guys think we will see the end of the war by next New Year?
Oh yeah BTW for those above in the thread debating on the value of Humanities majors, I have a personal anecdote for you. I can't give the details but I'm working with a certain academic from a certain high-level social science institute in mainland China, among other people, on a research project that is part of the overall work to debunk Western distortions of history. So yeah, we have our own 'contributors' in these fields. Some of you should be less concerned about whether Chinese people have such things covered, and some of you need to make fewer generalisations.
