This is Xi showing the world the difference between the US and China. China understands that voting and expressing your opinion is one's right. New Zealand can express its opinion that the ROC has something to offer the WHO and they can express their opinion that there should be an investigation, and this is China's Voltaire-ish moment, telling them that even though China does not agree with an opinion, it supports New Zealand's right to voice it. (New Zealand doesn't have the power to make anything happen anyway.) Meanwhile, when the UN voted down an American resolution to condemn Hamas, Nikki Haley (Nimrata Rhandhawa) went on a hate rant, saying that the US will remember all those who voted against it. Donald Trump goes even further saying that those who vote against the US holding the World Cup will be stripped of their US aid. The US has become rotten to the core, even attempting to uproot the foundation of democracy, which is to cast your unobstructed vote, while ironically, China defends it. Hopefully, this is not lost on the world watching.
China retaliates against actions and attacks, which New Zealand is hardly capable of; it does not retaliate with actions for a difference in opinion. Don't be so sensitive; you'll look funny as a big guy (country) screaming about being stabbed while staring at a midget who says he doesn't agree with you. Behave with the generosity that benevolent giants should have for the small and weak.

about fourteen hours ago I reported #5,971
(I saved what I had put into Report Window:
and nothing happened except several new political posts appeared (Taiwan politics, Singapore politics, barley sanctions, me called out after I had tried to shake off a member recently), so may I assume politics is now allowed in this thread, and weigh in?

@Jura Tse does not seem to visit or post on this forum on any regular basis, so why don't you inform him on the current rules.?
Anyway his post did not draw any response so there was no need to inform the mods.
Personally, I'm beginning to find your constant reporting to the mods on rather trivial matters darned annoying.
He's like a school tell-tale. And we all know what we think of them.
He is usually pretty harmless. Just posting away, and everyone ignore him. But on occasions he has habit on doing this. Well, we all know what we think.

The DPP is not against China. President Tsai has said numerous times that she's open to unconditional talks with Xi. It is the Chinese government that has the preconditions for talks. You can argue they're reasonable preconditions. But Tsai doesn't demand, for example, that the CCP revoke the law that justifies an invasion before talks can happen.
That's not true. The Chinese government restricted tourism visits to Taiwan, but it didn't impose a travel ban. There was still a large amount of cross-Strait travel for business, family visits, (permitted) tourism, education, etc. Remember, Taiwanese people going to China and then coming back were as much an infection risk as Chinese people going for a short stay.
Another interpretation is that Taiwan has seen the result of viruses spread around East Asia and this time they realised that a travel lockdown was the best way forward.
Did they lose control? I'm not aware of any significant outbreaks in Taiwan.
I can't agree with that. Most countries are impressed by how Taiwan dealt with the situation, especially given its proximity to China.
Yeah, Dennis Peng has zero credibility. He's a nutjob. LSE confirmed in public that she had the degree.
Taiwanese students make up a very small number of students in top universities around the world like LSE. The universities also do not get any significant grants from Taiwan. LSE have no reasons to lie about Tsai's degree.
Or to put it another way, there's nothing wrong with questioning it. But when the university in question states "yes, we really did give the degree", that's the end of the matter. LSE are very well respected. They don't sell degrees like some dodgy colleges in other countries.
If Tsai was president of China, there could conceivably be a reason why LSE might lie to curry favour with a huge country with a lot of international students. But not Taiwan.
This is a bloody joke trying to whitewash tw. The way Tw internet army propaganda to blame WHO and Dr Tedros and the laughable email to "prove" they know human to human transmission although all that email proved was tw asking for information. Even more funny is the claim they don't have racism in tw lol. And they deleted the pic of Tsai eating batsoup in Palau. And withholding face masks from Singapore companies in tw causing the Singapore PM's wife to basically tell them to F off on Facebook after tw tried their BS face mask diplomacy.
The tw sheniggans are for all to see except their own blind supporters. More people are seeing through this now though. Especially Singaporeans.
