Taiwan's shrinking circle of friends: Palau warns against lure of fast money

[@arthura9046]

singapore CNA ? WHY are not duly mentioning the United Nation and Singapore‘s stance on the One-China principle ? What are the treaties ? what are the historical background ? how and for how long has Taiwan been colonized by a forieng country ? what was the civil war in the 1040s ? you can do a better report ?

[@kujuakusg]

🤣🤣🤣

[@basque888]

Because CNA is now run by ex-BBC editors with Singapore taxpayers money.

[@biggpicture2930]

​ @basque888 at street level, singaporean will fist fight me if i said bad thing about china. however CNA is always anti china.

[@ltribley]

Once he mentioned that he supports the U.S. Hegemonic Rules Based Order rather than the overriding United Nations International order we can see that he’s acting in the best interests of the U.S. not the citizens of his country. In this case one only needs to follow the money and influences of U.S. funded NGO’s in the country.

I wonder how much money Taiwan has been giving to Palao government. It is impossible that no money is involved. Most countries do this in diplomacy. America does it too.

[@BlueShark-kb6xg]

We're making good money... How about it?!...

[@truthseeker000000]

As a Singaporean watching this report; I'm wondering - Why is CNA reporting on Palau's relationship with Taiwan. Taiwan IS China. It doesn't help that one of my country's news broadcasting company (CNA) is "promoting" Taiwanese diplomatic relationships with Palau.

[@ThickBanana]

Taiwan is free to do what it wants. They don't have to ask Xi Jinping's China for anything.

Reunification between Taiwan and the Mainland is a matter of time. No country can prevent it. Taiwan’s international fate was, in fact, sealed a long time ago at the Cairo Conference in 1943 when Franklin D. Roosevelt and Winston Churchill agreed with Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek on the return of Taiwan to China. When Lee Teng-hui was president, he began a process of Taiwanisation - emphasising the island’s separateness from China. But that will not change the outcome of eventual reunification. All it does is make it more painful for the Taiwanese when reunification actually happens. Lee Kuan Yew.

With the US national debt of 34 trillion USD and rising by 1 trillion every 100 days, Palau is unwise to rely wholly on the US govt for financial aid. Sooner or later the US debt volcano will make itself felt on Palau. Better diversify your economy while the going is good.
