I heard one of our liberal politicians complaining last week that the Taiwan issue is the most important world problem at the moment (in his opinion), and he was disgusted that the world's media has been largely ignoring it. Until I heard this I did not realise that the topic had become such a hot issue. I know the subject flares up from time to time, but it seems that things are starting to get serious. Anyone know what has suddenly happened to stir this all up again?
I wonder what Bush will do if a military conflict does flare up between China and Taiwan. I guess the US is already fully committed elsewhere?
