Forum reveals KMT hypocrisy

On May 27, 2022, Taipei Mayor Chiang Wan-an (蔣萬安) — still a mayoral candidate at the time — suggested three prerequisites for the continuation of the Shanghai-Taipei Twin City Forum: The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) could no longer harass Taiwan, must show goodwill toward the nation, and must acknowledge that Taiwan and China are equals.

Taiwan places military on high alert

The Taiwanese military is on high alert and is closely monitoring the Chinese People’s Liberation Army’s (PLA) air and naval deployments after Beijing yesterday reserved seven airspace areas east of its Zhejiang and Fujian provinces through Wednesday.

Beijing’s action was perceived as a precursor to a potential third “Joint Sword” military exercise, which national security experts said the PLA could launch following President William Lai’s (賴清德) state visits to the nation’s three Pacific allies and stopovers in Hawaii and Guam last week.

YouTuber reveals how CCP buys ‘influencers’

Taiwanese rapper Chen Po-yuan (陳柏源) in a video showed how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) bribes Taiwanese online influencers in its “united front” efforts to shape Taiwanese opinions.

Chen in the video said that China’s United Front Work Department provided him with several templates and materials — such as making news statements — with some mentioning Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) politician Hung Hsiu-chu (洪秀柱) and New Taipei City Mayor Hou You-yi (侯友宜) and asking him to write a song criticizing the Democratic Progressive Party.
