SkyDekker 1,465 #51 March 15, 2005 Quote don't think they will declare independence in the next ten years as you do. I also think you should take a look at how much $$ Taiwanese companies are generating by doing business on/with mainland China. Then tell me, what do you think will happen when China no longer allows those Taiwanese companies to do business with the mainland? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frenchy68 0 #52 March 15, 2005 QuoteThen tell me, what do you think will happen when China no longer allows those Taiwanese companies to do business with the mainland? They won't. Since the PRC considers Taiwan a renegade province, they consider these companies as Chinese companies. China needs the know how of these Taiwanese companies, and the fact that it is a good loophole to the outside world business community.

catysung 0 #57 May 9, 2008 China sucks... I was told that the airplane will only go up to 9900 for the 2009 world game because if it goes higher, the missles from China will be fired to Taiwan. Taiwan is independent. Why do we need to declare that? no matter what they say. I am from Taiwan and I don't have Chinese passport. I don't follow their laws nor pay tax to their government.From Taiwan. Come play! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cloudseeker2001 0 #58 May 11, 2008 Quote Well, China has now passed a law enabling mainland China to use "non-peacefull" means to prevent Taiwan from becoming fully independent. secondly, Bush in his latest "coronation" speech indicated that the US would help and come to the aid of all countries to protect freedom and democracy around the world. Think the US would ever go to war with China to aid Taiwan? I sure hope not. I will not fight for Taiwan and I think it just stupid to start a world war for an island such as Taiwan. I have nothing against those people, but, war over Taiwan is not in our best interest.And I said this about Iraq, but everyone loved the idea of that war! No doubt, YOU, will be tricked into war again! YOU SUCKERS!!!!!!

BillyVance 34 #59 May 12, 2008 If China ever comes to the point where they get ready to militarily force Taiwan to submit to their will, I hope them chinese gook bastards get hit by a giant earthquake worse than the one that hit them yesterday. They won't be in a mood to fight for Taiwan then.

Skyrad 0 #60 May 12, 2008 I don't think it has the capability in the current situation. To tied up elsewhere. More likely that if they did they'd do their best to drag Australia, New Zealand and the UK into the fray. I think Australia would and so would NZ but I think there would be massive outcry. Not sure if the UK would but most likely yes.When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

No, you took it out of context. If there was a confrontation brewing between Taiwan and China, and China wanted to flex their muscle, that's when it oughta happen. But you know what? As hard as they've been touting their Olympics, this earthquake hit 2-1/2 months too soon and 800 miles too far away. Wouldn't that ruin their moment?

Damn he even speaks mandarin ....and if the choice came to going to war with america AGAIN for no real gain.....Good luck As for NZ........couldn't see it happening.... Probably SAS units and that would be it..... And what about all the chinese in the US, Australia, UK..... You guys are afraid of a few Terrorists????... You really think they would all sit back if you declared war China? Are you going to put them all into camps?........And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!

BillyVance 34 #71 May 13, 2008 You guys are right, I am being ignorant. I am no fan of China's government to be honest. Yeah, my words were harsh, but when a government imprisons dissidents and executes people for next to nothing, and uses shoddy materials and construction methods, it seems like they don't really care about their own people, just the ones in power. Communist pigs. I just tell it like I see it, and I don't mince words. I hate being politically correct.

Wishing pain, death and destruction on innocent people isn't politically correct. Nope... I would prefer that those in power in the communist party be pained, killed and destroyed so the common people can decide for themselves how they want to be governed, but it just doesn't always work that way. Maybe I mis-directed my ire. The common people there are no different than the common people here. It's the people in power who are assholes. Yeah, by that comment, even the U.S. has assholes in government, with Cheney being the biggest prick. Well lets see if China learns anything from the devastation this quake caused. I'd like to hope they would upgrade construction standards to levels like in California, I just won't hold my breath. But man, it's hard to build anything that'll stand up in a 7.9 quake.
