As 1 of the only members here with direct ties to Taiwan, here is what my inlaws said about China.
They don't like China and nor do majority of the country. When COVID first began, Taiwan was already watching China closely back in Oct 2019. Then in Jan 2020, they closed off their country. China screwed them over the Swine Flu a decade prior. So bad that till this day, the MRT (train) has signs that say no pigs allowed on board. These are nice trains too, not like the shitty ones you see in India packed with people overflowing. The trains have WIFI and are nice and cool due to the AC. They're very clean, almost brand new looking. So for them to have a special sign that says no pigs allowed means something.
China has a hard on for Taiwan, and if it wasn't for the US, they would have invaded many years ago. And would win because they out number Taiwan. For comparison, Taiwan is like Hong Kong. HK people want the CCP out of their area and to be on their own. This is what Taiwan is. HK is trying to be like Taiwan, so just look at it that way.
HK was 1 step closer to independence until COVID hit. They just removed CCP type education from their school system. This is what the 100,000 HK person protest accomplished. Then COVID hit and the streets were empty. Then the CCP ruled it can imprison HK people for speaking bad about the CCP and extradite them to mainland China. So Corona isn't tin foil, it was China's hail mary. Losing HK, lost the trade war to the US, how much longer before other countries follow suit?
A week into the new president, China is testing him to see what they can get away with by violating Taiwan airspace. China won and will test more I predict.
