[EXCLUSIVE PREMIERE] (ENG/中字)
As Chinese curbs on Taiwan intensify, several countries broke off formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan throughout the years. Finding itself in a beleaguered and precarious position, Taiwan applies unconventional approaches for boosting its visibility in the international society during Tsai Ingwen’s presidency. For this island nation, the COVID19 pandemic presented a peril as well as an opportunity. By donating surgical masks to countries in need, Taiwan was reciprocated with the muchneeded vaccines and new allies. In order to preserve regional stability and peace, Taiwan has been bolstering its selfdefense capability, which is seen in its indigenous submarine and fighter jet projects. Through exclusive interviews with political heavyweight from democracies around the globe, including US speaker emerita Nancy Pelosi, member of Japanese House of Representatives Furuya Keiji, and member of Lithuanian Parliament Matas Maldeikis, we delve into how Taiwan transformed from a besieged nation into a proactive and indispensable member of the global community.
