Why was Taiwan able to prevent the coronavirus disaster? I will reveal the truth.
Mr. Kō Bun'yū's (Huang Wenxiong) article, "Why Taiwan prevented the corona disaster," from p226 to p241 of the following book, is the most important article on China, Japan, and Korea in the 21st century.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is one of the most important papers of the 21st century.
It is a must-read not only for the Japanese people but also for people worldwide.
(Emphasis in the text, except for the headline, is mine.
Success in stopping coronary heart disease depends on refusal to interact with the plague god.
The reasons for Taiwan's success in deterring the virus spread from Wuhan are discussed from various angles, including the SARS epidemic's bitter experience and The Tsai Ing-wen Cabinet's Appointment of a Young and Talented Digital Minister, Tang Feng.
Speaking of bitter experiences, immediately after the end of the war, the Chinese Nationalist Army entered Taiwan on the first order of General MacArthur, the commander of the Far Eastern Command.
Immediately after that, an epidemic broke out due to pathogens brought in by the KMT forces.
I remember this as a more bitter experience than SARS.
It is taboo to talk about this, but it is deeply ingrained in every corner of Taiwan.
It created the image of the Chinese mainland as a continent of plague at that time.
The number of Taiwanese businesspeople living in Wuhan is much larger than that of Japanese, estimated to be about one million.
They have an information network that immediately detects any unusual movement on the continent.
That is why Taiwan immediately took action when the Wuhan virus broke out.
Taiwan responded more quickly than any other country (even if China on the mainland hid information).
Just as Yukichi Fukuzawa of Japan advocated "refusal to associate with bad friends in Asia," as soon as the country opened up to the outside world, when Taiwan learned of the outbreak of the plague in Wuhan, it immediately responded with measures to "refusal to associate" with China.
When Taiwan learned of the plague outbreak in Wuhan, it immediately responded with a "no friendship" policy with China.
It was the biggest reason Taiwan successfully contained the coronary disaster.
WHO has been criticized for cooperating in concealing the Wuhan virus epidemic in light of China's intentions.
On the contrary, it may have been fortunate that Taiwan was excluded from WHO and blocked from providing all information.
It is because Taiwan can act on its judgment without being influenced by China.
