Hello from Taiwan, everyone! I haven't lived here for all that long but it's really a fantastic country. It has it's problems for sure but it's a great place to visit. Here are some other random things about Taiwan:
I recently had a medical issue that required 5 doctors visits, a blood test, an ultrasound and two weeks worth of medication. In total this cost me around $30 USD.
All citizens here can vote.
Taiwan was the first country in Asia to legalise same sex marriage.
People can and do regularly criticise their government, even on TV. Oh we can access the internet freely as well! CEOs also don't randomly disappear after speaking critically about the countries leadership.
Back when China shot a bunch of missiles into the sea around the country (fuck you, btw), the news was interviewing people asking them if they were worried and it was great. There was a fisherman they talked to and he just waved his and and said "whatever, we just don't fish there today".
It's a pretty strange and cool feeling to be able to "buy local" when purchasing laptops and electronics at least for me who lived in a country without much manufacturing beforehand.
So anyway, I don't really know what I'm trying to say except that Taiwan is an awesome country. Hopefully the geopolitical situation can improve for us one day. Hope you're all doing awesome wherever you are.
