China intent on taking over Taiwan: US expert
By William Lowther / Staff Reporter in WASHINGTON
Wed, Apr 13, 2011 - Page 1
A new analysis of China’s latest defense white paper concludes that it is part and parcel of Beijing’s “political warfare against Taiwan.”
The analysis by Richard Fisher, a senior fellow on Asian military affairs at the Washington-based International Assessment and Strategy Center, said the white paper “provides a disturbing insight into the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) strategy of coercive envelopment of Taiwan.”
Fisher said the paper was “a stark reminder of the PRC’s [People’s Republic of China] ongoing strategy of economic and political ‘united front’ warfare combined with military intimidation, which the PRC could decide to change into a direct military campaign at any point in the future.”
The white paper, released on March 31, should be seen as a weapon to convey the CCP’s “divide and conquer” strategy against Taiwan, he said.
Fisher said passages in the white paper that are ostensibly addressed to the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) are “calm and straightforward,” but make clear it is time to begin political negotiations that could ultimately end Taiwan’s era of freedom.
Pro-PRC factions within the KMT are “quite willing” to push the CCP’s goals, Fisher wrote.
Meanwhile, passages seemingly targeted at the Democratic Progressive Party are “harsh and likely presage how the CCP will treat the Taiwanese once they gain control,” Fisher wrote.
Carefully going through the white paper point by point, Fisher said it amounts to an “emphatic rejection” of the current “status quo” and that the PRC makes it clear the growth in economic relations and personal contacts with Taiwan that it has allowed since 2008 “are not for the benefit of the people of Taiwan but to assist the PRC’s ultimate goal of conquest.”
“The CCP wants the KMT to start political negotiations regarding Taiwan’s future now,” he wrote.
The PRC’s defense white paper is another “douse of cold water” for Washington from Beijing, Fisher wrote.
“The agenda that it reveals should diminish further hopes that the PRC will eventually become a partner that shares US and Western global interests,” he wrote.
“The white paper’s direct intervention into Taiwan’s political debate about its future is coercive in nature and affirms that despite its many recent actions to alleviate tensions with Taiwan, it is doing so to advance its consistent goal of taking over Taiwan,” he said.
Fisher said that given the growing military imbalance against Taiwan, it is imperative that the US Department of State review its longstanding restrictive interpretation of the Taiwan Relations Act’s requirement that the US sell only “defensive weapons” to Taiwan.
“State Department restrictive interpretations serve to deny Taiwan access to modern weapons such as the Lockheed Martin ATACMS (deep strike precision surface to surface missiles) that could effectively deter a PLA [People’s Liberation Army] invasion, and thus a PRC decision to attack Taiwan,” Fisher wrote.

我想紅十字會本身意義並沒有錯
做錯的是那些濫用資金以及資源的高層..
但在制度下卻充滿著想鑽漏洞的惡者= =

提醒一下...這是民國80年的事情了-.-
那現在買郵票的錢
還會被中飽私囊嗎?
1張10元耶!!
但這篇文所說的歷史事件
好像是神奇寶貝的吧!
說什麼別班都已經賣掉了多少多少錢,我們班都沒愛心什麼的(重點錯)
非洲軍閥利用國際救援組織的補助餵飽自家人,才會把殘渣送給平民。
補助與不補助都是進退兩難,這些自私的人是不斷累積的惡性循環。
現在是掛豬頭賣狗肉,換湯不換藥

save Taiwan
Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) presidential hopeful Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) yesterday said she would reassess the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) if elected next year, but did not say whether she would seek its nullification.
During a radio interview with the Broadcasting Corporation of China, Tsai said that if she were elected president, her administration would take a second look at the trade pact, which was signed with China in June last year, and she criticized the government for failing to refer the trade pact to the WTO, as it had promised to do.
“The pact must be made transparent internationally. We can’t have other trading partners questioning what sort of trade exchanges we have with China,” she said. “It will have an impact on our other trade relationships.”
