Ya, most probably they have Japanese blood.Dude, I have Taiwanese colleagues.
Or they are trying to placate you.
There are so many Taiwanese, and you happen to associate only with anti China elements.
We have some anti China views in Singapore as well, including my children until I rectify their thoughts.
An example, I told them India got people open shitting.
They say this happen in China as well, and showed me an example.
I told them its a mind boggling 600 million everywhere in India, and they shut up.
They don't eat so much Indian curry as well after this.
