Pixel by pixel, Taiwan maps out claims to contested South China Sea

few care about the claims of taiwan because taiwan has no way to enforce its claims like mainland china could,and since taiwan isnt even recognized as nation by UN or vast majority of this world there are many ways to refute its claims.
 
Japan will support Taiwan!

Because we are brothers!


Now, what are Vietnam and Philippine going to say?

I think both of them already taste the might of Japan military power.

Embargoed these countries from JAV, they will collapse in less than an hour!

Japan surely didnt support Taiwan in diaoyu islands claims, although you are allowed to get "fishing" agreement.

After China, Taiwan has the 2nd strongest navy among SCS claimants. The only thing stopping Taiwan from making mincemeat of the PH after the 2012 fishermen massacre was US diplomatic intervention. Otherwise, Pinoys could have been reliving their Bataan march days.

As long as taiwan cant shake off the influence of US AND being recognized as independent power it wont matter anyway, politically nobody recognize taiwan, and with such "strong" millitary you have to listen to somebody across the ocean in your own claims and conflicts, its hopeless for taiwan.
 
Again, making jokes and supposedly "funny" suggestion about non-Chinese involved WW-2 incident like Bataan Death March? Maybe I should start making jokes about Nanjing.

I'm guessing this comment is directed at me? There was nothing joking or humorous about what I said. Actually, we can empathize because we too underwent gruesome war crimes. My point was that your navy is significantly weaker than Taiwan's. Moreover, Taiwanese retain a lot of Japanese-style bloodthirstiness and militarism because they were colonized during their imperial era. Taiwan could very well have acted on their dormant urges.

I am aware that PH Navy is weak but that Bataan war crime is something that can be seen as a sore point about the PH-Japan relations. Anyways, if Taiwan decided to turn deaf to US and attack us, won't that mean something to the Mainland which could see Taiwan as a threat as it would show they (Taiwanese government) are willing to use force against anyone that threatens them and their people?

No. They were a threat to the mainland up to the 70's, because they had a formidable navy and CSK openly professed to wanting to launch an amphibious operation. But now our navy has far surpassed theirs. Also, we didn't kill any of their fishermen, so I'm not sure where the casus belli would come from.
 
I guess Taiwan claim mainland too.
As ignorant as you are, you actually "guessed" it right. Taiwanese government DOES claim the mainland China territory. Not only that, they claim Mongolia as well! That is because the Old Chinese government, Republic of China, which flee to Taiwan, never recognized the independence of Mongolia from China.

There, a little history lesson for you ;)
