During the Dutch colonial period(1624-1661)and Tungnin Kingdom period(1661-1683), China and Japan were balanced by the power in Taiwan. As a result, Taiwan straits provided free international access to international trade among South East Asia, North East Asia(including Japan) and China. Taiwan's harbors worked as free export transits, with Western, South Eastern, Chinese and Japanese businessmen trading in Taiwan and their goods transshipped in Taiwan. The then prosperity was a result of balance of powers. With this in mind, one can easily see that 「ECFA」 and「ASEAN plus 3」 are made by China to isolate Taiwan further and are designed to facilitate China's dominance in East Asia. Supporting Taiwan can contribute significantly to the peace and prosperity in East Asia, singing ECFA with an emerging China can deteriorate seriously the imbalance of power in East Asia only. |
