Taiwan halts visit by US military delegation

channelnewsasia.com/stories/ … 14/1/.html

Taiwan has quietly cancelled a visit by a US military delegation due to growing domestic objection to a controversial plan to buy advanced US weaponry worth billions of dollars, it has been reported.

The trip by the US military group, which was set to arrive in Taipei two weeks ago to discuss the massive arms sales plan, was cancelled on the eve of their departure, the China Times said, without identifying the source.

The government has recently faced rising calls to spend more on relief for central Taiwan after it was devastated by floods sparked by a typhoon in early July.


Finally the government of ROC took the right step.

Thanks for that bit of “news” from one of Singapore’s biased, government controlled propaganda machines.

Yeah, reported by a pro-blue stooge. Totally wrong, of course, but then what do you expect?
The visit was cancelled due to fears of anger on the part of typhoon victims who would see the government as giving priority to the arms deal over typhoon relief.

It wasn’t cancelled “quietly,” either – it has been widely reported in Taiwan. If you were here and had a clue, you would probably have known that.

You need better news sources.
