    Good on them, standing up for the brave Taiwanese, who have defied the most bloodthirsty regime in history for 60 years.

    “the Asian country has done much to improve the socio-economic well being of people in developing countries”

    Does that sound like 'thanks for the pay off' to anybody else?

    Morally void governing elite: no there is a surprise. At least China now knows what it has to do to get the rat Gonsalves and his cronies onside...

    At least THIS story doesn't call them “Chinese Taipei” It's nice that VG's broken clock is right once a day, but yeah, @5, two-faced indeed.

    This little nation has courage and has no invidious feelings towards China.It stands up before the giant and says you are wrong without fear. I think that China respects that very much and much does Taiwan....I take off my hat to you.

    Argyland and Taiwan obviously pay this “keep it in the family” govt more than the going rate. Wonder if regime change has ever crossed their minds.

    Have you any notion of the antipathy between Taiwan and China ?
    China has ignored Grenadines and St.Vincent's statement because their countries are of no significance and have no political clout.
    Could it be that Taiwan is bankrolling the governments ?
    When I was in the Seychelles years ago I noticed support for Taiwan on billboards. I then notice that Taiwan had the largest fishing fleet in Seychelle's waters. A coincidence ? Money talks.
