Taiwan’s independence demands during COVID-19 war unhelpful

Should Taiwan be seeking membership of the World Health Organisation (WHO) in the period of the COVID-19 crisis as a sovereign state from China?

Taiwan, a province of 23 million people, adopts much of Western ideas of government. The Japanese occupied territory was returned to China in 1945 after the Japanese surrender to Western powers after World War II.

Taiwan, by it’s people and culture, is predominantly Mandarin Chinese. The One-Country-Two Systems Policy in China clearly gives room for all satellites of China such as Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan to continue with their preferred government systems and accomplish their full potentials.

In Nigeria and some other nations, despite being highly diverse, this kind of policy is not accommodated in the constitution. The over-centralisation has hindered Nigeria’s growth and prosperity. This is not the case in China.

This period of Coronavirus war requires greater international cooperation and mutual assistance, not division and separation.
