NYT praised Taiwan's Covid19 management to the sky in March while persistently spitting at China's triumph.

However just a few weeks later, the Covid19 cases have skyrocketed in Taiwan due to the variants and the quasi absence of vaccines.

Taiwan is the most important element in the US China-containment strategy. US and EU pushed for Taiwan to be invited to the WHA as an independent country so the world can benefit from its precious Covid19 control experience. However, at this critical time in Taiwan,

none of its western allies proposed help, notably providing vaccines. Rather, the West worries that the chip supply could be interrupted, Taiwan's TSMC being the world's main chip supplier.

US caused the worldwide chip shortage through its sanctions of Huawei

creating a worldwide panic. Everyone began to stockpile chips leading to a severe chip shortage affecting the US automobile industry very badly. US car makers have lost 27,000 jobs due to chip interruption. TSMC being shut down would be lethal for Apple and US car makers.

At this crucial moment, Mainland China proposed sending Taiwan vaccines and test kits. Taiwan is acting like India... Resentful reluctant suspicious embarrassed not knowing what to do, fearing Mainland China would turn it into a geopolitical advantage.

So right now Taiwan is fiercely debating everyday. The West doesn't care about Indian/Taiwan lives or democracy, the only thing they are interested in is to use India/Taiwan to contain China and maybe Taiwan's chips which are worth gold today.

When Taiwan India are abandoned by the coalition of democracies, China offered help. Is it wise for India and Taiwan to still continue to bite the helping hand? If they are not embarrassed, Chinese people are embarrassed for them.

When Covid19 was ravaging in China, NYT didn't show sympathy to the sick and dying in China but complained that everyone in the world is suffering economically, from multinationals to truck drivers to tour guides...
