The flock is all this about ? Singapore? What support they got to offer Taiwan anyway? They are so far up China's ass it aint even funny.

Maybe its ok for Taiwan to just finger Singapore ( uh I mean give it the finger) ??

(no wait, then maybe they will stop flights between the two places and I am planning to fly there from the wan )

Is Taiwan still training Singapore troops? I stationed in Jia-Yi 30 years ago along side a Singapore unit. You can tell they are Singapore soldiers because they wore much longer hair and look much happier. A Singapore military dentist fixed an aching tooth for me.

I think they are. Spore and Taiwan have spats now and then, but they are actually pretty close. Lee Kuan Yew is a bud of taiwans.

This is apparently a trade agreement spat.

NO.
Bad blood right now between the two.

On a side note, it look like the U.S. Navy might be opening a permanent base in Singapore.

Damn shame. I've been hoping they would chose Kaohsiung. I'd really like to open a "real" Navy bar there.

The DPP run south would welcome a US navy base. But the KMT run north would not so much as they are so busy cheeking up to the CCP. Maybe taiwan needs to split into NOrth and South Taiwan?

Singaporeans have been on some TV shows about the training. Looks like they have a lot of fun
Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it? That's what it is to be a slave!
