The Taiwan (Japan & South Korea) Contingency | When Titans Clash 2 - Part 3/3 | CNA Documentary 

I would like to see a day where this kind of media is better appreciated than silly short clips.

This a very well made feature. Thank you CNA.

Nice video,don't know how you guys got into my algorithms. But I'm glad you did. Very balanced news here.

That was very interesting to watch.

China, South Korea, Taiwan and Japan. I always love unique stories around them. Their relations are a cycle of frienemies.

Welcome back CNA Insider. Great video.

Nicely done -- all three parts! Thank you!

The Republic of Korea is a fearsome country with the potential to rank fifth in military power. China and North Korea should no longer provoke South Korea.

Tamsak done idol and full support on your video ❤ 😄💙

From Philippines we love you taiwan

Great documentary Very well done😮

Victor knows who butters his bread lol

Thank you for providing preparatory education to them 🙏 May all Taiwanese always be protected from harm. I love Taiwan ❤

cool video

Victor Gao looks like a James Bond villain

Balanced and informed journalism CNA. Good job!

World peace can only be archived through actions that are positive through diplomatic relations not by propaganda.

Kishore should become roommates with Victor Gao 😂😂

It appears that the instructor is an American operator. Good. He has real experience.

Taiwan free 🇹🇼

Yes, it's up to the people to decide. How about this. Ask Taiwanese how many of them want to to be ruled by CCP. Ask mainland Chinese how many of them would rather live under Taiwanese government. Just a thought.

Poll after poll, less than 10% of Taiwan citizens want reunification with the PRC. Why does a democratic country with high standard of living want to be ruled by a dictatorship? Although we speak the same language, but Taiwan would like to live with the PRC peacefully as two different countries, just like United States and Canada.

im about to comment about how good these cna documentaries are, but realized im not the only one in the comment section amazing

*Well done CNA this is another breakthrough excellent documentary* 💕❤

Shout out to CNA ,very good ,informative show

It is clear that the elites will escape and those who have no way to escape will suffer.

the three of you together will be more than a match

I had friends growing up in Asia who had friends and family in TPE, SIN, HK and ahem, the mainland...no downsides back then

The crux of the matter is that the US must keep up the war rhetoric..it is how they maintain their wealth..churning out military & war machines..in this case to Taiwan. Of course they would insist on Taiwan increasing it's military budget

Kishore Mahbubani...what a mouth full, however, Mr. Mahbubani is spot on. Keeping peace in Taiwan Strait, the best option is to maintain the status quo. It worked for the past 70 years but the political climate has changed on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. In Taipei, Taiwan the new president Tasi Ing-Wen and her party (Progressive Party) are pushing for Taiwan's Independence. On the China side, Beijing is no longer the weak man of Asia of a generation ago. Today, China is an economic and military superpower. Beijing is ready for unification with Taiwan by peaceful means but force will be used if Taiwan pushes for an INDEPENDENCE. Now comes the United States. who sees China as the only global competitor capable to replace America as the sole dominating power in the 21st century. This path to collision is like the ancient Peloponnesian War between Athans (dominant power) and Sparta (ascending rising military power) in 400 BC. Something has to give and Athenians did not budge and lost the war. If U.S. and China go to war, it will be the end of the civilization with nuclear strikes by hypersonic missiles and sub-launched missiles. There is no winner and no place is safe. Concession must be made between great powers to co-exist or not exist at all.

Why you're referring Japan and Korea in brackets when addressing Taiwan??? Can anyone care to explain??

Good facts cna

May Peace prevail in the Island.

As a Taiwanese, we have the right to decide our own future, the right to live free and democratic separate from China’s Communist Totalitarian Dictatorship.. We will fight to our last breath to preserve our rights and freedom.

I think the S. Korea should worried about the N. Korea instead of China.

the sanctions China did to Korea kinda backfired on them because not only did Korean companies move their factories to other countries like India and Vietnam, China lost a lot of business as these Korean companies changed their manufacturing locations. To add to that, China didnt know it was so reliant on South Korean technologies like semiconductors and memory chips that it set back China's technological sector by years

"Chine doesn't like anyone to dictate to any country". Well you should take your own advice for once. Stop dictating to Taiwan then.

War might break out suddenly!

Taiwan should declare an Independent nation

Dude I had no idea that many people died from that bomb. That's insane!

My prediction, is that the status quo will continue. China will not go to war with Taiwan, and Taiwan will never declare independence.

I dont thnk ASEAN will support USA vs China

Should’ve done what Singapore did lol

9:11 what son's and daughters most Americans don't even care for family 😂

"One Country, Two Governments" - how did that work out for Hong Kong ????? Or maybe ask Tibetans living in exile ?

Cna is a good mainstream media when it comes to reporting, keep it up n don't be biased, the other mainstream media are biased when it comes to reporting.

Taiwan is not Ukraine. They will have military support and troops from some of the most advanced nations on the planet. And they’re an island, which gives them a major defensive advantage. It’s not going to go the way China thinks.

Taiwan 🇹🇼 please keep: Happy 😀 Alert 🧐 Ready 👊 Greetings from Germany...🍺🖐

Funny: PRC:: USA, the Taiwan question is purely an "internal affair" but also PRC: USA, don't sell weapons to Taiwan, don't meddle in our internal affairs, don't send delegations, don't do this, don't do that .... PRC: Australia don't buy nuclear subs etc etc PRC: South Korea don't join the Quad etc etc Hmmm.... The words "internal affairs" in Mandarin seem to allow a very flexible usage....

If I was a Tiawan Citizen, I would purchase a bullet proof vest and a rifle and ammo equal to a M-16 or a common ammo you can purchase in Taiwan. 30-06 is a very common ammo that is easy to use and get a hold of. armed citizen is harder to defeat than un-armed citizens.

This is best time to create independence day for Taiwan 💪👍👍 never surrender for what you're doing well, strong spirit be with you all Taiwan

Everyone NO MORE DAM WAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Because of the war going on between Ukraine and Russia it’s affecting the economy,this is the right time to start up an investment

"The U.S. seduced Russia to invade Ukraine." - Wang Yiwei I didn't think this would piss me off as much as it did but you'd have to be on drugs to believe that bit of historical revisionism especially when the Russia-Ukraine war is just a few months old and we all still remember how it happened. If you're going to lie, at least make it believable.

Lets do it!

very sensitive topic

There are uses for those military assets, a communist leader won't overspend on it for no reason. The moment China expresses their interest in taking back Taiwan, they know where it will end up. So whether Taiwan chooses to maintain their current status, just like Hongkong and Macau, sooner or later China will move its force towards it. That's why Taiwan's action to improve its defense is not a question.

it's amazing how Taiwanese people handle these kind of situations for so long since there was a threat, unpredictable. so brave .

Wait military spending on tent's are they missile and bullet proof 🤔🙄

I'm not sure "strategic ambiguity" will be able to keep on withstanding all the mounting pressure of increasing ambitions and reciprocal irritations and provocative language and warped views of history, diplomatic agreements and statements. If you keep on putting heavy books on the shelves of your IKEA cupboard, one day the whole thing might collapse. It's a powder keg, and visibility in these dark moments is so low, it is difficult not to light a match in the hope to see better what the situation looks like. Matches and powderkegs however are like cat and dog.

mainland china is actually "West Taiwan". Glory to Taiwan!

We, humans, have the most challenging situation with our HOME, THE PLANET EARTH. And what I'm seen is the war, preparation of war, threatening from country to country. Is like leaders are blind or are out of mind. Is a serious situation because the citizens, the real owners of the countries don't want or need a war. Something needs to be done. Stop everything and seat to talk, not in that endless meetings that never come with a solution, but just postponed and postponed. It must be something different fast and pragmatic. URGENT THINGS NEED TO BE DONE.

prof. gao knows this isn't merely about taiwan independence.

does Kishore speak on behalf of the Singaporean government and its people? just curious

I trust the good and fair journalism of cna when compared to the many of the main western media for biased reporting. Keep up the good work.

Taiwan 🇹🇼 is Taiwan 🇹🇼 not China 🇨🇳 if it was China it would had never change its country name to Taiwan

DO VIDEOS LIKE THIS FERMENT WAR???

Trying to absorb Taiwan by force will be China's biggest mistake in its history. I served on the Korean peninsula and Japan for two decades as a Marine. The US and its allies will come to Taiwan's defense. Let me remind the Chinese that an amphibious operation is different from a land invasion like Ukraine. The US and its allies have military assets in SK, Japan, Guam, Australia, the Philippines, and other Pacific territories. The Japanese naval fleet alone can sink the entire Chinese fleet if it so desired.

Hongkong was absorbed into China. They lost their independence under the oppressive regime. Taiwan must do all to preserve her freedom /independence. Taiwanese have a right to determine their own destiny. China has not helped Taiwan develop. Taiwan must by all means defend what she has built. History cannot be used as a way of imposing outside will on a people who have settled down on a peaceful path .

I suspect a lot countries and companies will take another look at their trade with China in order to not be overly dependent on them.

No matter how high your position in the world and in your country, old people always wave at you at the beginning of the video call. "Hello! can you see me ok? How do i look? haha you look funny, move away from the camera. I can count the number of nose hair. haha."

Well I really like Taiwan and I'm very disappointed that the US has forgotten Taiwan all together .I was there in liberty there and I love you people so my heat goes out to you completely in this crazy situation may God bless all of Taiwan and all your people .

Taiwan the next battleground.

US need to train Taiwanese for long distance swimming in case of war

China leave taiwan alone .just take care their own country china.

Is Mr. Kishore Mahbubani the second Chinese Foreign Ministry Spoke person?

The Republic of China in Taiwan shall survive and defend her survival 🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼

Stay strong Taiwan! I think the Taiwanese system is way too different from mainland (in a good way), and people have formed their distinct political and cultural identities. They even use different currencies, and have a visa system for the mainlanders. As an overseas Chinese, I strongly think that TW is the last bastion of liberal Chinese discourse, culture and freedom. It would be devastating for modern Chinese culture if Taiwan turns into another HK. Edited: Just wanted to add that I have nothing against mainland Chinese. I love their rich history and also the language and culture, which I practice. Just having a differing opinion on certain sensitive topics.

Where there is a US,there is a trouble

The USA have never said the the people's Republic of China is the only china. If you check the wording from the USA is vague, deliberately vague.

Taiwan and the PRC have been separate for 70 years and outside of a 4-year period, has not had much influence over the last 500 years.

Who's kidding who? Different governments, currency, opposing military forces...Taiwan is it's own country.

*No war please* *No war please* *No war please*

Taiwan's only way out is to stride a good bargain in a peaceful reunion , or else be finished off

I love taiwan. Stop bullying taiwan. 🥺

After Taiwan was sold to Japan in 1895, the indigenous people sought independence from Japan. When Japan signed the WWII armistice, had Chiang Kai-Shek been accepted by the Taiwan indigenous peoples?

I just lost 25% of my retirement! Thanks!

Be prepared and military strong and build a missile more🙇🙇🙇

We are with you . taiwan.. God bless

*JP and SK will go all the way for TW independence*

Notice how it was three ang moh at 5:39 holding “Taiwan stands with Ukraine” signs.

This Jerry Gao guy looks like a Japanese from a century ago

China must stop violating Taiwan's🇹🇼 sovereignty in the air and Taiwan Strait.

For autocratic leaders and administration... denying is thier food to survive.

36:50 absolute chad for punching the glass with his hands even though he had gloves it is still painful to punch anything solid

It's crazy

Island people want there own life amen

Great love to you, Taiwan

Reunification is not war.
