8/12/2010-- The
Taiwan
Strait can certainly be characterized as “troubled waters.” Ever since
the Chinese Nationalist Party’s (KMT) defeated troops retreated to
Taiwan at the end of the civil war, there has been tension across the
strait, first because of Chiang Kai-shek’s dreams of “recovering the
mainland” and more recently because of Beijing's insistence that
Taiwan
is part of
China.
