Late to this, but a few things I learned at @jojjeols ’s excellent talk: 1. Taiwan went through the second longest martial law rule in the world. 2. Taiwanese voters change their minds, A LOT.

The government sees the English language as key to Taiwan's future. But views on its "Bilingual 2030" policy are split.

I’m convince Mandarin teachers teach 1:1 English = Chinese and zero connotations. A friend just posted “if you’re in town please reach out” and it sounded like he’s asking for donations?

Have… Have protests been normalized in China? Translation: Guangzhou arrivals from last night still resisting quarantine. Chengdu and Nanjing arrivals have been able to depart the airport without 5+3 quarantine before the Jan 8 quarantine lift.

The people of Hong Kong should be up for the Nobel Peace Prize. Two million protesters — orderly, recycling, giving way to ambulances as massive crowds part, giving safety hat and gear to visiting foreign correspondents — what better example of peaceful resistance in 2019?
