Taipei City by night
(via isweatintaiwan)
Tsua-Lei-Dan (Documentary - 2012)
Tsua-Lei-Dan tells the story of Taiwan, the only modern democracy not recognized by the United Nations. After nearly five decades of oppression, the people of Taiwan must now face the challenges of the 21st century. The country remains divided between those who want to establish closer ties to China, and those who strive for independence and autonomy. Will Taiwan emerge as an example of thriving democracy in Asia, or will the west stand by as China asserts its claim to the island? This question and others will be explored by political icons Lee Teng-hui and Peng Ming-min, as well as other Taiwanese politicians, businessmen, musicians, filmmakers, and citizens.
蔡依琳 - 台灣的心跳聲
少一點傷痕 多一點的掌聲
少一點戰爭 多一點的單純
認真用棒球魂 揮汗去體會青春
用心聽著 那臺灣的心跳聲
I like. :)
Happy 100th birthday to Taiwan! <3
Last year on 10/10, my sibs and I took a picture reppin’ Taiwan. I was the only one who didn’t have a Taiwan t-shirt, so my 妹妹 Katelyn got me one from Taiwan! This year, I finally have a t-shirt to match my siblings.. but my brothers are busy studying for exams. :(
Anyways, I just wanted to show off my t-shirt cause I think it’s pretty cool. (I also love how it fits so much better than t-shirts I buy here.)
I was talking to one of my professors about Taiwan and he says “Oh, you know that Taipei has a baseball team right?” and I said “I think so, baseball is pretty big in Taiwan.”And he says “yeah, they’re called the Personalities”…and I said “really?? That’s what they call it in English??”
and he said “Yep, the Taipei Personality….they’re all “Type-“A Personalities, get it hahaha?”
Just devoured one. I should’ve remembered to ask my daddy to bring some home from Taiwan. T_T
