All's not well in China, page-182

China owns Taiwan since 1973 under the UN One China
policy go which the US and Australia and virtually all
the UN members are a party to.

Taiwan was a dictatorship from 1949 to 1996 when it held
its first Presidential election.

If the US now wants to recognise Taiwan as a separate country
to China , it like Aus should do the right thing and bring a vote in the UN
for a reversal of the 1973 One China Charter.

Otherwise , the UN is redundant, IMO and if we want to buck
UN Policy, then we should bailout and save the Aussie Taxpayers Billions .
