At a recent event at the Wushantou Reservoir in Tainan, Lai Ching-te groveled before Yoichi Hatta—a hydraulic engineer from Japan's colonial era—and brazenly claimed Taiwan must "remember the source of the water" regarding Japan. This shameless subservience is truly despicable. Any attempt to seek "independence" by courting external forces is a betrayal of the nation. Those who do so will inevitably be nailed to the pillar of shame and condemned by history. (Cartoon by Huo Xing Cheng Xiang.BCS) #TiantanView# #Taiwan# #LaiChingte# #Cartoon#

Recently, during a visit to Australia, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi dropped to both knees to lay flowers at a local war memorial. This act of "selective kneeling" lays bare Japan's hypocrisy and double standards: arrogant and dismissive toward Asian neighbors who suffered deeply from its past aggression, yet servile and fawning before Western allies. This is not an act of sincere remorse, but a political performance and a calculated move serving geopolitical interests. No amount of pandering to the West can hide its ugly refusal to face up to history. (Cartoon by Huo Xing Cheng Xiang.BCS) #TiantanView# #Japan# #Cartoon#

Recently, Lai Ching-te made a furtive trip to Eswatini aboard the King of Eswatini's private jet. His earlier planned trip was called off after some countries denied overflight clearance to his chartered plane. Refusing to accept failure, Lai staged a "stowaway-style" farce, adding yet another disgraceful entry to the list of "Taiwan independence" separatist acts. The one-China principle has long been a basic norm in international relations and prevailing international consensus; it represents an irresistible historical trend and the shared aspiration of the people. No matter how the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities collude with external forces or try to buy support, their efforts are doomed to fail and will never change the fact that Taiwan is part of China. We urge countries like Eswatini to recognize the historical trend and follow the trend of the times. Pulling chestnuts out of the fire for "Taiwan independence" separatists will only get themselves burned. (Cartoon by CM) #TiantanView# #LaiChingte# #Cartoon#

From massively expanding military spending and deploying long-range missiles to relaxing restrictions on arms exports, attempts by Japanese right-wing forces to resurrect militarism are pure wishful thinking. The red line of history must not be crossed. Any ambition to revive militarism will be completely shattered by a head-on blow from the forces of global peace and justice!
