Taiwan's opposition KMT held its biggest presidential campaign rally yet, & top brass all showed up to endorse Hou Yu-ih.

Themes:
1. KMT unity (mobilize the base)
2. Republic of China = Peace (msg: DPP=war)
3. NOBODY talks about 3rd party Ko Wen-je (msg: KMT is only alternative)

Using Twitter less and my work is better for it. This place can warp your view of reality—especially for journalists. Most people don’t care about stuff Twitter thinks is vital. It’s become a huge but grand scheme irrelevant release valve for internalised rage and incompetence.

We are hugely proud of our Defence Attaché to the US RAdm Tim Woods.
He's been honoured as a CBE by King Charles III for 'inspirational' leadership and 'standing firm in the face of aggression' as DA to Kyiv, Ukraine, pre & post 2022's Russian invasion.
Congratulations, Sir.

Said it before and worth repeating. It helps to think of TBI as an unofficial Foreign Office in our space. Massive links abroad, feeding data and ideas back into HQ in London. Sharp team too!

“if a seven-year-old began reading in 2023, they would get through roughly 770 books in their lifetime, according to actuarial tables. A 30-year-old might have around 500 left to read. And someone in their 70s might be down to their last 100.” economist.com/graphic-detail…

TikTok's Global Platform Anomalies Align with the Chinese Communist Party's Geostrategic Objectives

In collaboration + Rutgers University, our report takes a data-driven approach: Does TikTok promote or demote content on the basis of CCP interests?

Short answer: It certainly seems so🧵

No two ways about it: The UK govt should ban TikTok.

The PRC’s reimposition of tariffs on a dozen products from Taiwan comes as no surprise. Experts have signaled this for months. This is likely the first of several waves. I expect that only items easily obtained from other sources will be included.

Taiwan's presidential poll - MyFormosa, Dec 18-20.

36.3 - DPP
32.8 - KMT ⬆️
17.7 - TPP

- KMT is catching up.
- DPP frontrunner gets stuck in a bad news cycle about his childhood home lacking the right building license -- Lai grew up in a shoddy house in a dirt poor mining area.

A visit to Guangzhou was long overdue. Weather chilly but welcome warm from Guangdong Vice Governor Zhang Xin and Guangzhou Vice Mayor. We discussed challenges - energy, climate, health, economic - that benefit from 🇬🇧 🇨🇳 collaboration
