Taiwan raises $17.2 million donation for Japan quake aid

Amazing!

Taiwanese people have once again shown their generosity and kindness.

Unbelievable generosity from Taiwan in Japans darkest hour of need.

There is no nation on earth that loves Japan like free, democratic, progressive Taiwan. And that is why Japan should always protect Taiwan from aggressor Communist China, no matter what.

Taiwan buying from Japan!

17.2 millions USD that even multiple times than US already provide, for a small countries well done Taiwan

Thank you so much, Taiwan!

Truly a friend in deed.

Thank you Taiwan. Just don't pass the money to the LDP or it will never get to Ishikawa.

Why is Taiwan Helping Japan?

Taiwan isnt exactly a rich country - this is a rather moving gesture of good will and support. Spreading the love.

Thank you Taiwan. When China comes for a fight. Japan will be in front of you.

Taiwan is truly our good friend. By the way, will Japan Today collect donations?　If you collect a lot of money, you can leave a good impression on the Japanese people.

Richer than Japan and not too far behind the US according to gdp per capita.

Thank you, Taiwan! A true friend to Japan.

And Japan will be there for Taiwan too whenever needed, like it was with the COVID vaccination donations, and with its ongoing political and economic support.

Why is Taiwan Helping Japan?

Because both countries are democracies and democracies need to stick together.

Why does Japan even need this money? A symbolic gesture but surely Japan has enough money to deal with itself??

The US has given aid to Japan too. Democracies help each other, that's what friends and alliances are for.

One always finds its truest friends in times of need, well done Taiwan and their people.

Starpunk -

Very true. But Taiwanese idolise and love Japan like no other nation on earth does. Japan is the free, peaceful and prosperous democracy they have always aspired to - and they arguably are almost there, if their enemy China would only leave them in peace.

I'm pretty sure the love is reciprocated by Japan.

This story warms the heart, in a purely natural way, something common to humanity. Respect.
