How corrupt is Taiwan? Any links? I know I can do my own research, but I haven't really seen much about corruption there.
I do find it curious that China isn't attacking Taiwan right now ... it'd make the most sense if the goal was conquest seeing that the US media has everyone focused on Ukraine (a country they'll more than likely forget about in six months).
This whole Ukraine operation seems more like a police action than it does a military invasion ... Russians really haven't been known for surgical strikes and being concerned with citizens ... they're handling this with kid gloves. I get that the eastern part of the country is more aligned with Russia vs the West ... but Russia is certainly handling this differently compared to things like Afghanistan and Chechnya.
Could be, but the major triad organizations are mostly based in Hong Kong or mainland China. They definitely have influence in Taiwan, but doesn't every country have some sort of organized crime?

I think the semiconductor and device (phone/tablet/laptop) industry is tied to the Triads.
I think the shipping industry is Triad and CCP (check out Mitch McConnell's obviously a spy wife).

Yes.
