The Four Asian Tigers are the developed East Asian economies of Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan. Between the early 1950s and 1990s, they underwent rapid industrialization and maintained exceptionally high growth rates of more than 7 percent a year.

China considers the Four Asian Tigers it’s greatest worries and essential threats to its own Business Models and its own People Managementations.

But China’s Greatest Dear is always Civil Unrest leading into Civil War within its own Borders. Just trying to keep over a billion people fed and happy is a tremendous challenge. Their COVID-19 Lockdowns almost took China into the brink of serious Civil Unrest. So, Xi Jinping relented in an unusual admission that the Government had gone too far. But one Asian Tiger is right in the gun-sights of China. But why?

The issue of Taiwan’s status has historical and political roots dating back to the Chinese Civil War in the 1940s. The Communist Party of China emerged victorious in the civil war and established the People’s Republic of China (PRC) on the mainland, while the Nationalist Party (also known as Kuomintang or KMT) fled to Taiwan and established the Republic of China (ROC). Since then, both sides have claimed to be the legitimate government of China.

China’s position on reunification with Taiwan is that it considers Taiwan to be a part of its territory and that it will eventually be reunified with the mainland, either peacefully or through force, if necessary. The Chinese government sees the separation of Taiwan as an unfinished business of the Chinese Civil War and a matter of national sovereignty, territorial integrity, and reunification of the Chinese people.

Moreover, China’s economic, strategic, and political interests in the Asia-Pacific region have increased in recent years, leading to a more assertivestance from China towards Taiwan. The reasons behind China’s desire to reunify with Taiwan are complex and multifaceted, but some of the main factors include:

1) Historical and cultural ties: Taiwan was once known as Formosa, a Dutch and Spanish colony that was later occupied by China’s Qing Dynasty in the 17th century. When the Nationalist Party fled to Taiwan after losing the Chinese Civil War in 1949, they maintained that they were the rightful government of all of China, including Taiwan. China’s Communist Party also claims Taiwan as part of China, and so for many in China, reunification has become a matter of national pride and a way of restoring historical justice.

2) Economic and strategic interests: Taiwan is a significant economic powerhouse in the Asia-Pacific region, with a highly developed technology sector, as well as a strategic location that plays a critical role in regional trade and security. China sees Taiwan as an essential part of its long-term economic and strategic plans, and therefore views the reunification of Taiwan with China as a crucial objective. Additionally, there is a strong sense of nationalistic pride and historical importance attributed to Taiwan by the Chinese government, as it was once a part of China before separating in 1949 during the Chinese civil war. From a political perspective, reunification with Taiwan would enhance the legitimacy of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) hold on power, and prevent any possibility of western countries obtaining a foothold in the region.

Western Countries obtaining a foothold in the region such as Taiwan is China’s Greatest Fears. But in actuality, during COVID-19 Lockdowns, the Chinese People realized how Controlling their Government is over them similar to Russia and Ukraine. Hong Kong has already found out. Haven’t they? And for
