Description

Guest: Enoch Wu, founder of Forward Alliance, a Taiwanese NGO focusing on national security. Last month Toronto Star journalist Joanna Chiu, a reporter covering national and international news, visited Taiwan, a self-ruling democracy at the centre of growing global tensions. China views Taiwan as a breakaway province that must be reunified, by force if necessary. It’s a growing source of conflict that some observers worry could tip into full blown war. Today, Chiu brings us a special conversation with Enoch Wu, the founder of Forward Alliance, on the biggest challenges facing Taiwan. Enoch’s interview is part of a larger multimedia package highlighting Taiwanese voices. You can read and watch the entirety of Chiu’s series, “View from Taiwan,” on thestar.com. Audio source: NBC This episode was produced by Joanna Chiu, Alexis Green and Paulo Marques.
