Activists in Germany supporting Palestine say police are singling them out with harsh and sometimes violent tactics not routinely applied to others.
India will soon get the results of the 2024 vote -@Sriparnapathak skillfully broke down some of the key issues and gave clarity to some of the more complicated nuances of these elections including impact on foreign policy and what it means for Taiwan
In this fantastic episode on India’s historic elections, I speak to @divya_go on the implications of the outcomes for Indian foreign policy, and for India-Taiwan relations in particular.

As we are uncovering mass graves of Palestinians killed by Israel, in the US the discussion is about whether genocide supporters feel “safe” to express their support for genocide.

🚨 Early morning quakes strike #Hualien again! The Hotel Fouquet (#富凱大飯店), already empty and awaiting demolition, tilts further. Thankfully, no one is trapped. Authorities have cordoned off the area for public safety. 📢 🚧 #TaiwanEarthquake
If this is accurate - #Taiwan get ready for a rocky year! #TaiwanEarthquake

It's a bad time to be a dictator. The rise of #AI poses threats and opportunities for various people, but one thing's for sure: it can't be intimidated or terrorized.

Taiwan should welcome migrant workers from India or anywhere else and treat them with dignity. Instead we are showing our racism, which an immigrant friend told me is “the worst” in East Asia. We have external threats and internal problems we should deal with both. They are connected.

The piano at St Pancras was released — maybe on bail 😜 — on Jan 24, reportedly after Elton John’s team learned of what happened. A guy from Hong Kong was seen playing “Do you hear the people sing?” and “Glory to Hong Kong” — which is banned in Hong Kong cuz it constitutes a huge threat to the fragile security of the city and also China — to show his support for Brendan and free speech and, at the same time, give CCP the finger.

Taiwan's first cohort of conscripts since mandatory military service was increased to one year are reporting for duty. @JaimeOcon1 spoke to @DavidMSacks1 and @EricGomezAsia to learn how this can make a difference.

In honor of Jon Stewart's impending return to the Daily Show, some of his best hits on Palestine:
Well that's recognition! I hope FoxConn understands its responsibility in upholding the rights of its workers and treating them with dignity and respect
Fantastic and huge. Well played @narendramodi and well done. 👏
An important signal that #Taiwan is a key relationship! Must remember this when it seems we are not making enough public noise about elections or other events!
Why is this allowed to happen? There is nowhere safe for children to go in Gaza aje.io/l9e1fh via @AJEnglish
