‘ROC’ name invites China invasionBy Lai Fu-shun 賴福順Taiwan today cannot use its true national name. Instead, as a nation, Taiwan is referred to as the Republic of China (ROC). If US military forces were stationed in Taiwan, China would certainly invade. The most effective way to confront China is to have a large number of US troops stationed in Taiwan. The name “ROC” encourages China to invade while blocking US troops at the door.
