[Ask ] What's the image of Taiwan?

[fruitboy (無語)]

When you hear the name of Taiwan, what the first image or picture occurs
into you mind?
or, what would feature Taiwan if you want to introduce Taiwan to your
foreign friends?

: : Taiwan is my home country. It is the best for me.

: : I feel being a part of them, just like everybody else.
: : When I live in Taiwan, I'm no longer alone.

If you have lived abroad for a few years, you might know what I mean by simply
love this small island. It's about camparing. Yes, the natural or living
environment of foreign countries may be much better, but they are just "foreign
countries". Do you know what I mean? Well, maybe it's just me, but I don't feel
like a part of their society. On the other hand, in Taiwan, I'm just like
everyone else. I'm not talking about any political issue here because I too
find it very annoying... Of course you don't have to, or should agree with me,
for these are just my personal opinions. But I really think that some features
in Taiwan are improving. The street dogs are reduced, the recycling of garbage
is getting organized, the MRT is really high quality compared to other countries.
I guess sometimes, we need to look at the bright side of things.^^
