Excerpt:
Taiwan has launched a new civil defence handbook today, bringing attention to the importance of a strong civilian response in case of a Chinese invasion. The handbook, issued by All-out Defense Mobilisation Agency, features checklists and questions to help residents plans for crises like military invasions or natural disasters on the earthquake-prone island.
Shen Wei-chih, director of the All-Out Defense Mobilisation Agency told Associated Press: “Since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine war, we have felt that much more information needs to be added. Today’s new edition of the National Defense Handbook is about how to enhance and raise public awareness of crises, as well as strengthen the ability for self-defense.”
China claims Taiwan, a self ruled island off its coast, as part of Beijing’s sovereign territory. Tensions between the two sides has soared in recent years as their governments ceased official communications.
