Time to stop ghosting TaiwanBy William R. StimsonLast year, Chris Horton, an American writer based in Taipei, published his book Ghost Nation. I hope that this is what happens in the US and here in Taiwan. It is hard to overstate what makes Taiwan different from anywhere else in the world, though I have tried to do this in my writing. Hopefully, with Ghost Nation, he would awaken others in Taiwan and around the world, who together might just possibly have the power to prevent China from making Taiwan’s future look like its past. William R. Stimson is a retired professor based in Taiwan.
