I am from Taiwan! I am honestly surprised by how many people are willing to watch a documentary about Taiwan. We have great medical and computational technologies but all the anonymous workings behind the scene without really having many world recognising brands leads to our lack of confidence, or at least in my opinion, that's the general feeling of Taiwanese people towards our country... THANK YOU BBC FOR MAKING THE WORLD SEE WHAT TAIWAN IS LIKE
I would definetely recommend anyone to visit. We have great food, ranging from street food to fancy traditional restaurants. We also have one of the best and cleanest Metro(tube)system, it's still the best in my opinion after having visited many big cities. And beautiful mountains, lakes, and indigenous cultures!!

Hello from Germany..I love Taiwan, have visited 3 times and can hardly wait to go back. The island is so beautiful, the infrastructure is awesome, the food is great and the people are the friendliest and most hospitable I have ever met.

There"s a reason why I moved to Taipei almost 11yrs ago. It was for technology, the people and of course the food!

Thank you to all foreign friends who like Taiwan. Although Taiwan is a small country, it has everything. We are not perfect but we have a passionate heart. Welcome friends from all over the world to come to Taiwan to enjoy this colorful tropical island!!

I wish my country re-recognize Taiwan.

Meanwhile Taiwan is still banned from attending WHO and WHA due to China.

Taiwan is one of the most underrated countries

[Miyukified]

ACER, ASUS, TREND MICRO, TRANSCEND and MSI etc are all major global brands originated from TAIWAN. And most importantly, TSMC is like the semiconductor giant that even Intel or Samsung cannot ignore because it is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with. And if you’ve never known this you PROBABLY just need to enhance your tech savvy.

Thanks BBC for a great piece. American here, and I got to briefly visit Taipei in December of 2019. I was very impressed by how modern and democratic the city and island are, while still retaining a strong sense of heritage and history. I'm looking forward to going back once they're ready to welcome foreigners again. Until then, I will keep telling all my family and friends that it's an incredible country to visit!

Taiwan's medical system is light years ahead of the United States.

Taiwan is not a part of China !
It's a country.

We love Taiwan! Agree? Jake from UK 🇬🇧

[dmethil]

I love Taiwan but not the evil empire nearby

[MandarinWithMissLin]

I'm Taiwanese. It's so true hopefully people can see this NEW side of Taiwan.
Thanks for the BBC Team for making this video. I'd like to also include
the other feature about Taiwan -- It's a country of Humanity, Freedom and Love!
