Why is Taiwan occupying Taiping Island and Zhongzhou Reef in the South China Sea not controversial?
But if that's the case, why isn't there more international outrage about Taiwan's presence on those islands?
There are a few reasons why Taiwan's presence on the islands is not as controversial as it might seem. First, Taiwan has occupied the islands for a long time, and it is seen by some as a legitimate stakeholder in the area. Additionally, China's territorial claims in the South China Sea have overshadowed the issue of Taiwan's presence on the islands. Finally, some countries may simply not want to risk upsetting Taiwan or China by taking a strong stance on the issue.
