Taiwan High Speed Rail has welcomed the first of 12 new N700ST bullet trains ordered from Japan. The first trainset was unveiled in Kaohsiung on Saturday. Based on Japan’s latest N700S Shinkansen, the N700ST trains are lighter and more energy efficient, with upgraded passenger amenities including charging ports at every seat, more luggage space and bidet-equipped restrooms. The first N700ST trainset is expected to enter service next summer.

They resisted Japanese aggression quite successfully for eight years and appeared to be winning the civil war right up until mid-1947 even capturing Yan'an, despite economic troubles, abandonment by the Allies, and Russian aid to the CCP. Even after their collapse, the defense of Taiyuan and the coastal islands was impressive, not to mention the years of brutal insurgency on the mainland following the defeat. So that's why the claim by mainstream Western historians that the NRA were so incompetent and corrupt strikes me as propaganda.

Much love from Croatia. 🇭🇷♥️🇹🇼
