What should Taiwan do if China attacks the Philippines?
-
I've been noticing that the South China Sea dispute is getting serious, and all sides are unwilling to back down. The PRC especially seems ready to go to war. I now actually strongly support the ROC...but the ROC claims the islands as well. Now, I have studied China and Taiwan's claims, and they do indeed seem to be pretty legitimate. But the Philippines are barely industrialized, if at all, and the U.S., despite alliance, is not very likely to intervene or directly take sides. Personally, I know many Filipinos in real life, and they really are friendly people, and for a huge nation like China to go to war with them makes me deeply uncomfortable... Taiwanese, should your nation do anything if open war breaks out? If so, what?

Answer:
Taiwan should offer to host a Taipei Peace Conference, a la Geneva Switzerland. It's a mess down there in the West Philippine/East Vietnam/South China/North Malaysia SEA. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fe/Baselines_of_Eastern_Asia_English.png/799px-Baselines_of_Eastern_Asia_English.png Somebody needs to get all the heads together and straighten it out... soon! Maybe China should ask Japan about what happens when you try to do this: http://www.google.com.tw/imgres?imgurl=http://www.mrdickey.net/uploads/5/0/5/6/5056587/color_map_of_japanese_expansion_in_wwii.gif&imgrefurl=http://www.mrdickey.net/us-history-2012-3rd-quarter-assignments.html&h=441&w=530&sz=26&tbnid=NO1j-CuvJ6xaFM:&tbnh=90&tbnw=108&prev=/search%3Fq%3DJapanese%2Bexpansion%2Bin%2BWW2,%2Bterritory,%2Bmap%26tbm%3Disch%26tbo%3Du&zoom=1&q=Japanese+expansion+in+WW2,+territory,+map&docid=WouQXKX9lsr44M&sa=X&ei=kKqsT_TjFcTImAX0rpmaBA&ved=0CI4BEPUBMAw&dur=2937

well personally i think the answer to this question depends on china-taiwan relations or PRC-ROC relations(to be more correct and less separatist...) remember mainland china and taiwan both belong to CHINA, but this CHINA is still disputed, the mainlanders say its the PRC while the people(pro-KMT to be exact) on taiwan say its the ROC. if either mainland china or taiwan gets control over Huangyan island(and as long as CCP and KMT won't start a war against each other), the island will still be part of the whole CHINA right? I think as long as the Huangyan island ACTUALLY belongs to china, and PRC and ROC won't get aggressive with each other, and they would share the island after its back in chinese control, then taiwan(ROC) should give help to the mainland(PRC) because after all, we are all chinese and it would be a battle not for the PRC but all of CHINA! but mainland is an authoritarian state therefore the people there won't get a say at whether going to war or not(however most people in the PRC want to get huangyan island back so in this case the CCP and the people would actually be on the same side). However the ROC is now a democracy and about 40 something percent of the people voted for the DPP this year so I'm not sure whether the ROC as a whole would want war or not :/ so yeah as i said in the 3rd paragraph before, as long as blah blah blah(can't be bothered to repeat the whole paragraph...) then the ROC should fight for the whole CHINA!!
