政客的話

本來就是過耳風

不能相信

何況還牽扯到自身的國家民族私利?

If Japanese are smart ...
A very good article.

The island is a catalyst for international incidents.

I can imagine one day when China/Taiwan's fishermen died/drowned because being chased by Japanese patrol ships. which resulted in a major demonstration in Taiwan and China.

If this happens, what is Ma's government going to do?
Say a few words with no actions ("By the book," as Ma said all the time, but which book?),
or wait for China to take an action?  If Ma's government can't calm down the situation,
his government/party will be in jeopardy.
Who would want a government that can't protect her people?
Maybe Ma's government should take a proactive approach by negotiating with Japan now before another incident occurs.

Also, if Japanese are smart, they should have a 2-way talk with Taiwan to at least allow Taiwan's fishermen to fish there, and co-develop the area with Taiwan.
Otherwise, when China gets involved, it will be all or nothing.
It is very obvious, from China's history, that no leaders should/dare to give away an inch of land.
Remember, China' s power/influence is growing day by day, even U.S. can't do anything about it.
I also believe that  it is naive for Japan to expect U.S. to fight against China for this island.
It does not fit U.S.'s interest. Most U. S. people don't even know about this "deserted island."
 
Maybe U.S. should persuade Japan to negotiate with Taiwan, too.

請美國中途島、阿留申群島、以及太平洋當中其他的無人島都送給台灣吧！
