Why did customers of the Chinese Mainland not boycott goods from Japan in the ongoing Sino-Japanese dispute this time? Simply because there are not many Jap goods still dominating the Chinese market anymore.

But in Taiwan, the government and people do otherwise. Mr. Lie publicly promoted Jap cuisine in the media, and there are more and more TV commercials being broadcast in Japanese, not in Mandarin or Fujianese. Even English has not gained such a privilege. What the hell!
