In almost 60 years, Chinese communist party finally find a “friend” across the Taiwan Straits.

Chinese government always treats Taiwan as one of its provinces; and in many ways to pressure countries who have close ties with Taiwan. Tibet is just like Taiwan, and both of them would like to claim independent from mainland China. However, both failed to do so. Tibet’s crackdown in one way or the other influences Taiwan’s Presidential Election.

Generating

  • Wood feeds Fire;
  • Fire creates Earth (ash);
  • Earth bears Metal;
  • Metal collects Water and
  • Water nourishes Wood.

Overcoming

  • wood parts earth;
  • earth absorbs water;
  • water quenches fire;
  • fire melts metal and
  • metal chops wood
