An 8-page article providing an overview of what Taiwan's current national security is like as far as its relationship with China is concerned. Despite improved relations between the two states, this article suggests that Taiwan should not let its guard down and to always consider the likelihood of being a significant threat to China, and to be prepared in facing China's rising military capability. This article also includes the South China Sea territorial disputes in which Taiwan claims Taiping Island to be part of its territory.
