About
I’m a half-Chinese (or Taiwanese, depending on who you talk to), half-Australian web designer who grew up in Miami, Flawrida. I like to wax Degrassi about things that relate to being a half-breed who belongs nowhere and everywhere. Welcome to my ego.
Hi there, your article “Things I Hate About Taiwan #1: Marble-tiled Sidewalks” has been linked, translated, posted and discussed at the website: mobile01.com; under the title “不喜歡台灣的理由”.
I am the author/translator of the said article. My whole purpose is to provide retrospect of the commentators and their opinions of Taiwan to the local Taiwanese, and specifically those that cannot read English.
As a result, the more inflammatory comments in general (translated to the best of my ability) has been discussed with some animosity but actually approved by a large portion of the people who replied, at mobile01.com.
I do not support either side or any specific opinion. If you wish to not have this topic discussed further, I can close the thread.
Let me know your thoughts.

Hi David,
Thanks for letting me know. Actually, I don’t mind the discussion, it’s important for people to vent, but it felt like the comments were gradually getting worse and worse without any real sort of progress or understanding happening.
I don’t mind if you leave the Mobile01.com article up, in fact I think it’s great you’re doing that kind of service. A lot of these types of conflicts occur because people can’t communicate with each other clearly. I will also add your comment to the end of the blog post.

Hey Mike, thanks for the reply. I think people will learn lots about each other this way.
Really liking your blog btw.
