Digging To China

Taiwan wants to discuss permanent air links with China, but the Chinese govt refuses to even talk about it and offers a mere handful of flight routes as a sop.

But they now propose to build a tunnel (literally) to Taiwan instead! Apparently, they see a physical link as strengthening their claim to the island.

You know, the way Britain now claims France as its own. Go figger.
