Made in Taiwan…
Unknown, the island of Taiwan is an incredible nexus for Chinese culture, where futuristic modernity and ancestral traditions meet.«Made in Taiwan » How many times did you read these three undissociable and trite words ? The famous set phrase is tightly linked with the country just as much as you can find it on the label of electronic equipment . With such a rehash, who could conceive an island different from the little urbain,polluted, industrial and laborious nation we all imagine ? Nonetheless, Taiwan is not of the readymade, boring and tedious kind. In fact, it is the exact opposite. Otherwise, why would the Portuguese seafarers of the XVIth century, have baptised it « Ilha Formosan », the Portuguese for « The Beautiful Island » ?
