“Once the PLA warplanes cross the centre line, it only takes 200 seconds to reach the nearest point on our coastline. And if our forces aren’t decisive enough to intercept the intruders and stop them from reaching our territorial waters 12 nautical miles from the coast, it would only take another 80 seconds for the PLA warplanes to fly to Taipei. Repeatedly breaching the median line will also eventually make people feel a bit numb to this act and perhaps less concerned about an imminent war – as evidenced by the unfazed stock and financial markets in Taiwan.”
