Director-General Lin’s op-ed was published in the American Southeast’s largest media outlet, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, underscoring how Cross-Strait tensions intersect with local economic stability, supply chains, and livelihoods across the region.
The article makes clear that China’s military pressure on Taiwan is not an abstract geopolitical issue. Any disruption in the Taiwan Strait—one of the world’s most critical shipping lanes and the heart of the global semiconductor supply—would ripple through manufacturing, trade costs, inflation, and jobs in Georgia and the broader Southeast.
Concluding with a call to action, the op-ed urges support for peace, freedom of navigation, and opposition to any attempt to change the status quo by force. It also highlights Taiwan’s commitment to dialogue and partnership, and the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Atlanta’s role as a local platform for deepening cooperation and shared prosperity.
