Or better yet, is there even a Taiwan island???I was watching Discovery with my wife when we saw a documentary about Dubai's next land mass project The World.
You may have already heard of Dubai's Palm Island. The World is the next big project originally intended to have private islands for millionaires but now opening up to hotel and resort developers.
One Irish contingent plans to fashion their island with luscious green grass just like that of Ireland, in the middle of a desert climate!!!
So it got me thinking (upon my wife wondering out loud) about if Taiwan had an island and who would be allowed to purchase it. Maybe this is China's big chance to get their paws on Taiwan, albeit without the military, political, social and economic impact of a real life capture.
The websites devoted to The World Islands don't offer much help with regard to whether a Taiwan island exists. It would be interesting to know. And if so, has it been purchased and by who?
Here is what the island developments will look like in the end...

Well, the big, kind of long, red one on the right side of Asia is really the only one that seemingly resembles and is in the a (somewhat) similar location to Taiwan. That said, it is probably just the border of China (probably Fujian or Guangdong).
Hey! Maybe that is where all the Taiwanese money is going! The economy isn't in a decline, they are just slowly moving assets to Dubai!
