Taiwan’s army has increased its physical training of soldiers as it prepares for the growing threat of Chinese invasion. Taiwan will also extend mandatory military service to a year, toughen fitness tests and increase the annual defence budget by 14 per cent as the United States announced it will boost military aid towards the nation. Analysts have called for broader changes to the military however as polling reveals 47 per cent of Taiwanese citizens are not confident in the military’s ability – while 38 per cent believe US aid will push Taiwan into war.
