Is Taiwan a prison island?

Question

like in 'escape from New York'? ive heard they dump all the paedos there?

Answer 1

No Taiwan is a great independant nation with many nice people.

Answer 2

The island of Taiwan certainly has prisons, but Green Island, just off the south east coast of Taiwan IS a prison island. They formerly held political prisoners there, and now the gangsters, but I'm not sure where "they dump all the paedos."

Answer 3

Are you confused about Taiwan and Thailand perhaps? Even Thailand is not a prison island as in the movie Escape from New York or is it a dumping site for pedophiles.

Answer 4

Dude! If Taiwan is a prison island, then I'm an escaped fellon! What kind of question is this?

Answer 5

Yeah? Well I heard they did some experiments with prehistoric DNA. Now it's just like Jurassic Park. Maybe it's a good thing. All the paedos will be eaten.

Answer 6

Definitely not.

It's a peaceful, safe, and democratic country that is very progressive.

It's also a reasonably good place to visit with no visa required for U.S. passport holders.

Answer 7

No, it is a thriving nation with a solid economy. The people living there are doing so voluntarily.

Answer 8

Taiwan (Traditional Chinese: 台灣) is an island in East Asia. "Taiwan" is also commonly used to refer to the territories administered by the Republic of China (ROC), a sovereign state which governs the island of Taiwan, Lanyu (Orchid Island) and Green Island in the Pacific off the Taiwan coast, the Pescadores in the Taiwan Strait, and Kinmen and the Matsu Islands off the coast of mainland Fujian.
The main island of Taiwan, also known as Formosa (from the Portuguese Ilha Formosa, meaning "beautiful island"), is located in East Asia off the coast of mainland China, south of mainland Japan but west of the end of Japan's Ryukyu Islands, and west-north-west of the Philippines. It is bound to the east by the Pacific Ocean, to the south by the South China Sea and the Luzon Strait, to the west by the Taiwan Strait and to the north by the East China Sea. The island is 394 kilometers (245 miles) long and 144 kilometers (89 miles) wide and consists of steep mountains covered by tropical and subtropical vegetation.

L'Île de Taïwan, longtemps connue en France sous le nom de Formose (les marins portugais l'appelaient Ilha Formosa et c'est sous ce nom qu'elle a été désignée pendant toute la période antérieure aux années 1960), est bordée à l'est par l'océan Pacifique, au sud par la mer de Chine du Sud, à l'ouest par le détroit de Taiwan et au nord par la mer de Chine de l'Est. L'île fait 394 kilomètres de long sur 144 de large et est constituée de montagnes escarpées couvertes de végétations tropicale et sub-tropicale .
