PLA Fighter Aircrafts Make 8 Incursions into Taiwan's ADIZ, the 32nd Time Since Mid-September According to Taiwan Ministry of National Defense
PLA aircraft keep entering Taiwan's airspace in recent months, with eight PLA second military aircraft re-entering Taiwan's Southwest Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ) today (2 November). It was the third-largest operation since mid-September. Taiwanese Authorities used radio to drive the planes away.
According to Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense, the PLA dispatched eight sorties to Taiwan Southwest ADIZ near the Dongsha Islands (also known as Pratas Islands) in the South China Sea, flying close to the west of the eastern front, on 2 November (today). The operation consisted of five aircraft types including one Y-8 anti-submarine aircraft, one Y-8 tactical reconnaissance aircraft, two Su-30 jets, two J-16 fighters, and two J-10 jets. The Taiwan air force used radio to drive the planes away and used air defence missile systems to track their movement. This operation of PLA is the 32nd times since 16 September and the third-largest.
According to the record of the FB page "SouthwestAirspaceofTW", PLA military aircraft started entering Taiwan's airspace in the early hours of this morning, flying at altitudes of 3,500 to 7,000 meters, with the Y-8 anti-submarine aircraft reaching 3,500 meters at one point. From 5:59 a.m., the Taiwan fighter issued radio warnings to the PLA aircraft for seven times, and ask them to "Turn around and leave immediately". In October, Chinese military aircraft flew into Taiwan's airspace for at least 25 days, five times more than in July, and the Taiwan air force made more than 84 warning broadcasts to banish Chinese military aircraft in October.

The U.S. Commerce Department informed some firms that a license is needed before supplying goods and services to SMIC which equipment could be used for military purpose. SMIC replies heavily on U.S. suppliers.

Global Affairs objected to Canadian military decision to cancel training with People's Liberation Army
Classified Canadian government documents released to media outlets, including The Globe and Mail, reveal that the department of Global Affairs disagreed with the Canadian military to cancel the winter military exercises with the People's Liberation Army (PLA) of China in 2019.
In a memo to Ian Shugart, then deputy foreign minister, it was said that the "unilateral decisions" by the military to cancel previously agreed co-operation with the PLA "risk being interpreted by China or others in an unintended (and unhelpful) way" and "could also damage Canada's long-term defence and security relationship with China."
The diplomats feared that any reductions in military ties between the PLA and the Canadian army may be viewed as a "retaliatory move" concerning the cases of Meng Wanzhou and the two Canadians, Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, detained by China.
The revelations triggered a public outcry among Canadians. Critics said the disagreement indicates that Canada's China policy has been contradictory and incoherent. "It is more urgent than ever, in the context of an increasingly belligerent and assertive China, to present a united political front," said Charles Burton, a China expert. "This is really about the defence of our sovereignty and security on matters over which there is consensus across the political spectrum in Canada."

#Huawei #MengWanZhou Caught Wearing 'Made in Taiwan' Mask
//Meng Wanzhou, who is the daughter of Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei, appeared in a Canadian court on Dec 21, 2020.
Most notable to Taiwanese observers was the fact that she was wearing a purple surgical face mask with the words "Made in Taiwan" in plain sight on the lower righthand corner of the face covering.
The fact that she was wearing a mask manufactured in Taiwan was extraordinary given that Meng is at the eye of the storm for an intense geopolitical rivalry between China and the U.S. and its ally — Taiwan. Meng's company, which is a national champion for China and has numerous ties to the Chinese Communist Party (#CCP) and People's Liberation Army (#PLA), has become a major target of sanctions and litigation by the Trump administration amid the trade war between the U.S. and China.//

60 Chinese and Hong Kong Enterprises Including SMIC and DJI Added to US Department of Commerce Entity List
US Department of Commerce added 60 Chinese and Hong Kong companies, including chipmaker SMIC and drone manufacturer DJI, to its Entity List on 18 December for their ties to the Chinese military.
The US Department of Commerce has added 77 companies to the Entity List recently, including 59 Chinese companies and one Hong Kong company. The Department of Commerce stated that these companies have been involved in activities contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States, include enabling China human right abuse, supporting the militarization and unlawful maritime claims in the South China Sea, acquiring U.S.-origin items in support of the People’s Liberation Army’s programs, and engaging in the theft of U.S. trade secrets.
Among these entities, SMIC has been accused of being involved in China's military-civilian fusion (MCF) program, with evidences of activities tied to the Chinese military industrial complex. The Secretary of Commerce Department Wilbur Ross stated that it is making sure that China is not able to leverage U.S. technologies, through SMIC, to support its military modernization, and emphasized that it is a necessary measure.
