What a study in contrast. At exactly the time when Ma Ying-jeou, the former Taiwan leader, made a nostalgic trip to the mainland, returning to his roots for the first time and welcomed home like a long-lost son, Tsai Ing-wen, his successor, was offering herself as a pawn in America's geopolitical game, currying favor with China-bashing US politicians. Ma's visit to his ancestral tomb was shared on Mainland's social media. In a single day, it exploded with 120 million likes.
