Alright folks, time to get into the Taiwan flag business ๐Ÿ“ˆ . I have a feeling the market is about to grow, anyone invested in Ukraine flags still is a fool! ๐Ÿ“‰

My advice is to put in an order for about 100,000 flame resistant Taiwanese flags, and about 10 million Taiwanese flags that burn real good.

Just make sure you sell before the US opens its TSMC plant and drops Taiwan like a hot rock.

I still say that Taiwan has two uses that struggle to coexist, manufacturing and military. Once the manufacturing one becomes defunct, what is left is its military use.
