The Kenya Fraud Controversy: A Senior Lawyer's Words Break Through Taiwan Netizens' Blind Spot of 'Populism Above All'

“Do you believe if a Syrian carrying out a terrorist attack in Paris were arrested in Belgium, would France request extradition for trial?”

Of course they would! (And you’d even believe they should!)

Would we say France has annexation ambitions toward Syria?

Would we say Syria lacks its own Huang Kuo-chang—someone people treat as a god warrior for claiming he’s read legal codes?

But even for one of these code-reading “god warriors” like Huang, he hasn’t clearly explained whether Kenya law mandates repatriating foreign nationals to their departure location before entering the country, or to their national home?

This is basic legal knowledge in many countries. Yet Taiwan’s countless netizens would shamelessly argue “Taiwan people matter most” overrides international precedent?

Really, whether it’s international law regarding extradition or repatriation issues, any time it involves the Taiwan Strait, Taiwanese netizens positively react.
