However, Taiwan's education system has serious problems as below:

● Too many fake scholar papers produced. Lousy conducts and bad ethics in Taiwan's academic circle happened again and again, but never be handled seriously, some careless-done fake scholarly papers are either ignorant or extremely audacious, some are even fraud-crimes. Only legal punishments can stop all these, Taiwan government should take hard line now.

● Storm Media Group (風傳媒) , 2-9-2021: Taiwan's high education system now has too full of holes - some colleges and universities became "For-profit business" - those department earning no money will be closed, recruiting more new students is professor's or teacher's KPI (Key Performance Indicator) ... crisis already broke out in private universities and Institute of technology.

● United Daily (聯合報) 1-19-2020: Taiwan got too many universities and colleges, 20 among them may be closed within 8 years.

● Inside Highered (UK), 6-26-2020: https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2020/06/26/will-china-use-its-students-bargaining-chips

The one place where mainland China has implemented an actual ban on student outflows is Taiwan, a self-governed island with a population of 23 million that Beijing considers its territory.

The Ministry of Education of China announced in April that mainland Chinese students would not be allowed to apply to Taiwanese universities, although students who are already enrolled in courses would be able to continue. It said that the decision was taken “in view of the novel coronavirus outbreak and current relationship between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.”

The ban came after Taiwan shut its borders in February to everyone who was not a Taiwan resident, including mainland Chinese. It has been in essence free of COVID-19 since April.

Beijing has been gradually cutting ties with Taiwan and halved the quota of mainland Chinese students allowed there in 2017.

It is relatively low pain for the party-state to ban students from going to Taiwan’s universities. The number of Chinese students affected is not huge, and Taiwan is not a top destination.”

ps: HK, Macau students are allowed to enter Taiwan since around 6-25-2020.
