Meanwhile, Taiwan’s government is contemplating the regulation of the Chinese social media application Xiaohongshu, also known as Rednote, due to concerns that it could be utilized by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for “united front” initiatives, as reported by the Mainland Affairs Council (MAC), according to the Taipei Times.
During a meeting of the legislature’s Internal Administration Committee, MAC Minister Chiu Chui-cheng expressed these views while the committee was set to review proposed changes to the Act Governing Relations Between the People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area and the Act Governing Relations with Hong Kong and Macau, as stated by the Taipei Times.
Chiu noted that this is the first instance of a Chinese expert linking the widely used application to unification efforts, adding that the council suspects the CCP may be leveraging the app to conduct its “united front” strategy. (ANI)
