S3-E42 - Taiwan in 1958

1958. Just 66 years ago, yet Taiwan back then was like a
completely different country. There was no television, but there
were Russian-language radio broadcasts to Siberia. Eryk and John
share nuggets from a 1959 ROC booklet, “101 Questions about
Taiwan,” which proves to be both a humorous and fascinating time
capsule of facts and stats. Enjoy this journey back to the year
1958, when sugar dominated exports, and Taiwan manufactured 93
jeeps!
