Lots of exciting stuff going on in the world of sports right now, so I don’t wanna distract the board too much.

The Taiwanese presidential election is coming up tomorrow, 13 January (12th stateside) and can could have some potential major ramifications in this part of the world.

It’s a tight race right now with current VP with a slight lead over the pro Chinese challenger/Mayor of New Taipei City.

Depending on the results of the election there could be a (probably will be) potential show of force from China in the region.

Here are some articles to get yourself spun up.
