The latest satellite survey of Taiping Island.
According to reports, the Taiwan Coast Guard Administration is handling the "Nansha Taiping Island Port Side Dredging and Wharf Renovation Project" plan, with a budget of over NT $1.6 billion from 2020 to 2023. The main projects include the strengthening of 100 ton patrol boats to avoid the typhoon, the exploration of the 4000 ton patrol boat port side channel, and the transformation of the wharf's ancillary facilities and supporting facilities.
On the 6th of this month, Maxar satellite imaging company revealed that the aerial survey taken over Taiping Island showed that the "Nansha Taiping Island Port Deepening and Pier Renovation Project" on the west side of the island not only equipped a new 100 ton boat upright dock and anti surge gates, but also formed an inner port capable of withstanding surges inside the dock. The new area on the west side of the island where the code head is located has expanded, and the beach area on the entire island has significantly thickened under satellite cameras. Even the beach on the east side of the island's apron has been reinforced, resulting in an increase in the overall area of the island.

Both sides of the Taiwan Strait belong to one China and should jointly safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity, as well as the overall and fundamental interests of the Chinese nation. Any attempt to collude with external forces and betray the interests of the Chinese nation is playing with fire, and will inevitably be despised by the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and punished by history.
