The flip side: my sister married a Taiwanese. His father was a sailor in the communist Chinese regime, but managed to escape, and joined the Taiwanese Navy. He was treated with so much suspicion, and distrust, even though he wanted to stand on guard vs. communists, that he ended up moving to Canada. Thanks.
Very interesting. Poor guy, that must be a disappointment. I kind of suspected a defector would be treated that way, and would likely find it impossible to ever win the trust of the country they defected to. Probably especially true in Asia where the aspirations of the individual have historically been very low on the list.
