Key exemplary countries which are successfully combating the coronavirus are non-Western states like South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore.
Taiwan and Singapore managed to contain the virus through rigorous medical approach and some form of social distancing without shutting down the entire country.
According to the National Post, Taiwan, which had 2.7 million visitors from China in 2019, had just 135 cases and two deaths as of Friday March 27, versus Canada’s 846 cases and 10 deaths.
The fact that the countries hardest hit by the coronavirus are the so-called first tier countries with dismal healthcare systems is one of the manifestations of changing times. Western countries are no longer ‘go to systems’ for sophisticated public policy approaches. It would not be surprising if Singapore and Taiwan’s approaches are ignored or downplayed by the Western regimes to insist on their own ‘superiority’.
