Taiwan's new president, Ma, says he will reapply for a 12th time for a seat on the World Health Organization in what could be his final slap at China. Beijing insists Taiwan is a province of China and, as such, is ineligible for inclusion either in the United Nations General Assembly or the World Health Organization. WHO voted 148-17 in Geneva in May 2007 to bar Taiwan despite a particularly vigorous campaign by the island. China and its scores of diplomatic allies blocked the bid. Taiwan must apply by April 19 to be considered, a Taiwan foreign ministry spokeswoman said.
Will Taiwan be granted a seat in WHO in 2008?
