Shinobi
Well-known
So the bragging rights part comes from the third picture down in the article. The young man in the middle just right of the young lady is my son. He is a GT alumni and was contacted by GT to go to Taipei because of his influence with a lot of tech stuff, schools, businesses and new development in tech to go to Taipei and represent his old alma matter. Not to shabby for an old redneck swamp trekker. Along side this there is a satellite in space with his name in it that he was instrumental in its design as well as he sits on the board of directors for three high tech start ups. As far as he has gotten at the young age 35 his closest friend from GT is presently working at Lockheed Skunkworks. I have no idea what things he is working on because he can't talk about it but boy would I love to know.
Anyway what struck me about this little venture to Taipei and the reason for it is that it seems as best as I can tell. Taiwan is moving forward somewhat cautiously in spite of having to deal with a possible take over attempt by China. It seems that Taiwan is looking to upgrade a good amount of the tech infrastructure for the purposes of modernization. This would be great for China if it happens and they wait to move in after all the work is done but, it also may pose problems for them if this also produces defensive measures. I will not likely find out much till this coming weekend when we do our monthly Skype video call. Hopefully I can get more info about where things are and where they are headed with more clarity.
I find it interest this happened at this time with the up tick in Russia and China encroaching into waters and air space of not only Taiwan but also Japan and now South Korea. Not sure how much is muscle flexing and how much is intelligence gathering. Seems to be a lot of it going on more regularly than in past times which would lead me to believe there is more intelligence gathering at this time. I am praying that a shooting war is not gonna come anytime soon.
