air, sea? What are you kind of looking at right now as something that's most concerning to you? And just generally, how do you think they're preparing?

I-Chung LaiGUEST
I think generally that in Taiwan, we do see that the PLA, for they to launch the amphibious operation against Taiwan or the big scale military operation against Taiwan, they not yet have the capabilities.

I-Chung LaiGUEST
We do see that in order to really get into Taiwan, you have the same people here.

I-Chung LaiGUEST
So the airlift capability, the sea lift capability, how many big transport ships that are preparing also for the amphibious operation, they just do not have enough equipment for those lifts.

I-Chung LaiGUEST
So basically, we also documented how many the lift capability vehicles or the aircraft transport and aircraft they are able to deploy to use.

I-Chung LaiGUEST
So those are the numbers that we're looking at the military operation in that regard.
