<br/><br/> "Explains how and why the Philippine Chinese became the most ardent overseas Chinese supporters of the Kuomintang during the Cold War. This book argues for a networked and diasporic understanding of the KMT-ROC party-state. Ties between the Philippine Chinese, the ROC, and the Philippines were constitutive of an intra-Asian anticommunist ecumene: a Cold War waged not by the United States and not only by states but by Asian countries and peoples working with each other"-
