According to a Taiwan media report on August 23, there have been discussions on the "comparison of strength between the Taiwan military and the Afghan government" on Taiwan's Internet recently. In this regard, a retired US military non-commissioned officer said that he was not very optimistic about the strength of the Taiwan military.

Taiwan's “TVBS News Network” previously stated that the Taliban returned to Afghanistan 20 years later and repelled the Afghan government forces that had been trained and supported by the US military for many years. Taiwan's defense department slapped its chest to ensure that the strength of Taiwan's military surpassed the Afghan government forces and that it had sufficient combat capability in the face of war. However, Allen Lin, a retired U.S. noncommissioned officer, is not so "optimistic."

Allen Lin believes that from the civilians on the island to the Taiwan authorities and even the Taiwan military, there is an argument of "Taiwan has an accident and the US military rescues", and the degree of dependence on the US military is no less than that of Afghanistan. From the military standpoint alone, the training of the Taiwan military is still at the level of the 1970s. Using cost-saving methods and outdated technology to train troops, not only cannot achieve "civilized transfer", and the opponent is not the Taliban. Hierarchical guerrillas are regular troops with both equipment and training. Once a conflict occurs, it will be more tragic.
