FALSE ARMENIAN MAPS CLAIMING TO KARABAKH AND NAKHCHIVAN ON SALE IN CHINA’S TAIWAN AND HONG KONG
Today, Azerbaijan
Sept 9 2006
"False maps, globes and school textbooks showing Azerbaijani regions
-Nakhchivan and Karabakh- as Armenian territories are on sale in East
and Southeast Asia," said Akbar Huseynli, an Azerbaijani living in
Hong Kong.
He told APA that these school facilities are sold in Hong-Kong,
Shanghai and Taiwan.
"African, European, Arabian nations and even Armenians have a number
of economic and cultural societies in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Most of
people living here are unaware of Azerbaijanis and Azerbaijan."
He said that articles on Azerbaijani oil have recently spread in
media but Southeast Asia is not well known here.
"The reason may be that Taiwan has no political-economic ties
with Azerbaijan. It is a pity that Azerbaijan plays no part in the
activities of the most competitive trade center."
He regretted that there is no Azerbaijani Diaspora in Southeast Asia
while there are about 17 diasporas in Belgium and the Netherlands. A
lot of Azerbaijani businessmen are active in China but they have not
gathered together to form a Diaspora.
