FALSE ARMENIAN MAPS CLAIMING TO NK AND NAKHCHIVAN ON SALE IN TAIWAN AND HK

Azeri Press Agency, Azerbaijan

"False maps, globes and school textbooks showing Azerbaijani
regions-Nakhchivan and Karabakh- as Armenian territories are on sale
in East and Southeast Asia," Akbar Huseynli, an Azerbaijani living
in Hong-Kong, told APA.

He said that these school facilities are sold in Hong-Kong, Shankhay
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 here- 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".
