Resumen
LOPES, Helena Ferreira Santos. Successes and doubts: the role of medical aid in Taiwan and São Tomé and Príncipe bilateral relations. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2013, n.37, pp.99-113. ISSN 1645-9199.
São Tomé and Príncipe is the only Portuguese speaking country where the Republic of China (Taiwan) is recognised diplomatically. This is a countercurrent case when compared to other countries in Africa, given the growing influence of the People’s Republic of China in that continent. The present article focuses on one field of Taiwan’s development aid to São Tomé e Príncipe as a crucial factor in the bilateral diplomatic relations. In this context, the medical assistance will be focused in detail through the analysis of the cases of the Taiwanese Medical Mission in São Tomé and the Malaria Eradication Project.
Palabras clave : Taiwan; São Tomé and Príncipe; medical aid; Afro-Asian relations.
