India support Taiwan...

1. Taiwan’s participation in the World Health Organisation (WHO) was opposed by China.

2. Taiwan’s status had limited its ability to share information about COVID-19 and its arrangement with the WHO was not satisfactory.

Taiwan’s status

1. Taiwan is not a member of the WHO.

2. China has opposed its inclusion in the World Health Assembly (WHA), the organization’s decision-making body, citing the ‘One China principle’.

3. But, Taiwan participated in the WHA as an observer from 2009 to 2016.

India’s stand

1. India is among the 179 of the 193 member states of the UN that do not maintain any diplomatic ties with Taiwan.

2. The U.S. has been pushing for Taiwan’s inclusion in the WHA, but it requires a simple majority from member states.

3. India will have to decide on this as it takes over as chairperson of the executive board.

4. The government is yet to make a final decision on whether to support the U.S. move to include Taiwan or to accept China’s objections to it.

HTML5 syntax

The HTML 5 language has a "custom" HTML syntax that is compatible with HTML 4 and XHTML1 documents published on the Web, but is not compatible with the more esoteric SGML features of HTML 4. HTML 5 does not have the same syntax rules as XHTML where we needed lower case tag names, quoting our attributes,an attribute had to have a value and to close all empty elements. But HTML5 is coming with lots of flexibility and would support the followings: Uppercase tag names. Quotes are optional for attributes. Attribute values are optional. Closing empty elements are optional. The DOCTYPE: DOCTYPEs in older versions of HTML were longer because the HTML language was SGML based and therefore required a reference to a DTD. HTML 5 authors would use simple syntax to specify DOCTYPE as follows: <!DOCTYPE html> All the above syntax is case-insensitive. Character Encoding: HTML 5 authors can use simple syntax to specify Character Encoding as follows: ...
