World's finest in what regards?

Have you seen what the conflict resolution[1] they chose in parliament meetings?

> and the US governance one of the worst.

Are you also aware that United States has almost 14x of the population than Taiwan's? The governance of 330 million people coming from many different backgrounds and ethnicities around the global vs. 98% of homogeneous Han Chinese[2] are an order of magnitude difficult?

I am afraid your anecdotal doesn't tell the full story.

With 14x the population, isn't the cost of a given mask-finder app like the one the OP pointed out amortized over 14 times as many taxpayers?
