I remember that in the 70s Taiwan also exported plastic toys, in fact it was printed on one such toy that I learned that there was a country called Taiwan.

@babagandu - I believe this was branded in the toy, which may have been some sort of rubber bird. I was a very young kid then, my memory is blurry about the details but I'm pretty sure it was some sort of rubber toy that made a noise when pressed and that the text "made in Taiwan" was extruded in the rubber at the base of the toy. I was probably not even able to pronounce Taiwan properly, as "w" is not a normal letter in Spanish, so maybe I said "Tai Ban" or whatever.

@mnomadvfx 🤣 Never mind that I see the Russians in general with that "third-worldly" mindset that is often able to do marvels, while the US people tend to be too arrogant for that. On the bad side the Russians are more European and thus more held back by bureaucracy. So it'd be a tight contest depending how you frame it.
