The Central Weather Administration of Taiwan corrects misconceptions about the island drifting away from China due to earthquakes, clarifying that Taiwan is moving closer to China at a rate of 4 to 8 centimeters annually. This adjustment is based on the movement of tectonic plates, with Taiwan’s position at the Eurasian and Philippine Sea plates’ junction contributing to its gradual shift towards China.

Taiwan is familiar with earthquakes resulting from the collision of tectonic plates, and according to scientists, Taiwan is moving toward the Philippines.
