Queer mobilities between Taiwan and Malaysia

 

While Taiwan is widely regarded as Asia’s gay capital for lifestyle consumption, it has rarely been studied as an exporter of queer discourses and tactics, capable of influencing LGBT communities globally. Based on field research, this paper demonstrates how the formations of queer Taiwan and Chinese-speaking, or Sinophone, Malaysia are historically connected and mutually productive. On the one hand, it argues that the queer development of Taiwan has significantly shaped ethnic Chinese LGBT people’s experiences and advocacy work in Malaysia. On the other, it highlights how Sinophone Malaysia is fundamentally transnational and distinctively queer, from other ethnolinguistic communities, as a result of its historical links to Taiwan.
