My only guess is that they would hope Taiwan would pressure the other countries to shape up. But that makes no sense based on the culture/religion of Malaysia and Indonesia vs Taiwan so idk

Yeah, that'd be tough. I was thinking maybe they're just tired or demoralized and near the end of their tour dates, but it is like they have another 40 shows.

Taiwan is the absolute best!
