Sao Tome and Principe is the only Portuguese speaking country where the Republic of China (Taiwan) is recognised diplomatically. This is a countercurrent case when compared to other countries in Africa, given the growing influence of the People's Republic of China in that continent. The present article focuses on one field of Taiwan's development aid to Sao Tome e Principe as a crucial factor in the bilateral diplomatic relations. In this context, the medical assistance will be focused in detail through the analysis of the cases of the Taiwanese Medical Mission in Sao Tome and the Malaria Eradication Project.
