democratic society, peacefully, this is marvelous. if you look at nations around the world, having such a smooth transition, peaceful transition, we are fortunate to be honest. if you talk about the miracles, i also think there's one things that very distinctly different. it's the education system. when i was young, only 10% of the young people entered college or universities. today 80% of the young people have college or university degrees. the government set up many colleges, universities. every kid, if you want to go to university, you can go as long as you spend time. that has created a good quality of population in taiwan posing

pride. my priority is getting that constitutional change done first. >> prime minister albanese, thank you so much. congratulations on your victory. >> thanks, jake. thank you for spending your sunday morning with us. fareed zakaria "gps" starts right now. this is "gps," the global public square. welcome to all of you in the united states and around the world. i'm fareed zakaria coming to you live from new york. today on the program those who play with fire perish by it. that was chinese president xi's warning this week to president biden over taiwan. the big question, will speaker pelosi travel to the island after all and risk china's ire? if she does, how might china respond? i will talk to the former chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, admiral mike mullen about

the most important thing we should worry about because this invasion if it comes, it's the destruction of the world order. there's no -- the gio political landscape would totally change. >> do you worry that the -- does that create a danger for taiwan or is it the deterrent? people talk about the tsmc shield. you could equally see beijing saying we need to have total control of this -- this is the most valuable asset and it's outside our borders. >> okay. nobody can control tsmc by
connected with taiwan strait, they are very different, but in case you think about in parallel, ukraine war is not good for any of the side, from the western world, from russia, for ukraine. it's loose, loose, loose scenarios. all three side ought to draw lessons. i think they do. we should use those lessons to look at the lens on taiwan. how can we avoid a war? how can we ensure the world economies -- engine of the world economy continue running and let's have a fair competition on top of the platform. that's what i think. >> next on gps, more with mark lu, the chair of asia's biggest company. the chip maker tsmc as he warns china against invading taiwan. back in a moment.
