I don't recall feeling a lot of fear. Taiwan is not very relevant to Islamic extremism. There was of course a lot of chatter, a lot of meetings, etc. But the kids seemed to be more abuzz about the drama of it rather than feeling fear, iirc.

I was in high school in Taiwan. Walked past the living room where my parents were watching the news and saw the planes go into the towers. I thought they were watching a movie. They only told me about 30 minutes later what actually happened.
I went to an American high school in Taiwan at the time. Classes were cancelled for the week, and in the following week we had soldiers guarding the campus.
