You have such a beautiful country Taiwan.. freedom is not FREE! You must die for it sometimes and protect your lifestyle, love of democracy for yourself and future generations
Why must Taiwanese die for freedom? China had not made any demands on reunification before - they were perfectly ok with Taiwan being different until Tsai came along, ganged up with western countries to force China's hand. All this talk about democracy, seems like as if Guantanamo Bay, Afghanistan prison torture, Iraq war crimes by US forces did not happen.
Democracy and freedom are not the solutions to everything including a good government. The US is a good example. The huge deficit, huge US national debt, war after war, etc.
@@markwongplus Democracy works well when leaders are good. But freedom is still more important than Money. My grandfather lived in colonial era so he explains how you feel without freedom. And communism is another face of authoritarian rule
You mean your definition of freedom? A country where 10% of the population controls 90% of the wealth is freedom to you? Where millions are homeless and have to sleep on the sidewalk?
These young people who tries to seek Taiwanese independence will run away when war breaks out.I come from a family who were part of the KMT Nationalist.All I just want is for us Taiwanese is to get along rather than them being so divisive because they think their ethnically different after a heavy endorse of bad brainwashing to hate Taiwanese people who are descendants of mainland people,tsk tsk..😑
@@rexlapis7250 Nobody wants war. Does Ukraine want war? You need to understand the nature of your neighbour. Do not assume your kindness and friendliness will bring peace. Have you not learnt anything about Taiwan's and Ukraine's neighbours recently? Basically their leaders are liars and insecure dictators. Both claim they do not want war, yet their judges in the UN Court of Justice voted against the call to halt the invasion of Ukraine. Taiwan has to stand up firmly like Ukraine has even if Taiwan needs to face a war. Giving in relentlessly has just been proven a bad option.
You do know the Taiwanese came from China. They are Chinese. There is no going around this. Taiwan is a province. The youth refuse to fight. They don't want independence either.
Taiwan is a democratic country and China should understand this. The lack of freedom and democracy in China is what Taiwanese do not want. Taiwan is doing fine now and we should all respect this. Nonetheless, both are great countries and we hope for no war. Make peace!
'Taiwan is doing fine now' Lololol you should check the street filled with homelessness. Politicians only ever cared about their own position rather than their own people. Furthermore letting US step on them. GMO pork sold to Taiwan, Taiwanese population protest, but still Taiwan import it which major countries refuse. Sold faulty helicopters to Taiwan, result in the dead of military officers. There are freedom and democracy in China in local level. It is more towards meritocracy where it based on individual merits to determine their positions, but of course you wouldn't know that.

Taiwan’s economy is affected by Covid but I am sure they will recover and grow from there. If China were that great as you claimed, Taiwan would have accepted unification.

The overwhelming majority of Taiwan's citizens do not want Unification with communist mainland. So the Taiwanese must be willing to take the necessary steps to be able to defend and deter an invasion. 1. Increase Defence budget to at least 5% of GDP. 2. Resume conscription with 2 years full-time tenure. 3. Women must be welcome to volunteer or also made to serve 2 years like their men. 4. Embrace the idea of a 'nuclear enabled' Taiwan and work towards the goal.
70 percent of Taiwan trade is with china. If they really go to war which I highly doubt so, there will be a huge trade deficit then they need to depend on the undependable. And buying of weapons or increase military spending only benefit one country and is not Taiwan.

Taiwan is already peaceful, prosperous and safe all by itself, it doesn't need to reunite with mainland for these reasons
if the people in Taipei voted to leave Taiwan and become an independent entitiy while the rest of the people in Taiwan voted no against this voting, should Taipei be allowed to go independent? The only difference is that the Mainland does not have any governance over Taiwan yet. And technically PRC and ROC are still in a civil war, since the peace treaty was never signed between them.

It will not make any difference 4 months or 2 years if the mainland really attacks, though I don't think China will attack unless Taiwan declares independence.
No need, just send their parliamentarians as they possess excellent pugilistic skills including chair throwing and spitting. I think such skills are sufficient to scare away the PLA.

TBH, this has been the general attitude of Taiwanese for a good 2-3 decades. The "young" people back then said the same things more or less. Then they got older, most change their minds or became pragmatic, only a handful retain that die hard independent farce. However, it's all for nothing since they won't fight for it.

China would walk right through Taiwan in around 2 weeks! Taiwan needs to start taking this threat serious and not depend on any other country. Top brass in the US (my country) would ask if Taiwan is worth sacrificing our children to fight a superpower. China isn’t Afghanistan and would turn into a global conflict. With that being said, is Taiwan worth a global conflict? The same way they’re asking if Ukraine is worth it right now.
You're right. China is the superpower now, time for US & EU to step aside and let the world be run by China and Russia. Authoritarian governments are better at managing the population.
The US thought the same when it rolled through Iraq and Afghanistan, but the main issue is that a land war insurgency provides plenty of opportunities for minimally armed casual combatants to defeat the political objectives of an occupier, and Táiwān is full of very defensible terrain. If the amount of surveillance and enforcement actions in Xīnjiāng and HK is needed to pacify a fairly sparse and defenseless population, no number of cameras, drones, and police/soldiers will be enough against the millions of Taiwanese taking even occasional potshots if not more deliberate counteractions.
@@ebefl Taiwan belonged to roc after the ww2 and people most people from taiwan right now can trace their roots back in mainland China before they fled to taiwan after losing the civil war
Yes China mainland and Taiwan were the same country under republic of China until 1949. Republic of China got separated into 2 parts (PRC now mainland China and Taiwan now republic of China) because of the civil wars between 1945-1949.
Proper reunification would mean that Taiwan China government took back mainland China. But they lost the civil war. Taiwan island was part of RoC government never PRC government
Don't let the communists divide China, liberate Mainland China from feudal autocratic Communist Bandits and bring peace and prosperity back to the Republic of China.
I am afraid by the time reunification is somewhat plausible, the cultural differences and non interaction with the two will make reuinification impossible. If they want to reuinify, the sooner the better, or else the two will be completely different in all aspects like Chinese are with Indians.
It is never being by CCP about cultural difference, to them it is all about strategical concern and ambition of break the island chain that locking China for nearly 140 years, plus bonus is to completely wipe out the last remain ROC regime that succeed from ancient order as Chinese Nationalist party are still considered themselves the only successor of the ancient continuity while CCP wanted to eradicate the ancient history completely. The unification or conquest will never consider peacefully unless Taiwan is ready to surrender itself. Taiwan would never escape from its own annihilation.

Daily Reminder Taiwan is a free and independent nation with its own military, economy, democratic institutions, elected leader, government, diplomatic relations, economic relations, military relations, and territory.
The territory belongs to China as China won WW2 and Japan returned it to China. Taiwaness are free to get independent in Japan land or in another country. but for the taiwan island, it needs permission from the whole China mainland government. Because this is the result of WW2.
If Taiwan was still an extreme hard liner military dictatorship as it used to be for four decades, I would take no part on the reunification with China issue. It would be like prefering one oppressive authoritarian regime over another. But as it has been a democracy for the last three decades, I support the right of the vast majority of its people to stay independent from China, not as Chinese but as Taiwanese. Taiwan should be recognised worldwide and re-admitted in the UN as Democratic Republic of Taiwan and put an end to the whole matter.
Why would you want to see them die though? Its better be independence through peaceful resolution if there is still a chance. If there isn't any chance to do so, at least try to keep some alive. If anything, letting everybody serve will give China the reason for indiscriminate bombings and (probably) mass shootings. After all when everybody has military potential, everyone becomes a target.
Taiwan has, ever since the Communist takeover of China by Mao Zedong, been an eyesore for Beijing. This is understandable; Taiwan has not only become a highly developed economy with a sophisticated industrial and manufacturing base, particularly software and electronics, its close ties with the financial world of the West and the success of its democracy are a challenge to China’s world view. A scorched-earth policy involving Taiwan destroying its own advanced semiconductor plants in the event of a Chinese invasion would be a good deterrence strategy for the self-ruled island against warmongering China.

Taiwan is an island just like Cuba with a small population of 24 million whereas Cuba has about 12 million. Cuba is a Socialist governed country whereas Taiwan claimed itself as democratically governed. What rubbish idealism of Taiwan's democracy as superior to mainland PRC Socialism system since Cubans and the PRC also have free elections for their leaders and governing system suited to their way of governing system? When it comes to calling out and comparison of Authoritarian rule, it can only be judged by the majority of the people in that country which fully support their Govt. and leaders. That support is the real yardstick of Democratic principles in any governing or selection system adopted. Now, why is the USA placing sanctions on a freely democratic country like Cuba which has a socialist governing system? Aren't those actions becoming of an Authoritarian leader who crippled the Cuban's economic system and their country, when it knows the island is heavily dependent on the USA for its exports etc? Taiwan is also heavily dependent on mainland China for its economic progress having many cross straits dependency of many goods and services. Did China which many labelled as undemocratic, violaters of Human Rights, authoritarian, dictatorial etc sanctioned Taiwan in any way just like what the USA did to Cuba? The bigger picture of world geopolitics is outside the grasps of Taiwanese who seeks secession and independence from mainland China and collaborating with foreign powers, hence threatening the sovereignty, stability and harmony of the whole Chinese Nation, it's people and its civilization. And such traitorous collaborations under the twisted and demented common ideologies and dreams of living under democracy, freedom, liberty etc just show how blindsided and deranged some of such traitorous Taiwanese people are, including their current leaders. Do the Taiwanese not question why, especially now in this period, are such tensions heightened and even possibility of leading to wars between China and the USA and their Anglo Saxon allies, which if every Chinese recall their past history, will know is and always when China is rich, rising and prospering to threaten the Anglo Saxon's supremacy, domination and their civilization. The USA and its Anglo Saxon allies now sees China in this 21st Century as a threat to their Supremacy and domination of the world as well as fears of their civilization downfall. This has happened many times before, in the 20th and early 21st Century when first it was political ideology and wars were fought under the doctrine of "The Cold War" to thwart Communism/Socialism spread and shifted later to Religion leading to the "Clash of Civilizations" ideologue and wars launched under "War on Terror". The main question Taiwanese should ponder about, in this intentionally perpetrated hope of War, ignited by this Taiwan crisis probably, isn't about political ideologies, religion or economics but whether it is willing to continue to be pawns and traitors to be used by others to once again vanquish the rise of China and it's people which posed a presumed threat to the minds of the Anglo Saxons. And if so, then the lives of 27 million Taiwanese is a small price to pay to safeguard the lives, prosperity and civilization of the rest of the 1.4 billion Chinese into the 21st Century.
True but Taiwan also has the Democratic world on its side. When the US is in so are huge armies like UK, India, Europe, Australia, Japan even Korea now have shown their side. Russia may support China in arms but they won't risk one life in that conflict. You can see Xi is a joke to Putin. They had a good laugh at China when the US sanctioned Chinese assets in the US.
the young doesn't want unification .. but they also unwilling to go die in the battlefield .. conclusion, forced unification will be highly successful .. anyhow, I don't think mainland is going on the war direction .. too costly, in terms of money and etc, afterall they have all the time they need ..
Taiwan has stand its roots to be independent both economic and political stability without the influence of mainland China, the people of Taiwan should have the rights to choose the future of its country. Taiwan has since long been independent and for that it should be recognised by China as a free democratic country or an island state. Taiwan should not be in the list of Chinese government "One China Policy" since China doesn't have power to control and put orders over Taiwan's government and its people. Free Taiwan 🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼
You obviously cannot read or understand the Republic of China's Constitution. Do you know the purpose of a Constitution? Obviously not.

Article 26 of the ROC's Constitution specifically states, "all provinces of China including Tibet, Xinjiang and any other provinces are entitled to be represented in the Parliament of the Republic of China." Therefore, by implication Taiwan or the ROC admits to being part of China.

Taiwan can stand as a country without the interference of Chinese government, China is a big country so why not let Taiwan be a country thereof. What else does China look for. We, the people of the world do not understand why China can't do that for the Taiwanese people. We are humans, and we should set aside what constitutions is implied but rather uphold liberty and freedom towards the ever changing world.
@@WeRideTV605 Yes, tell it to those who wielded guns and shoot innocent human beings, in the US. The Constitution governs the conduct of government and its citizens. The escapee KMT during the Civil War killed 1.2 million of yours and mine compatriots including the late Helmsman's wife by shooting her in the head. I am a Malaysian Chinese and I can tell you my mother related to me the heinous behaviour of the Japanese, Nationalist armed forces. The Japanese raped and pillaged the Chinese villages, the Nationalist came and pillage the villages of whatever belongings they had. It was the Communist who restored the villagers faith in humanity. They came with food including rice and chicken and they requested the villagers to cook them a meal to share so that they can discussed the new revolutionary ideas. My late mother mourned for three long months wearing black on the passing of the late Great Helmsman despite not having met him as if he was her father. Such is the deep respect she had for a benefactor and saviour of the Chinese nation. As Charles Liu, a Taiwanese venture capitalist opined the reunification of Taiwan back to the Motherland is inevitable as like night following day. We in the Chinese diaspora would also love to see it return to the fold so that our beloved China will be whole again.
Taiwanese ppl want self rule, they deserve to decide on their own future, period. Taiwan wants free democracy, lies and bullsh*t won’t change that FACT.
The mainland does not care whether Taiwan is democratic or not, and Taiwan's geographical location poses a threat to the Chinese mainland, which means that no matter what kind of system, China must fight
You guys want to preserve your frredom and way of life and yet not willing to go to battlefield or just train better, that is something i dont understand. Taiwanese people need to act and train hard theres no such things as free meal, fight for your freedom dont be too relax.

Dr Matsumoto's Immunoglobulin study in 2009 proves that Taiwanese are austronesian southeast Asians.. sharing the same immunoglobulins as southern han Chinese and austronesian filipinos. Taiwan is Chinese and austronesian genetically, and completely different to all Northeast Asians, including Japanese. Are Taiwanese Chinese? Yes. Southern Han Chinese, mostly, very few have aborigine austronesian blood. Usually Taiwan Han DNA is 100% Southern Han Chinese, clustering with Guangdong province
The vast majority of Taiwanese were ruled by Japanese for the 50 years before the last 70 years of self-rule. "Reunification" for the majority of Taiwanese would be with Japan.
Taiwan to Taiwanese: Home, doesn't want to go to war. Taiwan to Chinese: Some foreign land they deemed their own, wishes to go to war. Let's see what's gonna happen in the end. Would you risk your life to protect your home? Or risk your life for some place that never have anything to do with yourself but only serve as an empowerment for the politician.
Realistically speaking, Taiwan never have identity beside the native living there until the Dutch arrive and the Chinese removed them, Taiwan is just the left over of the Nationalist China who probably were no better than the CCP, maybe even more authoritarian considering they supported Germany Nazi and even Chiang Kai-Shek’s son was officer in the German Army in WW2. If the reunification ever happen it’s just the ending of a prolong Civil War, both “China” aren’t even Chinese anymore but another byproduct of Western creation
Sounds kinda contradictory.....he first says he does not want to reunify with China and wants to maintain Taiwanese' democratic way of life (which is understandable)....then he says he and his friends won't be able to fight due to a lack of military training and do not wish to be engaged in any military conflict (also understandable, after all, who wants to die a violent death). But does he not realize the inherent contradiction? With a China threatening to invade and attack and with a vastly bigger military....how does he expect to have one, if he is not willing to do the other? Taiwanese need to be smarter and more shrewd if they want to carve out more space for themselves internationally...
Chinese people migrated to Taiwan which is a part of China. Taiwanese are Chinese. The Taiwanese territory needs to be returned to China. Taiwan will exist in China, where one country two systems will be practiced. Outside interferences are just looking after their interests, and not the Taiwanese interest.

What Taiwan needs to do is send out military observers to USA, UK, Finland, and Israel, to observer their military training and practices and then bring that knowledge back home and train their own soilders.

The overwhelming majority of Taiwan's citizens do not want Unification with communist mainland.
So the Taiwanese must be willing to take the necessary steps to be able to defend and deter an invasion.
1. Increase Defence budget to at least 5% of GDP.
2. Resume conscription with 2 years full-time tenure.
3. Women must be welcome to volunteer or also made to serve 2 years like their men.
4. Embrace the idea of a 'nuclear enabled' Taiwan and work towards the goal.

If every young man in Taiwan like this guy not willing to fight for Taiwan Sovereignty, then there is no hope for Taiwan to be independent from China. Fortunately young generation in China probably also does not like to fight a war with any nation because they are busy to make money.
Keep Taiwan free! The free wolrd MUST fight China! On EVERY FRONT!!
Want independence yet not willing to fight for it. Is this just a joke?
No, it is commonly call cowardice hiding behind the US skirt and also a fiasco if the Taiwanese Parliament is any guide where pugilistic skills including chair throwing and spitting is the substitute for debating the issues.

OMG. You are so ignorant and majority of people are like you. Please educated yourself on the basic and stop listening to misinformation and general shouting from politicians.
Communism is an economical system for common ownership which should classless, governless and power to the people. (Which hasn't been achieved)
A capitalism is when industry is owned by the individuals. (Which mainly has been achieve and getting quicker, becoz the rich bribed or influenced all political parties)
While democracy Philosophy should be based free elections (hasn't been really achieved in all democracies)
There are some countries have communism political parties with other capitalism parties.
Don't get confused. What the world needs is a leader that is benevolent and not self serving and uncorruptable.

The best supporting example I can find is the 1999 Belgrade bombings of the Chinese embassy and the subsequent backlash particularly in the US embassy in Taipei. It summarizes the entire relation. Conflict between nations. Unity in nationality

Unification is whole china say..not only small community Taiwanese to say yes or not
Taiwan is not part of mainland. Only confused talk about unification
There is no freedom in China to say anything.
Pretty sure that's not how self-determination works
Also I guess a lot of young Taiwanese saw what happened to HK and Macau and are probably thinking no thank you.
Whatever happens in Taiwan is the business of Taiwan people. Taiwan needs to do everything to avoid being a playing card of the US.
TBH, this has been the general attitude of Taiwanese for a good 2-3 decades. The "young" people back then said the same things more or less. Then they got older, most change their minds or became pragmatic, only a handful retain that die hard independent farce. However, it's all for nothing since they won't fight for it.
Hardly anyone under 60 has that same fighting spirit and realistic endeavors as those who fled the mainland after the end of the Chinese civil war. That generation, and their children's generation were the last ones who you could count on to actually stand up and fight. But after that, all they've been doing is playing games, trying to drag the US/Japan into their shenanigans and trying to benefit from both sides of the aisle. You cannot take a lot of Taiwanese seriously regarding this topic anymore.
I have no idea if there will be war or whatever scheme the PRC has to retake Taiwan, but I think for those in Taiwan who can still think with reason, they better have some contingency plans NOW in case the forces for reunification become too obvious.
Everybody in Taiwan would be required to become soldier regardless of the career path

Only if China is unified under the Three Principles of the People.
China would walk right through Taiwan in around 2 weeks! Taiwan needs to start taking this threat serious and not depend on any other country. Top brass in the US (my country) would ask if Taiwan is worth sacrificing our children to fight a superpower. China isn’t Afghanistan and would turn into a global conflict. With that being said, is Taiwan worth a global conflict? The same way they’re asking if Ukraine is worth it right now.
You're right. China is the superpower now, time for US & EU to step aside and let the world be run by China and Russia. Authoritarian governments are better at managing the population.
@@JC-er7je Nah I would rather move to Mars
The US thought the same when it rolled through Iraq and Afghanistan, but the main issue is that a land war insurgency provides plenty of opportunities for minimally armed casual combatants to defeat the political objectives of an occupier, and Táiwān is full of very defensible terrain. If the amount of surveillance and enforcement actions in Xīnjiāng and HK is needed to pacify a fairly sparse and defenseless population, no number of cameras, drones, and police/soldiers will be enough against the millions of Taiwanese taking even occasional potshots if not more deliberate counteractions.

It is never being by CCP about cultural difference, to them it is all about strategical concern and ambition of break the island chain that locking China for nearly 140 years, plus bonus is to completely wipe out the last remain ROC regime that succeed from ancient order as Chinese Nationalist party are still considered themselves the only successor of the ancient continuity while CCP wanted to eradicate the ancient history completely.

If Taiwan was still an extreme hard liner military dictatorship as it used to be for four decades, I would take no part on the reunification with China issue. It would be like prefering one oppressive authoritarian regime over another. But as it has been a democracy for the last three decades, I support the right of the vast majority of its people to stay independent from China, not as Chinese but as Taiwanese. Taiwan should be recognised worldwide and re-admitted in the UN as Democratic Republic of Taiwan and put an end to the whole matter.
Democracy isn't free, you have to earn it. I'd like to see Taiwan go full Israel, where everyone serves, including women.
Why would you want to see them die though?
Its better be independence through peaceful resolution if there is still a chance. If there isn't any chance to do so, at least try to keep some alive. If anything, letting everybody serve will give China the reason for indiscriminate bombings and (probably) mass shootings. After all when everybody has military potential, everyone becomes a target.

Taiwan has, ever since the Communist takeover of China by Mao Zedong, been an eyesore for Beijing. This is understandable; Taiwan has not only become a highly developed economy with a sophisticated industrial and manufacturing base, particularly software and electronics, its close ties with the financial world of the West and the success of its democracy are a challenge to China’s world view. A scorched-earth policy involving Taiwan destroying its own advanced semiconductor plants in the event of a Chinese invasion would be a good deterrence strategy for the self-ruled island against warmongering China.
China values this land rather than semiconductors, Taiwan's military value is as important as its economic value
The reason china wants the island is not for some stupid conductors that china can mass produced taiwnan is really insignificant but Taiwan is china and it belongs to it not to the USA and that hate of seeing your land being ruled by someone else is infuriating to the Chinese and that’s the reason of.

China needs to differentiate sovereign and culture. Taiwan belong to China's sovereign, even with a little bit different in culture, people live there is still Chinese. On the other hand, China also need to respect it's neighbor sovereign and culture as they are those who support the one China policy. This will boost asia unity and peaceful co-opperation.
from the land to the sea, taiwan will stay free.
Taiwan is an island just like Cuba with a small population of 24 million whereas Cuba has about 12 million. Cuba is a Socialist governed country whereas Taiwan claimed itself as democratically governed. What rubbish idealism of Taiwan's democracy as superior to mainland PRC Socialism system since Cubans and the PRC also have free elections for their leaders and governing system suited to their way of governing system? When it comes to calling out and comparison of Authoritarian rule, it can only be judged by the majority of the people in that country which fully support their Govt. and leaders. That support is the real yardstick of Democratic principles in any governing or selection system adopted.
Now, why is the USA placing sanctions on a freely democratic country like Cuba which has a socialist governing system? Aren't those actions becoming of an Authoritarian leader who crippled the Cuban's economic system and their country, when it knows the island is heavily dependent on the USA for its exports etc? Taiwan is also heavily dependent on mainland China for its economic progress having many cross straits dependency of many goods and services. Did China which many labelled as undemocratic, violaters of Human Rights, authoritarian, dictatorial etc sanctioned Taiwan in any way just like what the USA did to Cuba?
The bigger picture of world geopolitics is outside the grasps of Taiwanese who seeks secession and independence from mainland China and collaborating with foreign powers, hence threatening the sovereignty, stability and harmony of the whole Chinese Nation, it's people and its civilization. And such traitorous collaborations under the twisted and demented common ideologies and dreams of living under democracy, freedom, liberty etc just show how blindsided and deranged some of such traitorous Taiwanese people are, including their current leaders. Do the Taiwanese not question why, especially now in this period, are such tensions heightened and even possibility of leading to wars between China and the USA and their Anglo Saxon allies, which if every Chinese recall their past history, will know is and always when China is rich, rising and prospering to threaten the Anglo Saxon's supremacy, domination and their civilization.
The USA and its Anglo Saxon allies now sees China in this 21st Century as a threat to their Supremacy and domination of the world as well as fears of their civilization downfall. This has happened many times before, in the 20th and early 21st Century when first it was political ideology and wars were fought under the doctrine of "The Cold War" to thwart Communism/Socialism spread and shifted later to Religion leading to the "Clash of Civilizations" ideologue and wars launched under "War on Terror".
The main question Taiwanese should ponder about, in this intentionally perpetrated hope of War, ignited by this Taiwan crisis probably, isn't about political ideologies, religion or economics but whether it is willing to continue to be pawns and traitors to be used by others to once again vanquish the rise of China and it's people which posed a presumed threat to the minds of the Anglo Saxons. And if so, then the lives of 27 million Taiwanese is a small price to pay to safeguard the lives, prosperity and civilization of the rest of the 1.4 billion Chinese into the 21st Century.
If Taiwan doesn’t officially declare their independence this generation, the next generation of taiwan will.

Maybe I will enlighten you being a lawyer but you really do not need to be a lawyer to understand the wordings in the Constitution, okay? It is not meant to be as the common average person including an imbecile like you should be able to come to some sort of understanding. Article 26 of the ROC's Constitution specifically states, "all provinces of China including Tibet, Xinjiang and any other provinces are entitled to be represented in the Parliament of the Republic of China." Therefore, by implication Taiwan or the ROC admits to being part of China. If you read Paragraph 7 of the First Communique signed between Zhou En Lai and Richard Nixon in 1972 specifically states that " Taiwan is an inalienable part of China." Please let me know which part of the Communique and the ROC Constitution you do not comprehend.

The Japanese raped and pillaged the Chinese villages, the Nationalist came and pillage the villages of whatever belongings they had. It was the Communist who restored the villagers faith in humanity. They came with food including rice and chicken and they requested the villagers to cook them a meal to share so that they can discussed the new revolutionary ideas. My late mother mourned for three long months wearing black on the passing of the late Great Helmsman despite not having met him as if he was her father.

Taiwanese ppl want self rule, they deserve to decide on their own future, period. Taiwan wants free democracy, lies and bullsh*t won’t change that FACT.

But does he not realize the inherent contradiction? With a China threatening to invade and attack and with a vastly bigger military....how does he expect to have one, if he is not willing to do the other? Taiwanese need to be smarter and more shrewd if they want to carve out more space for themselves internationally...
He meant he did not want false claim of China's unification.
