  1.  @stayfree870  Ma's surrender attitude is treacherous to his own party KMT's principles and ROC's betrayal for giving up to the communists.

  2. DPP does inform the people of Taiwan what is the reality and historical fact.

  3.  @markli3175  " I really don't understand why DPP have to purse taiwan independence because of huge potiental war risk. " This is what people in Taiwan and others don't know yet. Taiwan has been an independent sovereign country after getting freedom and independence from Japan (not China) in 1951 Japan peace treaty. That is the status quo as independent started from that year.

  4.  @markli3175  ROC was government of Taiwan according to 1951 treaty. The 1947 Nanjing constitution (remained unchanged) was for China territory only as Taiwan was still part of Japan until 1951. Your comment is misleading to a false assumption. RoC(Taiwan) is the official name of Taiwan

  5.  @yaucharles91  The ex president has personal reason. He can't make money anymore in Taiwan so he hopes he will win more favor from China to get his share of wealth.

  7.  @evergreennj8950  Taiwan's freedom and independence was from Japan (not China). That's the status quo since 1951.

  8. Ma betrayed the KMT party principle of not surrendering to the communists.

  9. That means China should not interfere by falsely claiming territories outside China's shoreline.

  10. 92 consensus means Ma agrees that Taiwan belongs to China and during his term, China's unification steps were done by peaceful means where Ma allowed Chinese to take control of business and investments. Ma is the selling agent of Taiwan to China.

  11.  @zhuangdavid5037  There was no written document of 92 consensus. It's just a lip service by CCP and KMT trying to say different thing. Former president Lee confirmed that there was no such thing as 92 consensus.

  12.  @zhuangdavid5037  There was no division in China. Taiwan was unified with Japan as one country during the China dynasty period and many decades before the birth of communism in Russia. So all the communists in China parents and grandparents were not even born yet.

  14. all taiwanese should unite for formality meaning to be part of the UN and international organizations. It's easier route if united Taiwan can solicit China to help for formal recognition of Taiwan as a country.

  17. Taiwan was a peaceful progressive Japanized territory of Japan when the Chinese civil war happened in China. Don't compare apples with mandarin oranges.

  18. The unification is between KMT-China and CCP which has nothing to do with Taiwan based on historical facts.

  19. "4, China has never been this hostile. ". Except claiming TAiwan to unify by force and illegal military occupation of southeast Asian sea.

  20. China's false claim is opposite to Status quo.

  21. CCP's illegal annexation of Taiwan in communist history is out of reality.

  22. Did you learn what I replied to you in other comment? China has nothing about Taiwan. There was no division in China. Taiwan was unified with Japan as one country during the China dynasty period and many decades before the birth of communism in Russia. So all the communists in China parents and grandparents were not even born yet.

  23. He wants to convince Taiwanese people to think unification according to China's offer of peaceful means and democratic. In simple word, he wants to fool the Taiwanese people.
