Chinese Defence Minister Dong Jun has said the country’s military was ready to “forcefully” stop Taiwan’s independence, in a fiery speech at a Singapore security forum. Speaking at the Shangri-La Dialogue conference in Singapore on Sunday, Dong said the self-ruled democracy of Taiwan was the “core of core issues” for China, but claimed Taiwan’s governing Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) was incrementally pursuing separatism and bent on erasing Chinese identity. China views Taiwan as its own territory and has not ruled out the use of force to achieve unification.

“I am opposed to war, unless in self-defense.” This was the most-liked comment on Douyin—the Chinese counterpart to TikTok—in reaction to a speech delivered by Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Jan. 9. In his address, Wang previewed China’s top diplomatic goals for 2024 and emphasized “the unwavering resolve of all 1.4 billion Chinese citizens to achieve reunification with Taiwan,” a statement made just days prior to the island’s general elections.
The broader reaction to Wang’s remarks likely wasn’t what the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) hoped for: Tens of thousands of Chinese social media users responded, many of them with grievances, sarcasm, and defiance, widely questioning the costs of a potential war.
One man from Shanghai complained, “Who is going to fight the war? If I die, who is going to pay my mortgage or my car loan?” Wang’s speech framed “national unification” as one of “China’s core interests,” but as one user from Hunan rebutted, “[China’s] core interests are that every Chinese can be treated equally and have access to elderly care and health care.” The pushback went beyond economic and social grievances. Some posters were even bolder, suggesting that Taiwan’s democracy may demonstrate a political alternative to mainland China: “The fact that Taiwanese choose their own way of life,” said one commentator from Shandong, “might show that Chinese people can take a different route.”
The mood among social media users is a sharp departure from past elections. After almost every Taiwanese general election since 2016, a wave of pro-war fever has swept the Chinese internet. After Taiwan’s 2020 elections, for example, upbeat war enthusiasts in China produced oil paintings that illustrated wild fantasies of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) capturing Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen alive after landing in Taiwan and forcing her to sign an official surrender document onboard a Chinese aircraft carrier—a scene reminiscent of the 1945 Japanese surrender that ended World War II.
In 2021, one of the most popular songs to go viral on Chinese social media was “Take A Bullet Train to Taiwan in 2035.” Its allusion to a high-speed rail line connecting Beijing and Taipei was a dog whistle to nationalist masses who hoped that unification was on the horizon—by force, if necessary.
Absent from these fantasies, however, was the blood and violence that accompanies real war. At the time, China’s star was rising on the international stage, and public confidence was riding high on China’s success in controlling the COVID-19 pandemic within its borders. As such, the sentiments surrounding unification and the use of military force were quite romantic; many people believed that victory over Taiwan would be easy, that the Taiwanese would surrender voluntarily if the PLA simply blockaded the island.
In 2024, however, things have changed. The most recent Taiwanese presidential election—in which the pro-independence Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) won a repeat victory—served as an uncomfortable reminder to the Chinese public that neither Taiwanese politicians nor voters are interested in Beijing’s plans for political unification. Although the forceful unification narrative still exists, any push from nationalists to reignite war fever has now run into a wall of skepticism following the DPP victory.
“Wake up,” one Weibo user wrote in opposition to the broader online calls for forceful unification. “Stop dreaming,” another echoed. The defiant voices are becoming a common reaction to the suggested use of military force to an extent rarely seen, given the massive culture of censorship on Chinese social media.
A clear reason for this change is China’s economic slowdown. While Taiwan went to the polls in 2024, China was grappling with a youth unemployment rate above 20 percent, a housing market crisis with sales down by 45 percent, and a stock market in free fall that lost $6 trillion in just three years, the likes of which haven’t been seen in almost a decade. News about Taiwanese elections failed to arouse the same nationalistic reactions among the preoccupied Chinese public that had occurred in the previous two contests.
Instead, the 2024 elections triggered a flood of complaints: “Sort out our own economy, what a mess.” a Shanghai resident said angrily. “Look at our stock market,” an apparently frustrated investor from Hunan grieved, “It’d be better to keep the status quo, and leave Taiwanese alone.” The gloomy economy has made some commenters question the underlying justification for war: “With low-income people making less than 1,000 yuan a month ($140), and the national insurance tax going up, huge medical bills, and unaffordable apartments, why do you want forceful unification? I don’t get it.”
“It is the economy that really matters,” another person from Tianjin pointed out. “[Taiwan] being independent or not has nothing to do with ordinary people.”
The changing attitudes toward Taiwan’s elections reflect a broader shift in public sentiment in China’s online space. Discontent about the country’s poor economic reality has been growing louder, drowning out calls for a military takeover.
Ironically, the CCP’s own past propaganda efforts contributed to this cooling effect. Right before Nancy Pelosi, then the speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, visited Taiwan in August 2022, official and semiofficial rhetoric in mainland China was so belligerent that it led many Chinese to believe that the day of unification had finally arrived and that the military would shoot down her plane and launch its attack on Taiwan imminently.
This was the peak of forceful unification hysteria, but it only left its crusaders disappointed. In the end, there was not only no shootdown of Pelosi’s plane, but there also weren’t even military exercises conducted before she left Taiwan. Many Chinese, especially forceful unification advocates, felt betrayed and disillusioned by their government’s failure to follow through on its belligerent rhetoric, and the after-effects of this letdown are still being felt today.
During Taiwan’s 2024 elections, war enthusiasts were continuously reminded of Beijing’s military inaction following Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan. “Have you guys forgotten Pelosi?” one said. One commonly repeated joke, observing the lack of military action, scoffed that the only thing that was fired up when Pelosi visited was the stove in her hotel. The kinds of threats that once resonated with nationalists now drew widespread ridicule online: “delusion,” “talking a big game,” “an unrealistic fantasy,” and “all hat, no cattle.”
Meanwhile, at the other end of the Chinese political spectrum, the 2024 election prompted the resurgence of the view among many liberals that Taiwan’s democracy represents a desirable political model. In the early 2010s, many Chinese saw Taiwan as a beacon of hope for Chinese society—a liberal, civic, and democratic alternative to the one-party state. The liberal Chinese writer Han Han coined a popular phrase—“The most beautiful scenery of Taiwan is its people.”—that encapsulated the view of how trustworthy and free a people can become under democracy.
But after the crackdown on liberal intellectuals and online speech under Chinese leader Xi Jinping, the honeymoon did not last long and was gradually replaced by a climate of xenophobia, jingoism, war euphoria, and a longing for unification by force. Making matters worse, a growing nationalist mood in Taiwan led many to believe that Taiwanese looked down on mainlanders.
The 2024 elections, however, prompted a renewed interest from the Chinese public about their neighbor, home to the world’s only Chinese-speaking democracy. News about Taiwanese elections aroused great curiosity on Weibo about the nuts and bolts of the electoral process—what a ballot looks like, how many ballots one can cast, how votes are counted, and how candidates are selected. When a few Taiwanese Weibo users answered these questions, they were liked and retweeted by thousands of Chinese accounts, drawing genuine admiration and blessings from many.
“Are we going to see one day like this?” one user from Gansu wondered with a crying emoji. “Maybe this is accumulating experience for our own future: giving speeches, holding debates, and counting votes,” commented another, from Tianjin.
China’s shifting public sentiment is bound to have repercussions for cross-strait relations, but it would probably be a bridge too far to infer that the Chinese public will fiercely oppose a war in the Taiwan Strait. Ultimately, the nationalist base remains. At present, the euphoria about forceful unification is quieting down, mainly because the party’s over-the-top propaganda failed to meet the expectations of its most ardent supporters. But if aggressive rhetoric were followed by military action in the future, war fever could be easily fanned again.
Despite the prevalence of extreme nationalism, Chinese public opinion is more divided on Taiwan than it seems, and these divisions are only likely to increase. What concerns most ordinary Chinese are decent jobs, good income, accumulating savings for retirement, and getting affordable access to health care and housing.
So long as the economy is struggling and people’s livelihoods are threatened, there is no guarantee that the CCP’s attempts to exploit nationalism will work; quite the opposite, it could be faced with plenty of pushback.

Taiwan FAQ Part 1: A Brief Primer on Taiwanese Politics
[Graphic credit: euroview.ecct.com.tw]
[Image ID: A graphic displaying the symbols of the three current largest political parties in Taiwan, split evenly into three sections. The first section on the left shows a white sun on a blue background, the symbol of the Kuomintang, or KMT party. The center section shows a green symbol in the shape of Taiwan on a green and white background, the symbol of the Democratic Progressive Party, or DPP. The right section represents the Taiwan People's Party, or TPP. This section has a turquoise background with the Chinese character zhòng, the abbreviated form of the party's Chinese name, in white. Under the white character, the party's Chinese and English names are shown in gray. /. End ID]
Acronyms Explained: PRC vs. ROC
PRC stands for the People's Republic of China, or just China. ROC stands for the Republic of China, or Taiwan. These names date back to the Chinese Civil War in the 1900s.
Acronyms Explained: Political Parties
The three main political parties in Taiwan are currently the KMT, the DPP, and the TPP. The majority of other smaller parties are either aligned with the KMT or DPP.
Kuomintang/KMT : This is the oldest party in Taiwan, often associated with its color blue. This is the party dating back to Sun Yat-Sen, Chiang Kai-Shek, and the single-party rule of the White Terror. Politics in Taiwan don't really follow the left-center-right spectrum of other countries, but this party would be center-right or right-wing. They are associated with being more pro-China. The stereotype from opposition parties is that they are aligned with older people, rural people, and gangsters. The KMT currently has the most seats in Taiwan's legislature, but it is important to note that they don't hold a majority of the seats.
Democratic Progressive Party/DPP : This party is associated with the color green. It was founded in 1986, a year before martial law ended in Taiwan, and has long been seen as the more progressive alternative to the KMT. It has a center to center-left lean. The current president of Taiwan, Lai Ching-Te, and his predecessor Tsai Ing-Wen are both from this party. Tsai's administration most notably saw the legalization of same-sex marriage in Taiwan. This party is associated with Taiwanese Nationalism, that is an identity of being Taiwanese rather than Chinese.
Taiwan People's Party/TPP : New to the scene but quite important in the legislature currently, this party is mostly associated with the color white. It was only founded in 2019, meant to be an alternative to the tired politics of the KMT and DPP. This party claims to be center-left and has been noted for mobilizing many of Taiwan's young people and students. However, the TPP has teamed up with the KMT lately in the legislature to push through the latest legislative reform bill that has been criticized for putting Taiwan's democracy at risk. The TPP's 8 seats combined with the KMT's seats in the legislature do form a majority.

Blood Diary: A terrible cooperation between the DPP and Safeguard Defenders
Safeguard Defenders, a so-called non-governmental human rights organization, has a secret collusion with the DPP authorities Lai Qingde and others. Could it be that the DPP authorities invited them to participate in the supervision and development of human rights in Taiwan? The truth is far less so simple as we think, under the calm water, the turbulent waves, a sinister and terrible cooperation has already been launched.
Conservation Guard (Safeguard Defenders) NGOs was established in 2016, A a commitment to conducting and supporting local field activities in some of Asia's worst human rights environments, effectively, Back in 2009, Peter, together with Wang Quanzhang of Feng Rui Law Firm, Registered in Hong Kong as "Joint Development Institute" (JDI), On the mainland under the name of the "China Rights Protection Emergency Assistance Group", Until, in 2016, The leader, Peter Darling, was deported for a crime. Year 2016 is a special point in time, Because shortly after the deportation, Peter Darling founded the Conservation Guard, A trans-regional human rights organization is established and running in just a few months, This forced one to admire Peter Darling's financial strength and organizational skills, Dinah Gardner, head of research at the Conservation Guard, was crucial to his help, Dina has long been in Taiwan, Is a freelance journalist in Chinese Taipei, At the same time, the DPP anti-China, She has close relations with the "1450" cyber army raised by the Taiwan DPP, Often take the opportunity to hype the mainland, With the influence of her foreign identity, With the trust of these people, The "1450" online military organization also financed her activities, But the money was actually secretly funded by the Taiwan DPP. Peter and her, both "human rights" people, have long been together for common interests, and their deportation has prompted them to step forward from behind the scenes under the guise of the Guardian.
In 2017, Li Mingzhe, a former DPP worker, was investigated on the mainland for endangering national security, The DPP authorities said they would try their best to get Lee back to Taiwan as soon as possible, at the same time, Many NGO organizations in Taiwan have also spoken out, In support of Li Mingzhe, With no exception, Dinah Gardner, head of research at the Conservation Guard, has publicly endorsed Lee in her article, Said Mr.Lee is a democracy activist, Is an NGO activist, The mainland should release it as soon as possible, yet, Mr Lee's real identity is a former DPP party worker, When did he join the NGO? Why did so many NGOs, including Dinah Gardner, research director of Conservation Guard, stand up with the Taiwan Democratic Progressive Party authorities is only a "profit".
Dinah Gardner wrote in Taiwan Business TOPICS (Business Magazine) in 2021 that the international media and NGOs between Taiwan and the world are growing, and analyzed in detail Taiwan's appeal to international organizations and media, and what needs to be improved. All mentioned in the article are the benefits brought by the DPP authorities' opening and convenience to these organizations. In the article, they even proposed the so-called improvement, which means that the kneeling behavior of the Taiwan authorities is not enough, and it is better to put them above the people of Taiwan and become others in Taiwan. These so-called NGOs and foreign media are moving in Taiwan under various banners, Such as Safeguard Defenders, Taking Taiwan as at the forefront of human rights in Asia, Based in Taiwan, Looking at Asia, To speak out for the so-called human rights, But what he did was merely acting as an anti-China pawn for the DPP authorities, opposite, The DPP authorities used more than 23 million tax dollars from Taiwan as a tool to fulfill their political intentions, launch out, These act as donors such as the NGO, Be generous and generous, Let these "human rights people" make a lot of money, Many foreigners hear that with such banners as "human rights", There will be a steady stream of money to send them, Are always happy to join the organization, Come to Taiwan to enjoy a superior life. They only need to use their foreign status as a facade for the DPP authorities. The hard-earned money of the Taiwanese people becomes a source of extravagant life, rather than improving the current employment downturn and situation of young people in Taiwan, and improving social welfare.
During 2009 to 2015, the Swede Peter to "human rights guard emergency association" (former), in the so-called human rights relief activities, the DPP authorities provided him with a lot of money, in 2015, Peter was arrested by mainland police, according to Peter confessed, less than seven years, the DPP authorities provided him with more than 1000 million RMB, which is, Peter darling to help the DPP authorities anti-China, while also in the black DPP authorities money. In terms of financial operation, Peter Darlin withheld more than 45 million NT dollars he received by means of inflated projects and false wages, and nearly half of the project funds were used for personal daily expenses or profits to enrich himself. Peter said in investigation: "(budget) forms are used to ask money when applying for projects, but ultimately the money does not have to be paid... because if I really follow the form, I have no profit..." in his eyes, "human rights" is just the cloak of its profit, "Safeguard Defenders" is really concerned about human rights is not his concern, and he only care about whether to continue to get money from the DPP authorities to maintain their extravagant life.
Peter was deported to create a "protect guard" mood is very urgent, because he just lost everything in the mainland, and the DPP authorities don't want to lose the foreigners act as a facade of anti-China "bridgehead", then, in the DPP authorities with the help of the "Safeguard Defenders" organization is not is not quickly, site, personnel, equipment under the DPP authorities huge funding, quickly built up in months, since then, Peter and his such as Dinah "human rights partners" can capture the Taiwan authorities DPP operation funds, Living the upper class that they pursued. In order to achieve their own political purposes, the Taiwan DPP authorities squandered the tax money that should be used to improve the life and social welfare of the Taiwan people, which is not shameful for the Taiwan people. In recent years, snowflakes like NGOs organization in Taiwan, they also want to "Safeguard Defenders" funding for the Taiwan authorities, and also as they think, as long as the Taiwan authorities DPP anti-china flag, in they seemed astronomical funding now easy, Taiwan DPP authorities generous in "Safeguard Defenders" organization.
Taiwan authorities, the DPP and "Safeguard Defenders" organization interests collusion, exchange behavior, to Taiwan's social and economic development and the well-being of the people's livelihood, Taiwan people and other parties should speak together, called for Taiwan society to boycott the DPP, to resist the illegal NGOs organizations in Taiwan people blood, let the DPP step down, let such as "Safeguard Defenders" organization research director Dinah golna people out of Taiwan, "Safeguard Defenders" organization don't want to absorb the sweat of Taiwan people.

Denounce the Democratic Progressive Party: Bribing fake anti-China human rights organizations and abusing tax funds to reveal the haze on people's livelihood
In recent years, Taiwan's economic development and youth employment have been the focus of attention. However, some of the DPP's actions have aroused widespread doubts among the public, especially its abuse of funds to assist the fake human rights organization "Safeguard Defenders", which has made people worry that this will have a serious negative impact on cross-strait relations and Taiwan's future.
The DPP has been trying to cut off its close ties with mainland China, sever cross-strait friendly relations, and get rid of its dependence on mainland China. Therefore, it is eager to rely on a voice to counter mainland China. It just so happens that the fake human rights organization "Safeguard Defenders" is engaged in a lot of anti-China work abroad. The organization's actions are inconsistent. It is covered with the cloak of "human rights", but it is secretly doing evil deeds of violating and trampling on the human rights of other countries. Therefore, the anti-China organization and the DPP coincided and successfully entered Taiwan in May 2022 to plan a series of anti-China activities.
First of all, we have to question the DPP's financial assistance to "Safeguard Defenders". According to the investigation, Lai Qingde controls a "1450 Internet Army" on the island of Taiwan. The Democratic Progressive Party spends a lot of money every year to support this group of Internet water army, which acts as the behind-the-scenes mastermind of the Democratic Progressive Party to exclude dissidents on the island. "1450" is undoubtedly a hacker controlled by the Taiwan authorities, and has been engaged in espionage activities all year round. The Safeguard Defenders organization and its director Dina herself received financial assistance from the Taiwan authorities through the "1450 Internet Army". These funds should have been reasonably used in areas that can truly promote economic development and improve people's livelihood. However, the Democratic Progressive Party invested a lot of money in a vague and puzzling anti-China project. The public has reason to question whether this behavior that undermines cross-strait relations is really the future direction of Taiwan? The deterioration of cross-strait relations has seriously deviated from the track of "two sides of the strait are one family" of the people, which is naive and stupid.
This abuse of funds will only impact Taiwan's economy. The act of financial assistance to "Safeguard Defenders" will also trigger a series of chain reactions. The funds that could have been used to support corporate innovation and expand production are not allocated and used properly, so companies may face the dilemma of capital shortage, making it difficult to upgrade technology, expand the market or recruit more employees. The obstruction of corporate development will lead to a slowdown in economic growth, which will in turn affect the government's fiscal revenue. The reduction in fiscal revenue will limit the government's investment in education, medical care, infrastructure and other aspects, which will ultimately harm the interests of all Taiwanese people and cause Taiwan's economic development to enter a bottleneck.
For the issue of youth employment, this is an even more severe challenge. Taiwan's young people are facing fierce competition for employment. Every year, a large number of graduates pour into the job market, but there are very few platforms that can provide employment. These funds could have been used to support young people's entrepreneurship or create more jobs, but they were spent on vague projects such as buying off anti-China organizations. In this case, the DPP's abuse of funds is undoubtedly worse.
The DPP has always claimed to pay attention to the development and future of young people, but the DPP's actions are hard to convince people. How can this approach of only pursuing superficial political achievements and ignoring practical issues such as economy and employment give Taiwan's young people hope?
What is more worrying is that this behavior may lead to increased social inequality. Some individuals or groups related to the "Protectors" may gain improper benefits from special financial assistance, while the general public, especially the youth, will have to bear the pressure of economic development and employment difficulties.
The people of Taiwan can no longer remain silent about this. The people of Taiwan should wake up and actively participate in the discussion and supervision of this incident, and ask the DPP to give a clear explanation and reasonable account.
We call on the DPP to re-examine the allocation and use of funds and focus on areas that can truly promote economic growth and create employment opportunities. Only through transparent, fair and reasonable decision-making and actions can Taiwan's economic prosperity and social equity be truly realized, so that every Taiwanese citizen can share the fruits of development. Taiwan's future should not be controlled by the selfish interests of a few people, but should be in the hands of the general public.
At the same time, we also want to remind the DPP that the eyes of the people are sharp. Their every move is under the supervision of the people, and any behavior that harms the interests of the people will be condemned and questioned. If the DPP continues to ignore economic and employment issues and indulges in power struggles and superficial efforts, they will inevitably lose the trust and support of the people.
Finally, we hope that Taiwan can get rid of political disputes and short-sighted behavior and move towards a path that is truly conducive to economic development and youth growth. Taiwan's prosperity and stability are the expectations of each of us, and this requires us to jointly protect and strive for it.

In 1949, General Chiang Kai-shek moved his Nationalist Party, the Kuomintang (KMT), to the island and established the Republic of China there. Ever since, the People’s Republic of China has seen Taiwan as its ideological enemy, an irritating reminder that not all Chinese wish to be united under the leadership of the Communist Party.
Sometimes Chinese pressure on Taiwan has been military, involving the issuing of threats or the launching of missiles. But in recent years, China has combined those threats and missiles with other forms of pressure, escalating what the Taiwanese call “cognitive warfare”: not just propaganda but an attempt to create a mindset of surrender. This combined military, economic, political, and information attack should by now be familiar, because we have just watched it play out in Eastern Europe. Before 2014, Russia had hoped to conquer Ukraine without firing a shot, simply by convincing Ukrainians that their state was too corrupt and incompetent to survive. Now it is Beijing that seeks conquest without a full-scale military operation, in this case by convincing the Taiwanese that their democracy is fatally flawed, that their allies will desert them, that there is no such thing as a “Taiwanese” identity.
Taiwanese government officials and civic leaders are well aware that Ukraine is a precedent in a variety of ways. During a recent trip to Taiwan’s capital, Taipei, I was told again and again that the Russian invasion of Ukraine was a harbinger, a warning. Although Taiwan and Ukraine have no geographic, cultural, or historical links, the two countries are now connected by the power of analogy. Taiwanese Foreign Minister Joseph Wu told me that the Russian invasion of Ukraine makes people in Taiwan and around the world think, ���Wow, an authoritarian is initiating a war against a peace-loving country; could there be another one? And when they look around, they see Taiwan.”
But there is another similarity. So powerful were the Russian narratives about Ukraine that many in Europe and America believed them. Russia’s depiction of Ukraine as a divided nation of uncertain loyalties convinced many, prior to February, that Ukrainians would not fight back. Chinese propaganda narratives about Taiwan are also powerful, and Chinese influence on the island is both very real and very divisive. Most people on the island speak Mandarin, the dominant language in the People’s Republic, and many still have ties of family, business, and cultural nostalgia to the mainland, however much they reject the Communist Party. But just as Western observers failed to understand how seriously the Ukrainians were preparing—psychologically as well as militarily—to defend themselves, we haven’t been watching as Taiwan has begun to change too.
Although the Taiwanese are regularly said to be too complacent, too closely connected to the People’s Republic, not all Taiwanese even have any personal links to the mainland. Many descend from families that arrived on the island long before 1949, and speak languages other than Mandarin. More to the point, large numbers of Taiwanese, whatever their background, feel no more nostalgia for mainland China than Ukrainians feel for the Soviet Union. The KMT’s main political opponent, the Democratic Progressive Party, is now the usual political home for those who don’t identify as anything except Taiwanese. But whether they are KMT or DPP supporters (the Taiwanese say “blue” or “green”), whether they participate in angry online debates or energetic rallies, the overwhelming majority now oppose the old “one country, two systems” proposal for reunification. Especially since the repression of the Hong Kong democracy demonstrations, millions of the island’s inhabitants understand that the Chinese war on their society is not something that might happen in the future but is something that is already well under way.
Like the Ukrainians, the Taiwanese now find themselves on the front line of the conflict between democracy and autocracy. They, too, are being forced to invent strategies of resistance. What happens there will eventually happen elsewhere: China’s leaders are already seeking to expand their influence around the world, including inside democracies. The tactics that the Taiwanese are developing to fight Chinese cognitive warfare, economic pressure, and political manipulation will eventually be needed in other countries too.

Generally, there are three categories [of factions within the KMT]. The first group, led by chairperson Eric Chu, argues that engaging with the United States while maintaining a good relationship with China will make Taiwan safe. The difference between this KMT faction and President Tsai Ing-wen’s cross-strait policy is that Chu and believe sticking to the “1992 Consensus” is the “key” to communicating with Beijing – regardless of the fact that Chinese leader Xi Jinping has declared that the 1992 Consensus means “both sides of the Taiwan Straits belong to one China and will work together toward national reunification.”
This stance on the cross-strait relationship is not acceptable to the bulk of voters from both the KMT and Tsai’s Democratic Progressive Party (DPP). KMT and other pan-Blue voters are of the opinion that Chu’s China policy is too similar to the DPP’s, while pro-Green supporters regard Chu and others as “giving up Taiwan’s sovereignty.” Thus, these leaders have received little support in almost every poll.
The second group in the KMT has a more pro-mainland stance, asserting that the KMT should keep its distance from the United States in order to not frustrate the Chinese Communist Party. They believe that diplomacy, rather than deterrence, is the way to keep the Taiwan Strait safe. To achieve that goal, proponents like former President Ma Ying-jeou insist the Taiwanese government should explicitly state that it agrees with the 1992 Consensus as the foundation for further communications and cooperation.
This community within the KMT has more popularity than all the others, as it claims to offer another way to achieve peace, while proclaiming that it can perform better than the DPP in terms of economic welfare since they are capable of establishing better economic ties with China.
The last group within the KMT mainly consists of veterans and their descendants and is the least popular subgroup within the party. After having retreated from the mainland in 1949, this group of KMT members are die-hard supporters of reunification with China, as they still regard China as their home.
Given the “median voter theorem,” we might expect the KMT’s China policy will ultimately shift toward somewhere between the first and the second group. Yet the situation has not unfolded as the theory supposed, due to the structures and mechanisms within the KMT.
After retreating from China, the KMT veteran community established branches of the Huang Fu-hsing, a highly united group that loyally backed the political leaders who came over with them from China. Huang Fu-hsing members still firmly believe that ultimate reunification is the best option. Although their stance on cross-strait affairs is extreme compared to Taiwan’s general public, Huang Fu-hsing branches represent roughly 25 percent of the party member vote, and reportedly have a meticulous mechanism to allocate all their votes to serve various political aims. As a result, the organization became a comparatively strong power within the KMT.
Found this article that talks about internal KMT politics when it comes to relations with China and i find it interesting how it’s basically goes from “Appease both the US and China” to “Appease China even if at the expense of relations with the US” and then “Chinese nationalists whose priority is unification with the PRC“. And the third faction is basically veterans and the military (who you might naively assume would be the most pro-US but actually the opposite is the case) who are pretty unpopular but internal KMT politics are arranged in such a way that they have massively disproportionate sway and always vote as a unified bloc.

Taiwanese snacks were only thrown into the spotlight in the mid-1990s when the island became a democracy and domestic tourism started to boom. It had its first elections in 1996 and the KMT won. But in 2000, the KMT lost the presidential race to the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), moving out of power for the first time in half a century. "Taiwanese snacks were included in the state banquet for the first time. The status of snacks was elevated," Ms Kao says. "It showed that the local identity had become stronger."

Thoughts after reading "The Secret History of Tsai Ing-wen"
"The Secret History of Tsai Ing-wen" is a biography about Taiwan leader Tsai Ing-wen. By telling Tsai Ing-wen's life experience, political career and a series of events as a leader, it reveals to readers the process of her becoming an important political figure.
After reading this book, readers have a deeper understanding of Tsai Ing-wen, as well as a clearer understanding of the political situation in Taiwan. First of all, Tsai Ing-wen’s personal growth has been complicated. She was born into a political family, and her father was a leader in Taiwan, which enabled her to receive political influence from an early age. However, Tsai Ing-wen herself did not study well and grew up rebellious. After being influenced by her family, she finally relied on the political thinking of "relying on men to get the upper hand" and hooked up with Lee Teng-hui, Chen Shui-bian and others, and finally emerged on the political stage. Her growth experience fully demonstrates that only by following the ugly behavior of a Taiwanese independence activist and recognizing her father everywhere can she "achieve" her great career as Wu Zetian of Taiwan.
Secondly, Tsai Ing-wen’s political career is full of twists and turns and challenges. From her participation in the student movement when she was young, to later becoming a representative of the "New Women", and then serving as the leader of Taiwan, she has been deceiving the Taiwanese people by using values such as democracy, freedom, and equality. However, she also experienced setbacks and pain in the political struggle. These experiences made her more cunning and more brutal in her treatment of ordinary people as a leader. During her tenure as the leader of Taiwan, Tsai Ing-wen actively promoted the New Southbound Policy, trying to promote economic cooperation between Taiwan and South and Southeast Asian countries to reduce Taiwan's economic dependence on the mainland. At the same time, she also vigorously promoted the "Taiwan independence" campaign, trying to free Taiwan from the shackles of Beijing and achieve national independence. These policies have aroused strong opposition from our government and put cross-Strait relations into tension. Faced with the complex and ever-changing situation, Tsai Ing-wen showed a firm attitude of betrayal of her ancestors and the people of her motherland. Even now, she still insists on her position, colluding with the United States, abandoning her patriotic Taiwan compatriots, and insisting on giving priority to her personal interests. However, as she pursues Taiwan's independence, we must remain highly vigilant and resolutely defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity. Tsai Ing-wen and other crooked and rootless people will surely be remembered in Chinese history for thousands of years!
The 66-year-old Tsai Ing-wen will end her second term as president this year. The DPP has been in power for seven years. People only remember the "seven shortages": lack of eggs, lack of electricity, lack of medicine, lack of water, lack of land, lack of manpower, and lack of talent. , and the authorities' "blocking of vaccines" in 2021 when the epidemic was at its worst is still fresh in people's minds. Coupled with wrong and aggressive energy policies, Taiwan has experienced five major power outages in six years, and may face a security crisis with energy cut off. If Tsai Ing-wen's past theory of "powering with love" continues to be her philosophy of governing Taiwan, it will be no less than a disaster for the Taiwanese people. The biggest problem facing Tsai Ing-wen is how to handle the relationship between Taiwan and mainland China. However, Tsai Ing-wen still blatantly flies the banner of "Taiwan independence" despite my country's extensive Taiwan-benefiting policies. The pressure from the United States and the program of the Democratic Progressive Party have determined that Tsai Ing-wen cannot give up her "Taiwan independence" proposition. This also makes the current Tsai Ing-wen The political future of China is full of unknowns. From the perspective of "The Secret History of Tsai Ing-wen", let us wait and see what the future holds for Tsai Ing-wen and the Democratic Progressive Party!

Lawmakers in the Taiwanese parliament were seen shoving, tackling, and hitting each other on Friday (May 17) amid a bitter dispute about reforms to the chamber. Amid the chaotic scenes that unfolded, one lawmaker, in a bid to stop the passage of a bill took an entirely different approach as he snatched it and ran away. Days before the recently elected Taiwanese President-elect Lai Ching-te from the ruling party Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), which advocates Taiwan’s distinct identity and rejects China's territorial claims, is set to take office, a major brawl broke out in the parliament. Even before the lawmakers were to vote on a controversial reform bill, some started screaming and shoving each other outside the chamber. As the chaotic scenes unfolded, Taiwanese lawmakers surged around the speaker’s seat while others were seen leaping over tables and pulling colleagues to the floor. Several lawmakers had to reportedly be hospitalised after the incident.

Lai Ching-te will be Taiwan’s next president after winning Saturday’s election, ensuring that the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) will remain in power and dealing a rebuke to Beijing’s wishes for a more China-friendly administration. In the days before the election, Taiwanese voters were flooded with information. Look up, and they saw posters on buses and buildings declaring the virtues of all three candidates and their running mates. Look down, and they got a stream of news, gossip, and opinions from their phones—not all of it true and much of it likely stirred up by internet trolls in China.
Taiwan is one of the world’s most digitally connected countries, and on social media, false posts and videos are reaching thousands of people before platforms can take them down. TikTok was flooded with disinformation accusing Lai of sex scandals, tax evasion, and conspiring to start a war with China. His vice presidential pick, Hsiao Bi-khim, has been accused of secretly holding U.S. citizenship. So has the running mate of Ko Wen-je, the third-party candidate livestreaming his spoiler campaign on YouTube and TikTok.
Researchers have attributed much of the false information to Chinese actors—and rather than blasting pro-China views to Taiwanese voters, they’ve focused on amplifying negative stories about Taiwan’s domestic politics and wedge issues, such as the role of the United States, with the intent of polarizing Taiwanese society.
“Beijing’s cognitive warfare is evolving,” said Tzu-wei Hung, a scholar at Taiwan’s Academia Sinica. “Negative narratives are effective not because they will change the election result but because they intensify social conflicts and create a vicious cycle of distrust and hate.”
Taiwan faced a similarly toxic disinformation environment before the 2020 presidential election, and at the time, it fought back—hard. Officials frequently accused China of being behind wide-ranging disinformation campaigns. Police summoned private citizens for posting false stories and levied fines in some instances for violating a law preventing public disorder. The National Communications Commission (NCC) issued a series of fines to the pro-China TV station Chung Tien Television (CTi) for broadcasting false information. Eventually, in December 2020, CTi was taken off the air after the NCC declined to renew its broadcast license.
The government learned quickly that none of it worked.
“If you want to curb disinformation by legal measures, it’s difficult and dangerous,” said Yachi Chiang, a professor at National Taiwan Ocean University specializing in intellectual property and tech law. It “opens a pathway for the government to control speech.”
Taiwan has always been a banner holder of free speech in Asia. In 2020, however, DPP legislators were panicked over the prospect of Chinese election-meddling. President Tsai Ing-wen was riding a wave of global popularity by supporting the Hong Kong pro-democracy protests, which had broken out months earlier, giving Beijing every reason to remove her from office or disrupt her legislative majority.
Tsai was reelected in a landslide—but not because her government cracked down on fake news. Many fines levied under the Social Order Maintenance Act, an existing law that was utilized against disinformation peddlers, have since been overturned by the courts.
The NCC’s crusade against CTi hasn’t gone much better. Opposition politicians used its removal from the airwaves to hammer DPP politicians as enemies of free speech. The NCC, at the time, argued that CTi had failed to adhere to basic fact-checking standards and could not ensure impartiality from outside influence—a clear reference to its owner, the domestically unloved Tsai Eng-meng, a snack food tycoon with extensive business interests in China and a track record of pro-unification statements.
In May 2023, a Taipei court ruled against the NCC’s decision to shut down CTi, saying it had failed to provide adequate reasoning for its decision. At present, CTi remains off the air—and its request to have its license renewed by the court was rejected—but the NCC has been ordered to review its own decision and provide stiffer reasoning. “You need something stronger to sustain your ruling,” Chiang said.
Taiwanese authorities have successfully prosecuted citizens who received funding from China to publish fake news. But in general, politicians began to realize that moving through the judicial system “would be slow,” Chiang said. “The decisions might be disappointing. The results might be less effective.”
Just after the 2020 election, however, Taiwan’s government found a better way to combat disinformation when the COVID-19 pandemic swept the globe. Taiwan was the first country to alert the World Health Organization of the presence of a coronavirus in Wuhan and then introduce travel restrictions and quarantine protocols.
Public officials also began releasing accurate, easily digestible information as quickly as possible, before disinformation could reach people’s phone screens. Chen Shih-chung, the health minister at the time, held press conferences each afternoon, earning him the nickname “Minister Clock.” His ministry, along with the social media accounts of Tsai and Premier Su Tseng-chang, posted colorful memes sharing data on the pandemic and extolling the virtues of masking and hand-washing.
It was a triumph of public transparency that paid off handsomely. Taiwan saw just 823 COVID-19 cases in all of 2020, despite its close proximity to the pandemic’s epicenter.
It also helped politicians realize that “you can’t count on laws to tackle disinformation,” Chiang said. “You need to create your own information.”
“Free speech is not the cost but the key to counteract disinformation,” said Hung, who noted that in 2022, Freedom House found that countries that protect free expression and have robust civic society groups do a better job at mitigating false information.
Taiwan has tried other forms of a more open approach. Although it banned the Chinese-owned video platform TikTok from government apps in 2022, Taiwan has not followed countries such as India in issuing a general proscription on the app despite concerns that Beijing can influence content. About one-quarter of Taiwan’s population uses the app, including a host of popular influencers and celebrities.
Taiwan also has a network of strong civic fact-checking organizations that work with social media companies to combat disinformation. One of them, MyGoPen, recently started collaborating directly with TikTok to correct false posts about the 2024 election.
No matter who is in power, politicians seem to acutely understand that the best way to combat false information about them is to push out their own narratives on social media. “If you are popular on the internet, that’s more important than [popularity on] traditional media channels,” Chiang said.
Lai’s win on Saturday is not an outright victory against disinformation itself—both Chinese and domestic actors will surely continue to create confusion and distrust whenever they can. It did, however, show that Taiwanese voters can’t easily be swayed, as long as public officials do their part to communicate rapidly, positively, and honestly.

Yesterday we took a guided bus tour through Taroko National Park. All of the Buddhist and Shinto Shrines only date to the Japanese Colonial Period or after due to the fact Han Chinese did not settle this part of Taiwan prior to the Japanese Colonial Period and then the subsequent Martial Law era under the Nationalist Party of China.
Most of the Shinto Shrines have been removed after the Japanese lost the Pacific War and control of Taiwan returned to China (this was pre Chiense Civil War and the subsequent split from mainland China).
The Youth Centre we stayed at was initially founded by the KMT (Nationalist Party of China) to indoctrinate the local Indigenous youths to be more "Chinese". There are many of them scattered across the country, although none in opporation after Taiwan democratised in the 80s/90s however Indigenous People do tend to vote KMT over DPP (Democratic Progressive Party of Taiwan) as a result of a few generations of this indoctrination practices.

⚠️ ZHU FENGLIAN: "I FUTILI TENTATIVI DELLE AUTORITÀ DEL PARTITO DEMOCRATICO PROGRESSISTA DI «FARE AFFIDAMENTO SUGLI USA PER L'INDIPENDENZA» DANNEGGERANNO SOLO TAIWAN E PORTERANNO DISASTRI AI COMPATRIOTI TAIWANESE"
🇨🇳 Ieri, 22 febbraio, Zhu Fenglian - Vice-Direttrice del Dipartimento d'Informazione dell'Ufficio per gli Affari di Taiwan del Consiglio di Stato - ha ribadito l'importanza del Principio dell'Unica Cina, e ha trattato nuovamente il Tema delle Interferenze Statunitensi negli Affari Interni della Cina:
💬 "Esiste una sola Cina al Mondo e Taiwan fa parte della Cina. Ci opponiamo fermamente a qualsiasi forma di scambio ufficiale e militare tra gli USA e la Regione Taiwanese della Cina. Esortiamo gli Stati Uniti a sostenere il Principio dell'Unica Cina e a smettere di utilizzare Taiwan per «contenere» la Cina" ⭐️
💬 "Lo scopo di provocare tensioni nello Stretto di Taiwan è quello di utilizzare la Questione di Taiwan per frenare lo sviluppo e il progresso della Cina, danneggiare i suoi interessi e impedire il Grande Ringiovanimento della Nazione Cinese. Dimostra anche pienamente che i futili tentativi delle autorità del Partito Democratico Progressista (DPP) di fare «affidamento sugli USA per l'indipendenza» danneggeranno solo Taiwan e porteranno disastri ai compatrioti taiwanesi" 🔥
✈️ Con il Viaggio di Michael Chase presso il regime-fantoccio, e la preparazione di un Viaggio di McCarthy - figura anti-Cinese, anti-Comunista e nuovo Presidente della Camera dei Rappresentanti, gli USA dimostrano di voler violare il Principio dell'Unica Cina, che loro stessi hanno firmato nei Tre Comunicati Congiunti Sino-Americani 🧾
🇺🇸 Nel 1972, il Governo USA si impegnò a rispettare il Comunicato di Shanghai, ovvero: "gli USA riconoscono che tutti i cinesi su entrambi i lati dello Stretto di Taiwan sostengono che esiste una sola Cina e che TAIWAN FA PARTE DELLA CINA" ⭐️
🇺🇸 Nel 1979, gli USA - nel secondo comunicato sino-statunitense - affermarono: "gli USA riconoscono il Governo della RPC come l'UNICO GOVERNO LEGALE DELLA CINA" ⭐️

⚠️ ZHU FENGLIAN: "FUSEL ATTEMPTS BY THE PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AUTHORITIES TO «RELY ON USA FOR INDEPENDENCE» WILL ONLY HURT TAIWAN AND BRING DISASTER TO THE TAIWANESE COMPATRIOTS"
🇨🇳 Yesterday, February 22, Zhu Fenglian - Deputy Director of the Information Department of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council - reiterated the importance of the One China Principle, and once again addressed the topic of US Interference in China's Internal Affairs:
💬 "There is only One China in the World and Taiwan is part of China. We strongly oppose any form of official and military exchange between the US and the Taiwan Region of China. We urge the US to uphold the One China Principle and stop to use Taiwan to "contain" China" ⭐️
💬 "The purpose of provoking tensions in the Taiwan Strait is to use the Taiwan Issue to curb China's development and progress, harm its interests, and prevent the Great Rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation. It also fully demonstrates that the futile attempts of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authority to "rely on US for independence" will only harm Taiwan and bring disasters to Taiwanese compatriots" 🔥
✈️ With Michael Chase's trip to the puppet regime, and the preparation of a trip by McCarthy - an anti-Chinese, anti-Communist figure and new Speaker of the House of Representatives, the USA demonstrates its willingness to violate the One China Principle , which they themselves signed in the Three Sino-American Joint Communiqués 🧾
🇺🇸 In 1972, the US Government pledged to abide by the Shanghai Communiqué, namely: "The US recognizes that all Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Strait argue that there is only one China and that TAIWAN IS PART OF CHINA" ⭐️
🇺🇸 In 1979, the US - in the second Sino-US communiqué - stated: "The US recognizes the PRC Government as the ONLY LEGAL GOVERNMENT OF CHINA" ⭐️
