Great idea. I really love it. It signals that the city's KMT administration lives in an ROC ideological bubble. It does not contain a single Taiwanese/Taipei face, landmark, or artifact -- it is basically an announcement that the ROC doesn't have any link to the island and people of Taiwan, and doesn't care about them. Great work, KMT. I'm sure the DPP will have lots of fun deriding it.
