Its the people of today. All this new Taiwanese Identity is false as its very existance is because certain Taiwanese felt/feel a new identity needed to be invented to erase the current identity which is "tainted" with Chinese. However, Chinese is the substrata of Taiwanese - It can not be erased, the same as Chiang Kai shek could not erase the Taiwanese, Visa Versa applies, The Taiwanese cannot erase the Chinese.eightyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13049413957620547690noreply@blogger.com
