- collaboration between the People's Republic of China, the Republic of China (Taiwan), Hong Kong and Macau
Isn't that saying, between the PRC, the PRC, and the PRC? Sounds like another "Mainland China"-ism. Is there a way of putting this that makes clear why this isn't a redundancy? Alai 20:26, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
- Most often the ministry/agency/department of the PRC has jurisdiction only over mainland China, and represents only the interest of mainland China. (There is no such thing as a government of mainland China, or ministry of mainland China.) There was a meeting last month among the health secretaries of the PRC, Hong Kong and Macao, and the meeting was called "Joint Meeting of Senior Health Officials of the Mainland, Hong Kong and Macao". — Instantnood 20:59, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

- I guess something like that was the case. As I say, this could surely (and should) be expressed much more clearly. i.e., which agencies/etc are collaborating, rather than which political entities. Alai 21:17, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

- Agree it's better to talk about the agencies. (Btw, would you say the Government of the UK and the Government of the UK and the Government of the UK and the Government of the UK and the Government of the UK and the Government of the UK and the Government of the UK are members of the British-Irish Council? :-D ) — Instantnood 21:32, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

- Eh, no, and for reasons that should be fairly obvious. Several of its constituents are not even in the UK, much less identical with the government of the UK. Alai 23:12, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
