The issue of Taiwanese VS Chinese is complex to say the least. Me, being a mixture of Taiwanese & Chinese; i must express my view as a second generation "Chinese".

i think the debate will rage on as long as China and Taiwan has a separate identity. As the article had correctly pointed out, most of the inhabitant are of Chinese decent, so why the identity confusion? the fact that Communism is practised in China does not mean that all Chinese are Communist? We all once had a comman identity, the proud Chinese Nation, the peaceful, cultural Middle Kindom!

Let us look beyond the current political difference, they will always be different, let us rather work on formulating a comman identity once again.

[edit] POV issues

The article currently reads like one that favors Taiwan independence. It does not represent in a balanced way the reunification side. Strong citations, which are glaringly absent, would be needed for the assertion that the majority of "Taiwanese" are the descendants of aborigines and ethnic Han. Ironically, the true aborigines are some of the strongest supporters of the pan-blue coalition these days.Ngchen (talk) 02:22, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
