China released a white paper on the Taiwan question on Wednesday. It outlines China's goal as peaceful reunification, while reserving the right to use all necessary measures. It also highlights the past four decades of economic development and increased cross-strait exchanges as the foundation for reunification. The White Paper named the ruling Democratic Progressive Party in Taiwan as the force stoking tensions in cross-strait relations. What do people in Taiwan think? Are they confident of reunification? Liu Xin sat down for an exclusive interview with Hung Hsiu-Chu, Former Chairperson of the Chinese Kuomintang Party and chairman of the Chinese Cyan Geese Peace Education Foundation.

The move was criticized as a way to bypass review of the Legislature."What we want to do is to achieve the biggest denominator for all overseas Taiwanese compatriots," said Cheng Tung-hsing, OCAC vice chairman and spokesperson. "There are Taiwanese independence groups who simply can't stand the word Chinese, and there are others who can't accept the name Overseas Taiwanese Affairs Council."In fact, the government has already changed the English names of various overseas offices as part of its de-sinicization campaign. What used to be the Chinese Cultural Center in places throughout the United States are now the Cultural Center of TECO (Taipei Economic and Cultural Office).Here in Taiwan, the government has also changed names of agencies in which it has a stake, without telling the public about it.Chinese Television System, for example, is now part of the Taiwan Broadcasting System group."The Legislature didn't even know about the name change," said Kuomintang lawmaker Hung Hsiu-chu, member of the Legislature's Education Committee. "We'll ask for a clear explanation from these people when we review their budget next time."
