DPP Wins in Taiwan

January 16, 2016 by Mr. Allen Leave a Comment

The writing has been on the wall for KMT's chances in the election this time around for some time.  As I had discussed earlier, the battle between DPP and KMT in the 2016 election is not about independence vs. status quo as it had been 8 years back when Taiwan elected Ma Ying-jeou, or 16 years ago when Taiwan elected Chen Shui-Bian.  That battle had been won long ago, with this … [Read more...] about DPP Wins in Taiwan

Tourists from mainland China aren't the only ones taking advantage of direct cross-strait flights.  Taiwanese politicians from the DPP, known for its traditional insistence on Taiwanese independence, are also beginning to take trips to the mainland.  Yunlin county commissioner Su Zhifen, a member of the DPP, is leading a trade commission to Beijing.  This article from the … [Read more...] about In Taiwan, DPP politicians get more familiar with the mainland
