Answer: Knowledge of Taiwan

1. What is your perception of the material living standards of Taiwanese? developed? Already behind the other side? Backcountry?

A stable developed economy, rich in wealth for the people, and infrastructure that is not new enough but convenient and durable.

2. What is your view on the current state of democracy in Taiwan? Do you think Taiwan is a positive example of "a Chinese democratic society can succeed"? Why?

A noisy evolving democratic society. In fact, democracy as a form of social organization has been in the process of development, and naturally it will also be challenged. As a Chinese democratic society, Taiwan is of course a positive example.

3. Suppose you were born as a Taiwanese, would you support reunification with the other side? If so, is it "counterattacking the mainland" or "unification by the People's Republic of China"? Why do you think if you were born Taiwanese, why would you support/oppose reunification?

Having been in contact with the local people in Taiwan for a few days, the impression is that they are a relatively friendly and relatively conservative group of people who pay more attention to daily life and do not want their way of life to be disturbed. Therefore, this will also become the starting point for Taiwanese to make choices...

4. Assuming you are a Taiwanese, what would your position be on (1) same-sex marriage (2) nuclear power generation (3) reverse osmosis/proxy and other laws to defend against the other side/foreign interference in Taiwanese politics?

The starting point of the same question is to respect issues that do not interfere with your daily life, and to form your own position with the goal of social development and progress.

5. Do you have any confusion about Taiwanese people/situation/culture?

When traveling in Taiwan, I was very curious about Taiwan's palace culture. I wonder how such a palace culture was formed in the process of Taiwan's social development?

Finally, I want to say to the Taiwanese netizens who asked the question: The secret of freedom is courage, and the price of freedom is eternal vigilance. In any case, understand and respect your choice. Bless Taiwan.
