Taiwan independence forces are losing ground

 

 

 

The mainland should have a clear-cut stance on major issues. The alteration in the relative strength between the mainland and Taiwan is moving in the favor of the mainland, which will impose more pressure on the "Taiwan independence" forces. The mainland is obviously no longer just a bystander in terms of the internal politics on the island.

Taiwan has been influenced by the political resolve of the mainland to maintain the unity of the country. Any force to confront such political will risks its political future. The DPP has realized this, while it needs certain time to make adjustments.

Since the Kuomintang reassumed power, Taiwanese society has enjoyed the benefits of peace as officials have stayed far away from advocating "independence."

"Taiwan independence" is an inevitable concept as long as the state of separation between the mainland and Taiwan continues, but the mainland should impose great pressure to drive it away from the center of Taiwan politics and marginalize this idea. There are already signs that we will defeat pro-independence forces.
