Stay alert to DPP's latest 'pro-independence' move
For separatists seeking "Taiwan independence", one of the biggest hurdles they have to overcome is the inseverable links between the mainland and Taiwan, be they social, cultural or historical.
That is why they are intent on distorting history, and erasing any hallmarks that bind the mainland and Taiwan together or suggest people on both sides of the Straits are descendents of the Chinese nation.
In their latest move, a "pro-independence" Democratic Progressive Party lawmaker in Taiwan has suggested removing portraits of Dr Sun Yat-sen, the founding father of modern China, from all government buildings and public schools, as is currently required by law on the island.
