China Post: DPP blasts Ma's China proposal as trashing Taiwan's
The opposition camp yesterday blasted President Ma Ying-jeou for what they believed to be his proposal to adopt China's simplified Chinese characters in Taiwan.
Critics from the Democratic Progressive Party accused Ma of trashing the country's culture while kowtowing to China.
But the Presidential Office clarified that Ma only meant to urge people from China to learn the traditional Chinese characters used in Taiwan.
... yeah, right
anyway, it is a question that needs confronting
especially if the pro-unificationists are successful
a huge can of worms ... VftH's only observation for now is that any change in language should come from the bottom up not the top down
