From Taiwan's Kinmen islands to look at Xiamen city in Chinese mainland, 1.8km, slogan "One country, two systems" clearly seen

China also didn't take over Hong kong and Macao until the leases ran out, We are not foolhardy people like Americans, we calculate when it's the best time to do something, but we don't give up our rights to do them.

LOL! Taiwan and that island have nothing to do with leases.

It's about Mao not being able to finish his revolution. Some people rejected his rule and fortified themselves on an island that the mainland military simply couldn't take back no matter how many times they tried. Taiwan has been thumbing their noses and "farting in your general direction" for 70+ years.

As long as Taiwan is republic of China, all is fine with me.
