The Taiwanese are also rather patriotic when they are guided in the right direction. During the 50 some years Taiwan was a Japanese colony, the Taiwanese were one of the most industrious subjects throughout the Japanese Empire.
Many were educated in Japanese Universities and led industries that were sprouting in Chosen (Korea), Taiwanese actively enlisted in the Imperial Army as well as the Imperial Navy, many even were active participants in the Imperial Navy's Office of Naval Intelligence , serving as attaches throughout China, Asia.
The Taiwanese were the model subjects of the Japanese Empire and the colony was one of the most developed innEast Asia. Taiwanese are adaptable to any environment ; be it under Japan , or under the KMT or who knows someday under the CPC.
The point is this; don't underestimate the possibility of Taiwan cooperating and integrating with the CPC.
