Yes, but aren't you now even more positively inclined towards "reunification"? /s

Oh man. It just pisses us off even more. I def not going to vote for the KMTs. The front runner is a douche for the KMTs.

I am very sorry you all are living like that, it would drive me mad.

It's worse right now because the next Taiwan election is coming up soon and they want to intimidate us into voting for the KMT faction which wants to merge into the CCP.

Real question. Does Tiwan in average care for English speaking tourists? Because I’d love to bring my family. I have always wanted to go to china too, but, yeah, maybe not.

It does, you will feel very welcome there. In Taipei, English is no problem at all

If you come here, you will almost be treated like a celebrity. Almost everyone speaks English or tries extremely hard to communicate with you. If you have kids, it's a very kid friendly country. They value kids welfare above all. So you will find many places are geared towards family and moms and kids.

If you come here and visit. Feel free to DM me. I'll give you some pointers!
