🇹🇼 Passport Often Misidentified Internationally? Analyzing the Root Cause and Solution to the Two-Chinas Controversy: Republic of China (Taiwan Province) vs. People's Republic of China

This article discusses incidents where the Republic of China (ROC) passport is mistaken for the People's Republic of China (PRC) passport internationally, leading to difficulties. The author argues that the issue can be resolved by clearly explaining that 'Republic of China' and 'People's Republic of China' are two different countries, similar to North and South Korea. Conversely, the author believes that Taiwan independence advocates constantly 'self-dwarf' the ROC's international visibility. The inability to enter the UN is due to non-member status, not an issue with the passport itself. We should enhance our strength rather than constantly retreating and changing names.
