An American Professor's Insightful Analysis on the ROC and the Taiwan Question

A conversation between an American professor and a Taiwan-independence-supporting Taiwanese student named William, discussing Taiwan's international position. The professor points out that William holding a 'Republic of China' passport proves his country actually exists, questioning why he thinks it's unrecognized, and emphasizing that international relations cannot be handled emotionally. The professor uses a name-change analogy to criticize changing the country's name as 'a big joke,' and suggests Taiwan should stop 'playing the name-changing game,' unite first, consolidate resources, and enhance its capabilities before it can have real negotiating power.
