Commentary on Chen Shi-chung's Statement: Choose Your Nationality, Bear the Consequences - Questioning Pro-Japan Taiwan Independence Supporters' Loyalty to ROC Citizenship
This article interprets Central Epidemic Command Center Commander Chen Shi-chung's statement 'choose your nationality, bear its consequences' as a warning to pro-Japan Taiwan independence supporters. The article reviews Taiwan's history under Japanese military occupation during the Japanese rule period, emphasizing that after the Republic of China's victory in WWII, those who chose to remain and acquire ROC citizenship should not engage in any 'elbows bent outward' behavior, implying such actions constitute treason.
Republic of China Central Epidemic Command Center Commander Chen Shi-chung once said:
“Once you’ve chosen your nationality, you must bear its consequences.”
Chen Shi-chung’s statement is truly spot-on. Did those pro-Japan Taiwan independence imperial subjects hear what Chen said?
Although over a century ago, Japan with ill intentions seized Taiwan, and through military force occupied Taiwan for nearly fifty years during the Japanese rule period, causing countless tragedies and bloodshed.
But following the Republic of China’s victory in WWII and Japan’s surrender returning Taiwan, those who didn’t choose to evacuate with Japan subsequently chose Republic of China citizenship, remaining on Taiwan Island and the Penghu Archipelago. You absolutely must never again engage in the base behavior of traitors with elbows bent outward.
