China's Puppet President In Taiwan Outlaws Taiwanese Flag

Temporarily.  Although he's only 6 months into his term, so he's still got plenty of time.  From Thursday's Taipei Times:

No national symbol of the ROC was allowed [in Taiwan] where [China's negotiator] and his delegation might see it. National flags, a representation of national sovereignty, were seized by police from protesters and passers-by alike. People waving the five-starred PRC flag, however, were left alone.  [emphasis added]

Since Taiwan's President Ma Ying-jeou obviously prefers the flag of Communist China to that of his own country, I suggest Taiwanese indulge him next time.  Leave those ROC flags at home, and go ahead and bring Ma's beloved PRC flags instead. 

(Just don't forget to carry a Bic lighter as well.)

Here's a good video showing the ripping away of ROC flags and the protection of PRC flags:

This is worthy of a short post, I think.

Thanks Tim.
