Anyway I don't think it is a good idea to get into such semantics. It just lends legitimacy to the KMT's One China fantasy that undermines the rights and sovereignty of 23 million Taiwanese people. cfimages, I think the message coming from the students was a little confusing. On the one hand they were saying the protest would come to an end, but then they continued to maintain their presence at Freedom Square. I spoke to a student there yesterday (12/10) and he said they were packing up and looking for an office space to continue their work. However, they were forcibly evicted by the police in the early hours of this morning (12/11). Jens, I am not sure if your comment is serious or you are just posing the questions rhetorically.

Did the Strawberries change their plans? I was actually told by one of them on Saturday morning that Sunday would be their last day. Good report. Did the Strawberries change their plans?

As Chinese nationals (the ROC <em>does</em> claim Tibet, doesn't it?), can't they just get a household registration? Why asylum?
