On the other hand the KMT doesn't lose anything. During his US visit didn't leave the plane if the state department didn't give him green light. Different to Chen Shui-Bian the KMT government is not much interested in the awards for democracy and human rights or a more positive world image. They only care about the economy and there hasn't been much done besides direct fly links and a bit more Chinese tourists. I wish any non government party would criticize the ROC government more on that and other issues like above.
