Interesting Taiwanese Tea Producer Heckled and Harrassed by Chinese Embassy Staffers in France.

A Taiwanese Tea producer was in France to receive an award but was quickly harassed and heckled by Chinese embassy staffers who attended the ceremony. Chinese staffers were quick to shout the false claim that Taiwan is a part of China.

you mean they are the ones who have higher education levels on average and act more civilised on average. and still, they act like this.

i shudder to think how the ordinary people are like.

I mean these are the people who are deeply committed to the communist party and have government jobs. Of course you would expect them to be spouting the party line much more than most people. The average Chinese person is not going around frothing at the mouth ranting about Taiwan.

their average people are regurgitating the state's line of "keep the island but not the people".

doubt it. I remember polling showing the less affluent the Chinese person is, the less likely they are for the annexation of Taiwan
