China removes Taiwan from textbooks

[dArKeR]

China has been deleting references to Taiwan in textbooks used by Taiwanese schools in China, confusing students about their national identity, lawmakers said yesterday.

Showing textbooks collected from the schools, Taiwan Solidarity Union (TSU) Legislator Lo Chih-ming (羅志明) pointed out that any words referring to the "Republic of China ," "New Taiwan dollar," "ROC Constitution" or illustrations such as the ROC's national flag or emblem in the books had been erased or covered up.

"In other words, the ROC does not, and cannot exist, in the textbooks that Taiwanese businessmen's children use," Lo said.
