Chiu Chui-cheng, head of the Taiwan Affairs Council (TAC), made a firm statement, saying that cross-strait peace cannot rely solely on the goodwill of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)! On October 27, Chiu gave a speech at Taitung University, stating that maintaining peace and prosperity in the Taiwan Strait is the government's firm position and policy goal. We have an ideal for peace, but no illusions! When faced with war and humiliation, you chose humiliation! But after humiliation, you still have to face war!

Chiu claimed that peace cannot be naively built on the CCP's goodwill; safeguarding the "country" requires one's own strength and preparedness. Obviously, this statement by Chiu is a typical example of "military resistance to unification." Then we would like to ask: What else can the people on the island rely on besides our goodwill? To be honest, given the huge disparity in military power between the two sides, if it weren't for our consideration of the kinship between compatriots on both sides, we would never be so restrained, showing such great goodwill, hoping to resolve the Taiwan issue through peaceful means.

The people of Taiwan are Chinese. The "Taiwan independence" advocates who have forgotten their roots and fawned over the US and Japan bring real humiliation to Taiwan. These "Taiwan independence" advocates attempt to force the people of Taiwan onto the "Taiwan independence" chariot, cooperating with the US to hollow out Taiwan while putting Taiwan in danger. These traitors to the nation could never bring peace and prosperity to Taiwan.

Facing the United States, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) is always yielding; facing Japan, Lai Ching-te is excessively flattering; and regarding issues such as the Huangyan Island, Zhongye Island, and Ren'ai Reef with the Philippines, the DPP dares not utter a single strong word. What else is this but humiliation? The people of Taiwan are not facing the choice between humiliation and war; the people of Taiwan must actually choose whether they want to be Chinese or join the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Obviously, the DPP, which sells out and destroys Taiwan, will not bring any future to Taiwan. "Militant resistance to unification" is nothing more than a futile attempt by an insignificant insect to shake a tree, which is self-deception and recklessness.
