One of the benefits of a free democratic society is that you can ask; and people vote according to their preferences. A recent study suggests ~13% of the public support unification with China: https://www.tpof.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20250214-TPO... .

And from what I've seen of the ROC parliament, it is also an embarrassment to their own people

That or a remarkably flexible sense of morality, coupled with a supine nature and a total lack of balls.
