An Overview of Taiwan's Status and the Functioning of the Universe
Issac Newton cast aside the premise that "The Earth is at the center of the universe," and was then able to make much progress in his astronomical studies. In a similar fashion, we should cast aside the premise that "Taiwan is an independent sovereign nation, and its name is the Republic of China." Only then will we be able to find the proper direction for Taiwan's future development.

Passports Carried by Taiwanese People: ILLEGAL since 1979?
The recent White House press briefing on Taiwan passport matters left many issues unresolved. Thankfully, more and more news reporters are becoming aware of the seriousness of this issue, and then pressing US Executive Branch officials for further explanations.
If the legal status of Taiwan is "unresolved," as US officials continually state, where is the legal basis for native Taiwanese people to be holding Republic of China passports that identify them as having "ROC nationality" ? Isn't such an arrangement a direct violation of the One China Policy?
Should US officials look more carefully at the post-war San Francisco Peace Treaty for legal guidance on this issue?
Increasing numbers of reporters are beginning to investigate all aspects of this Taiwan passport problem. It is expected that more and more reportage will appear in the United States and international news media in the election year of 2016.

San Francisco Peace Treaty, USMG, and Taiwan

San Francisco Peace Treaty, USMG, and Taiwan
According to Article 4(b) of the San Francisco Peace Treaty of April 28, 1952, the dispositions of both the Ryukyus and Taiwan (which were "Japanese property") are subject to the directives of the United States Military Government (USMG).
Based on the specifications in the treaty, the Ryukyus were formally elevated to the status of United Nations Trusteeship, while continuing under the jurisdiction of USMG.
For Taiwan however, with no formal trusteeship agreement in place, a correct description of Taiwan's international legal status appears to be "quasi-trusteeship under USMG."
In the mid-1950s, the United States began returning various island groups in the Ryukyu island chain to Japan. The last island group was returned effective May 15, 1972, and USMG jurisdiction over the Ryukyus formally ceased on this date, as announced by US President Nixon.
So, when was the end of USMG jurisdiction over Taiwan? If no such announcement has ever been made, doesn't that mean Taiwan is an overseas territory of the USA??
Our webpage examines the content of the San Francisco Peace Treaty in detail, to see what secrets it holds. Please visit the webpage, and download the accompanying Powerpoint file --

Taiwan Perspectives (3): Lessons from the War of 1812
Many people who research and investigate territorial issues are in fact unable to offer a clear explanation regarding the difference between having "sovereignty over territory" with merely having "jurisdiction over territory," and vice versa. As we know, many essays on the internet and videos on YouTube try to explain the concept of "sovereignty" in an understandable fashion, but few succeed. As a result, the confusion over "jurisdiction" and "sovereignty" continues on, and many government officials make important political decisions based on their inadequate knowledge of these subjects. Looking at the current situation in Southeast Asia, particularly notable is that an accurate explanation of why the Republic of China on Taiwan is regarded a non sovereign nation is for the most part unavailable in encyclopedias or other reference materials in leading libraries, or even on the internet. Adding to the overall disorientation on this issue is the fact that a full clarification is also unavailable from any official sources, such as the officers in the executive departments of leading world nations, the Asian experts in prominent think-tanks, or the Office of Legal Affairs of the United Nations.
Surprisingly, what the majority of government officials, university academics, and UN staff members, etc. completely overlook are the similarities between the situations of the War of 1812 (as discussed in this video), and the situation of the 1898 Spanish American War cessions (as discussed in the second video of this series), with the situation of Taiwan beginning in 1945. A detailed analysis of the historical and legal situations in 1812 and 1898 provides an excellent framework whereby the "non sovereign" status of Taiwan can be derived, and the parameters of that "non sovereign" status can be dissected.
In summary, this series of TAIWAN PERSPECTIVES videos is one which every person interested in the USA - PRC - Taiwan triangular relationship should watch (and re-watch), as well as recommend to their friends, associates, teachers, professors, debating club members, and representatives in Congress.

Understanding the One China Policy
Webpage -- http://www.twclarify.com/taiwan/pages/oneChina/index.html
Many essays on the internet and videos on YouTube try to explain the One China Policy in an understandable fashion, but few succeed. As a result, the confusion over this issue expands with every passing day. Repeated calls on the State Dept. to explain the underlying principles regarding the adoption this Policy and the U.S. Executive Branch's insistence on upholding it, have only been met with muffled silence.
However, with the release of this video, the truth can now be brought to light, and the real reasons for the existence of this Policy can be illuminated. After watching this video, all members of the public will comprehend the true legal and historical basis for the One China Policy. At the same time, everyone will finally be able to understand that this Policy is not likely to change in the near future.
In summary, this is a video which every person interested in the USA - PRC - Taiwan triangular relationship should watch, as well as recommend to their friends, associates, teachers, professors, debating club members, and representatives in Congress.
