Political Parties in Taiwan

The major Pan-China parties:

• Kuomintang
• New Party
• People First Party (No flag, as I aware of and as noted in the party's constitution. Party colours are Orange and Blue.)

The latter two are factions of the Kuomintang split during the Lee Teng Hui era.

Pro-Independence Parties:

• Democratic Progressive Party
• Taiwan Independence Party
• Taiwan Solidarity Union

In the AOL news today, there were pictures taken of a rally in Taipei where over 100,000 persons demanded a name change from REPUBLIC OF CHINA to TAIWAN. They were carrying a huge flag with them.

This can not be a Taiwanese (proposed) national flag. It's a political rally banner for foreign press pictures. Unless the Taiwanese would change also the national language to English.
