Intermarriage between Mainland Chinese and Taiwanese is extremely high.
Among my Taiwanese friends, almost a third are married to Mainlanders (and even more have dated).
Even if this doesn't lead to reunification, at the very least it'll maintain the status quo.
- dirtyid 6y agoPeaceful status quo is best, I find TW friends generally sensible about cross strait relations. PRC less so. But TW nationalism / independence is good election platform, and status quo is always elections away from being disrupted. Then there's also the 2049 deadline and PRC domestic politics. Xi wants premature reunion to cement his legacy, I doubt he'll be ruling at 105 years old, hopefully he comes to his senses. That said, this was long time coming. 92 consensus facade could only work for so long. It's hard to see what the next viable framework would be.
