It's good that you ask the question that most of people get information from English media. Taiwan as many people mentioned here is a democracy. It has freedom of speech. So it's easy to get the information from the source inside Taiwan. Long story short: It's very mixed. There are people want to re-unit with China and even expect the mainland using military means. Pro-independence group is much larger but majority like to keep the existing status while tend to independence. Here are some media that show views against Western perception which seems originated from MSM . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8t6ep7auypk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8t6ep7auypk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvACcb9qrt4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvACcb9qrt4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UEz3CyD1ME https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UEz3CyD1ME There are much more. But again as I mention they are minority (Claim: I'm not saying that MSM is trusted by Western audience. On the contrary a lot of people especially young generation don't trust or even disdain MSM. However the Taiwan issue is an exception.）
