English on road signs conference

I am new to this forum. I am an American who lives in Taichung, or is it Taijhong, or Taizhong, I am confused.

Although I support Taiwan’s independence, Taiwan really should adopt the Hanyu Pinyin system and use it for all of the signs. I have seen the same place spelt 3, 4 or more different ways. I usually just read the Chinese on the signs, but I know that isn’t an option for fellow foreigners who can’t read Chinese.
