You forget clause to prohibit constitutional amendment.
Keep the Three Principles, the anthem, and the five branches of government.
Everything else fair game.
Not knowledgeable about either, I see.
What do the Examination Yuan and the Control Yuan actually do, if anything?
Control Yuan = GAO
Exam= develop and administer civil service exams
That kind of thought is laughable. The first principle is Chinese Nationalism, which has been oppressive force walking over Taiwanese. The second is about a false democratic system structured to have KMT one-party system. As for the third one, it supports economic in the borderline between communism and socialism. Mind that Sun Yatsen was a big fan of Lenin.
Which is the basis for many of the skewed laws that discriminate against foreigners in both Taiwan and China.

That is indeed so, both racial and institutional discrimination–in which Chinese nationalists fleeing to Taiwan in 1949 think they are superior than all other human beings; furthermore, their descendants should also have the inherent right to walk over other human beings.
On one hand, I think Republic of Taiwan should not have any nationalism built into its constitution. On the other, there is a challenging question: who has the right or privilege to say what kind of Republic of Taiwan they want?
To me, if someone is born in Taiwan proper and other islands associated with Taiwan, which are not administered by any sovereign nations, has the right–as long as he or she pledge allegiance to the independence, liberty, and security of Taiwan sovereignty.
The birthplace right would exclude ROC’s residual territories: Kinmen, Matsu, and Japan’s sovereign territory: Kinkaseki.

Which bureaucratic positions are chosen by the civil service exam?
Those exams are one of the most interesting parts of Chinese history.
Full answer to your question demands full expertise, which I don’t have. Nevertheless, I try to gather what I know.
Except political appointees (政務人員), for every government position, passing a related official exam (公職考試) is a requirement.
The most lowest level is ‘Common Exam (普考)’. Those that work on your household certificate (戶籍謄本) in the district office take it. (Elder that offers a tea for you in the lobby is a volunteer.)
‘Special Exam 特考’ is for higher and professional positions , like judges, police, train conductors …. and many others. If you want to work for the post office, you take one too (called Post office special exam 郵政特考).
State-controlled businesses have their own employment exams.

Does this mean you’d want to ban the labour movement too? Would you want to ban workers from forming unions and pushing for better worker’s rights, such as longer holidays and more paternity leave? This is all socialism. Even if you don’t agree with it, it seems weird to want to ban it, especially if you love freedom and hate authoritarianism.
No. Employees bargaining for better benefits with their employers falls into the realm of free market economy, or free exchange of goods and services. It is not communism, despite the fact that classical marxists loved to classify labours as a class as a tool.
However no employers are obliged to consent to collective bargaining, since no two employees perform and deserve the same.
