I was born stateless overseas to Malaysian parents in 1960s. They did not register my birth with Malaysia government and as a result i was born stateless and today still stateless.
Do I have a chance to apply for Taiwan passport?
Are you actually in Taiwan now?
Did your parents emigrate from China? Since 2002, it is no longer possible to obtain a ROC passport through Chinese ethnicity alone. The applicant has the burden of showing descent from a ROC national.

wow that’s sad
let’s start from the beginning, shall we.
where exactly born overseas (country, city)?
what form of IDs do you currently have on yourself that are up to date?
where do you live now? (if Taiwan, how did you get here?)
You offer very little info to help out.
I live in Miri, Sarawak, Malaysia. I am the permanent resident of Malaysia. I don’t have passport. My parents were born in Malaysia. My grand parents were born in China.
So your parents have Chinese or Malaysian passports?

What documents can you use to prove your grandparents’ Chinese nationality? Were you born before or after 1980?
If your grandfather had documents proving he was a Chinese citizen before 1949, then you could do it. The passport he used to travel to Malaysia, for instance, would be perfect.
Please read the first post of the discussion, it says “born in the 60s”.
