I know several who have. A few of them have been forumosa members.
Of course you not being knowledgable about these things is not surprising. So much of the discourse you offer on threads here has been proven to have a very limited perspective.
You remind me of another forum member who goes into threads to talk about the USA when the threads have nothing to do with the USA.
If you want to become a citizen of Taiwan, the following may offer information that will be helpful to you:
RESIDENCE:
Many foreigners in Taiwan have residence in the form of an Alien Residence Card. This green colored card allows you to legally stay in Taiwan based on the fact that you have a legal job (employer is indicated on the card) or that you are married to a local.
CITIZENSHIP:
To be a citizen of Taiwan means that you have an actual ROC ID card. With this, you can get phone number…
I said you’d be hard pressed.
And what do you care? You’re not Australian.
He claims to have naturalized to ROC Chinese. I’m just going on what he said.
There are more than 80,000 Americans in Taiwan on any given day…
And to expatriate isn’t the same as naturalization. Hence the word “expatriate “
And there’s no way in hell you’re gonna convince anyone that an ROC Chinese passport is more valuable than an American passport…
Yes, and?
No one is trying to. But not everyone wants to be an American.
I agree but one has to ask why people are giving it up for an ROC one. There’s maybe something I’m missing and I started another thread
Probably a question for your countrymen but I would hazard a guess they have 0 plans to ever return to the US and they want to increase their rights in the place they live
Let’s say that’s true - life is still long. Personally I had no intention of returning stateside ever…and yet…
Also there are hundreds of guns pointed at the island of Taiwan. Nothing like a war zone to make people think twice about staying.
One benefit again from being American is that the marines would come for us should poop hit the fan. Maybe not right away haha buuut
And if you’re ROC you’ll prolly have to stick around and fight the commies. Houzzah!
Australians are the luckiest people alive… because they aren’t Americans.
Many Americans will pretend to be Canadians when traveling abroad.
Well I wasn’t hard pressed. You made a comment and you were wrong yet again.
The generic “you”. Not you specifically lol.
Jeez we fighting over semantics?
What’s with all the roadblocks…just keep the conversation going…
The disingenuous replies…yikes

Oh, lucky Australia, more things that want to kill them!
The Sydney funnel-web spider has extremely dangerous venom, but according to a new study this spider is actually three different species — one of which, the "Newcastle big boy," is much larger.
I used to keep one as a pet. They are quite friendly really.
