A little-mentioned chapter in Taiwanese history is how closely alligned the TI movement was with communism back in the day. After 227, independence advocates were cozying up to Mao and the Communist Party in the hopes of kicking out the KMT. Then, until Chen Shui-bian was elected, the KMT and CPC were bitter enemies. Interesting how things reallign.

Actual news article of the ROC establishing a consulate general in Taipei back on April 7th, 1931. From Taiwan Ichi Nichi Shinpō
Great find! I wish it were a little clearer so I could (try to) decode the text. But it’s clear that at the time, Taiwan was firmly Japanese and it didn’t even seem to be a sensitive issue.
for some reason I can’t connect to the Taiwan ichi nichi sinpo database today, so I can’t capture a screenshot myself. So I had to resort to gimp.
Still not very clear, but this is what I can make out of it:
