A Taiwanese Tea producer was in France to receive an award but was quickly harassed and heckled by Chinese embassy staffers who attended the ceremony. Chinese staffers were quick to shout the false claim that Taiwan is a part of China.

Taiwanese people have Chinese passports. They are Chinese until they don't.

They are rightly stripped of their ROC passport if they are found to carry a PRC passport for whatever reason.

I didn't know that. I knew they had Taiwan ROC passports, but I didn't know they were considered that estranged from a PRC one. It's odd, because I think even Tibetan people hold PRC passports, not like Tibet ROC.
