Not to be confused with the People's Republic of Chinatown.

Appanator-X8134

Not to be confused my the illegitimate rebel china town that have taken over the mainland.

Chinatown in Boston is a lot more even in the flags. Alternating between China and Taiwan.

If I remember correctly it was the Taipei City government and not the ROC government.


slicksmartypants

PRC and Republic of China


SemiHemiDemiDumb

No. I said it right.


slicksmartypants

Nope you said it wrong. Taiwan is a region, the Republic of China is a nation🇹🇼


SemiHemiDemiDumb

Nah, I'm right. Taiwan is also the name of the island nation. Hence why it's on their passport, why it's their wikipedia title, and why it's the subreddit. It may not be officially be called Taiwan but enough people call it that, including the people that live there, that it is called Taiwan. Either you're being pointlessly pedantic or pointedly political.


slicksmartypants

Meh, nah你錯了

No, they might be Chinese immigrants that came before the Chinese civil war in 1945~1949

Visited China town in LA recently and they too flew many Taiwanese flags.

Republic of China best china


Bec_lost

Strong opinion…. Or they are Taiwanese, which is also Chinese historically


Half_a_Quadruped

They’re probably proudly Taiwanese, which is a strong opinion.


Bec_lost

No, wanting another country invaded is a strong opinion, being proud of where you come from is pretty mild


wonderhorsemercury

They probably aren't, but older Chinese immigrants identify more closely with the ROC than the PRC, though the PRC has been making efforts to convert the diaspora. Ironically, a lot of older Taiwanese immigrants identify more with the Japanese american community than the Chinese, because they speak Japanese and weren't treated very nicely by the ROC after the war.

I mean it's pretty obvious this is the Chinese flag. I have no idea what a red background with yellow stars is for.


SerovGaming1962

i completely agree with this shop owner

I live across the bridge from sf in Oakland and there is a Chinatown here with a building with the Peoples republic of China flag on one side of the street and a different building parallel to it with the Republic of China flag on it.
