@wherestip: I don't see any problem at all. We have a lot of problems having a common way to say thing in a great variety of cultures included in a vague idea of the Chinese identity in East and South East Asia. You see, I don't have any problem to identify myself as a Chinese from Taiwan, in the way as a Chinese from Singapore or somewhere else would do. As to the new coined terms, there are indeed a lot of nonsense, but they are accepted widely nowadays and we don't have a choice other than picking them up as they "are." |
