Hsiao's ancestry and DPP policies?

While I'm willing to concede that Hsiao's support of the Taiwan localization movement is relevant to a bio article about her, I object to the inclusion of some characterization of her being "not Taiwanese" (in the first sentence, the article says she was born to a Taiwanese mother), and that whether or not it's even relevant to the article to suggest being only half Taiwanese is contrary to DPP policies (I'd also challenge the accuracy of that claim). To me, that last bit sounds like it's just trying to smear her, her ancestry, and smear the DPP - certainly not a NPOV, and not relevant to a bio article. Even if it is determined to be relevant by others, I'd still like to see a source cited to back up those claims. --Folic Acid 12:10, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The way it's phrased is certainly non-neutral and an inaccurate characterization of DPP multiethnic policy to boot ([1], see "Solving Taiwan’s Ethnic Conflict", 2004-08-20). Now regardless of what you think the result of that has been, it certainly isn't an endorsement of an exclusion policy. Discussion on the actual effects of that belong on a seperate article. Addtionally, the fact that she is of mixed ethnicity and a DPP member is already mentioned in the first couple of sentences. -Loren 16:44, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It should be mentioned that the DPP supports the Taiwan localization meaning Taiwanese that came from China hundreds of years ago. They dont really like the new migrants such as Mainlanders or mixed races. They dont even like the Hakka and aborgines too much, let alone mixed races. A point should be raised that she is mixed race and supports the DPP, further..saying that the DPP is not very accepting of other groups. TingMing 00:57, 19 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
