Independence advocates protest KMT ‘collaborators’By Jason Pan / Staff reporterTaiwan independence advocates protested in Taipei yesterday, accusing leading Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) members of collaborating with China to destroy Taiwan from within. Taiwan Republic Office director Chilly Chen (陳峻涵) criticized top KMT officials for “hanging on to the myth” of the so-called “1992 consensus” and the “one China” concept. Taiwan Republic Office director Chilly Chen, front, with microphone, speaks at a protest yesterday outside the TVBS Media building in Taipei’s Neihu District, where the four candidates in the election for the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) chairperson were holding a televised policy debate. Their ... words and actions are designed to tear apart Taiwan’s social cohesion and subvert our national unity,” Chen said. The protesters shouted slogans as each of the four KMT candidates arrived, namely incumbent KMT Chairman Johnny Chiang (江啟臣), former New Taipei City mayor Eric Chu (朱立倫), former Changhua County commissioner Cho Po-yuan (卓伯源) and Sun Yat-sen School president Chang Ya-chung (張亞中).
