Starbuck's Undermining of Taiwan's Sovereignty

Response from Starbucks Coffee Company - Case # 7098249

Hello Leo,
 
Thank you so much for taking the time to write to us.
 
As you mentioned in your email, Taiwan was previously labeled "Taiwan, Province of China" on the store locator system on Starbucks.com in deference to International naming conventions. Starbucks prefers not to take a position on political issues, however the system has been adjusted and the store locator is now labeled "Taiwan."  We apologize for any frustration this may have caused you.

The KMT nominated 10 council speakers and eight were elected. In vice speaker elections, the party nominated eight and five were elected.
