Response from Starbucks Coffee Company - Case # 7097430

Sunday, 05 July 2009 11:01 Allison F. Letters For Taiwan - Starbuck's Undermining of Taiwan's Sovereignty

Hello,
 
Thank you so much for taking the time to write to us.
 
Taiwan was previously labeled "Taiwan, Province of China" on the store locator system on Starbucks.com in deference to International naming conventions. Because Starbucks takes no position on political issues, the system has been adjusted and the store locator is now labeled "Taiwan."
 
If you have any further questions or concerns that I was unable to address, please feel free to let me know. 
 
Thanks again,
 
Allison F.
Customer Relations

Monday through Friday, 5AM to 6PM (PST)

DHARAMSHALA, September 26: Jailed Tibetan monk Lama Jigme (aka Labrang Jigme, Jigme Gyatso and Akhu Jigme) has told Chinese police guards, in the presence of his brother, that he will gladly accept, even the death sentence, if found guilty.

“If you think that I am a criminal, send me to court for a trial. If I really committed a crime, well then I will gladly accept my sentence, even if it is the death sentence,” Lama Jigme was quoted as saying by his elder brother Sonam Tsering in an oral testimony published by prominent Tibetan blogger Woeser on August 12.
