Response from Starbucks Coffee Company

Sunday, 05 July 2009 10:52 Shania Letters For Taiwan - Starbuck's Undermining of Taiwan's Sovereignty

Dear Leo,

Thank you for your comment! 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.”

Thank you for your kindly consideration!

Best regards,

Shania
Customer Service
President Starbucks Coffee Corporation Taiwan

Newsflash

Several hundred Aborigines from communities seriously affected by Typhoon Morakot staged a protest outside the Executive Yuan yesterday demanding that the government immediately relocate them from temporary accommodation in military camps.

Demonstrators from the Siraya, Piwan, Rukai, Bunun and Tsou people urged the Executive Yuan’s Morakot Post-Disaster Reconstruction Council to help the communities resume their tribal and family lives by accommodating them in prefabricated houses.
