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
