In this study, we demonstrate that the disrtribution of preference on the independence/unification issue was quite stable between 1994 and 2002. There were less than 5% respondents showing either an ”independence” or ”unification” preference between 1994 and 2002. One out of two respondents took ”mainatain the status quo now, decide what to do later,” or ”maintain the status quo indefinitely” stances. It indicates that most people in Taiwan take ambiguous stance on the independence/unification issue because they believe that maintaining the status quo is the best option for them at this time.
