BEIJING, April 29 (Xinhuanet) -- Lien Chan, chairman of the Kuomintang party, said here Friday that the majority in Taiwan would not accept the policy of "desinification," which is aimed at severing ties between the Chinese mainland and Taiwan.

    It's "a pity" that some political forces in Taiwan have been advocating such "an extreme idea", said Lien when answering a question at the end of his 40-minute speech in Beijing University.

    "I'm sure that the majority of Taiwan people will not take on their shoes," said Lien, who described the efforts for "desinification" as something out of the imagination of the people in other countries and the mainland.

    These "desinification" efforts have aroused great concern among Taiwan people and even foreigners residing in Taiwan, he added.

    According to him, parents of numerous school children are now looking for resources other than public schools in Taiwan to continue education in Chinese history and culture.

    "The parents hope their children could learn more about the creams of the Chinese culture," Lien said. Enditem
