@ChenJunHung I also recommend you to google "Han Chinese in Taiwan". You'll find a page on 國立暨南大學 that lists a number of courses offered in the anthropology department. One course is entitled "Society and Culture of Han Chinese in Taiwan", translated as "台灣漢人社會與文化” on their website. So, the term Han Chinese can mean Hanren.

@ChenJunHung Here's a definition from OED, specifically written for morons like you who cannot understand the ambiguity of "Chinese":

belonging to or relating to the people forming the dominant ethnic group of China and widely dispersed elsewhere. Also called Han

Umm no..im taiwanese..my ancestors didnt flee or came from china. Chinese ppl dont speak the same dialect as true taiwanese ppl.

[F0reseer]

this is so stupid. you're all Chinese. While I understand the political divide, this pretend racial difference is a complete fabrication. It's like saying I'm Canadian American.....or Texan American. The census question asks your race, not the place where you're from. This campaign is frivolous.

[nomnomsoo]

@Lewolfking Tell that to the 'Americans' first. They left England and invaded 'America' which was inhabited by the Native Indians ... then they gave the Natives diseases and took control over their territories .......... I say the Taiwanese have the right to call themselves TAIWANESE if Americans call themselves 'AMERICANS' since they should refer themselves as 'ENGLISH' ................. my honest opinion.

[yummyjuniorm]

To the people who thinks taiwanese is a race and are insulting us ,note* WE ARE NOT FROM CHINA (we hate China too yea).China bans youtube ,we are probably chinese from hongkong,Malaysia and Singapore ,and we are proud of our cultures,tradition and food.I know China is a shameful country and by calling ourselves Chinese,people will probably think we are from China,but China was always never that bad,centuries ago China was an Amazing country and you should be proud of being apart of that.

Taiwanese is a race? I always thought it's a nationality...

Isn't everyone with Chinese origin (including people from Singapore, Malaysia ect.) are sometimes considered to Hua Ren in America? Anyway, I just consider my self to be ASIAN American.

I support this video.

[tedfong77]

In the Deep south of U.S of the A....my brothers are Taiwanese, Chinese, East Asians, Koreans, Japanese, Malays...Asian brothers...we stick together and watch each others back.

Keep hating...retards.

[tedfong77]

In Charelston, SC there are no Taiwanese or Mainland Chinese....we are all consider Chinks. Keep hating each other retards. In the eyes of Americans/Westerners...we are the Enemy.

You non-chinese taiwanese stop celebrating chinese new year, please stop labeling our MINNAN dialect as taiwanese, change your chinese name to japanese, stop eating chinese food everyday, stop practicing chinese cultures, so that I don't mistake you as a chinese person.
