On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), Taiwanese celebrities took to social media to post congratulatory messages. Despite the strained relations between Taiwan and China, several prominent figures in the entertainment industry expressed their well wishes to the neighboring country.
Famous Taiwanese singer Annie Yi posted a photo of a flower with the caption “Blessings and peace to you. Happy birthday, PRC,” on her social media account. Actress Alyssa Chia also shared a photo of a flower with the Chinese characters for “national day” written on it, along with the message “Wishing the motherland a happy national day, hope everything goes well.”
The messages from Taiwanese celebrities come at a time when tensions between Taiwan and China are high, with China asserting its territorial claims over Taiwan and Taiwan striving for international recognition and independence. Despite the political differences, the celebrities’ messages aimed to promote peace and harmony between the two sides.
The posts sparked mixed reactions among netizens, with some praising the celebrities for their positive messages while others criticized them for expressing support for the PRC. However, the overall sentiment seemed to be one of goodwill and shared values, emphasizing the importance of unity and peace in the region.
The congratulatory messages from Taiwanese celebrities serve as a reminder of the complex relationship between Taiwan and China, as well as the shared cultural heritage and history that bind the two sides together. While political differences may exist, the messages of peace and goodwill from the entertainment industry demonstrate a desire for harmony and understanding between Taiwan and China.
