    The Taiwanese don’t hold the power, if you’re talking about the indigenous peoples. Taiwan wouldn’t be what it is now without imperialism in the first place. And the Chinese people in power don’t consider their island independent from the mainland, which they also lay claim to. It doesn’t seem like a clear-cut self-determination issue to me.
