Despite Beijing's intimidation and suppression, Taiwan should continue its efforts to push for constitutional reforms and Taiwanese people should have the final say on the context of the new Constitution, according to a poll released yesterday.
The survey, conducted by Taiwan Thinktank, questioned 1,145 adults between Sept. 1 and Sept. 3, found that 66 percent of the people polled said that the nation should continue constitutional reform over the the next four years to resolve constitutional controversy and disputes. Only 12 percent of the respondents were opposed to this.
In the survey, over 44 percent of those questioned said that the government should continue constitutional reforms despite Beijing's pressure, while 34 percent of the respondents said the reform efforts should be halted.
