		The referendum is just a 'hoax aimed at wooing votes'-- Chen opponents in and out of Taiwan accused him of using the referendum as a "gambit" in the upcoming presidential election to divert attention from Taiwan's "tumultuous" political and economic situation.
		All the rhetoric that he uses, whether calling for democracy or peace, and all the things he does, whether clamoring for a referendum or making military purchases, are but carefully orchestrated stunts, staged at a time when nothing practical is being done to answer public concerns about the island's economic woes and worsening cross-Straits relations....
		The legitimacy and public support for his 'one principle and four major issues' will be decided by the expression of the people's desire, in the form of a referendum, to negotiate with China on an equal basis.

		SUMMARY:On March 18th Chen Shuibian, of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), won Taiwan’s second Presidential election ending the Kuomintang’s 51 years of rule.
		Chen Zau-nan, a member of the DPP’s Central Executive Committee, suggested that it might be replaced with a phrase indicating that Taiwan is an "sovereign independent country." Beijing has for many years criticized the DPP, claiming that there is only one China and that Taiwan is a part of it.
		Analysts are currently speculating about the implications of these gestures and the possibility that Chen Shui-bian’s recent victory might result in closer rather than more distant relations between Taiwan and mainland China.
