	Simplified Chinese character at AllExperts
		Although most of the Simplified Chinese characters in use today are the result of the works moderated by the government of the People's Republic of China (PRC) in the 1950s and 60s, character simplification predates the PRC's formation in 1949.
		In Hong Kong, traditional chinese characters are officially and customarily used, but the increasing influence of mainland China on Hong Kong has boosted the use of simplified characters.
		Since simplified Chinese conflated many characters into one and since the initial version of the GB encoding scheme, known as GB2312-80, contained only one code point for each character, it is impossible to use GB2312 to map to the bigger set of traditional characters.

		In the first 40 years of KMT rule, the Taiwanese were excluded from political participation; only the Mainland Chinese had political access and privileges.
		During this period the Taiwanese and the Mainland Chinese were divided into separate and mutually resentful political camps and social communities, a division reinforced by the political repression used by the Mainland Chinese to control the Taiwanese majority and the groups' leaders.
		The main grievance of the Mainland Chinese, on the other hand, lies in the desire to preserve Mainland culture.

		Mainland high school and senior vocational school principals, legal specialists, as well as land and construction specialists have been permitted to visit Taiwan; restrictions on the qualifications for Taiwan investment in the mainland have been relaxed; and cross-strait trade in securities and futures has been liberalized.
		Secondly, the mainland regime continued its campaign of military threats begun the year before to obstruct the holding of the ROC's presidential and vice-presidential election, by launching a series of missile tests and military exercises in waters off Taiwan's shores.
		If only the mainland authorities will set aside selfish partisan considerations, straightforwardly face up to the current situation, demonstrate respect for their cross-strait counterparts, and give priority to the public interest, both sides can replace antagonism with negotiation, eliminate enmity through communication, solve all disputes and advance positive interaction.
