Taiwanese People's Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Initially a party with members holding moderate and conservative views, by the time of its banning, on February 18, 1931, it had become a solidly leftist, workers-oriented party. |
 | | In terms of policy it advocated the rights of Taiwanese to publish newspapers, the need to teach Taiwanese in public schools, abolition of a system of informers known as "Baojia Zhidu", removal of the need for passport when travelling to China, and reform of the farmers' associations and government monopolies. |
 | | During the party's short existence its internal politics was dominated by the struggle between the left-wing, led by Chiang Weishui (蔣渭水), and the right-wing, represented by P'eng Hua-ying (彭華英), to define the party's core values, particularly its position on "the class question". |
