China/Taiwan Flag

During the last employee event, our company put up flags on light poles in the parking lot. I think it was to show that we're a worldwide company so there was a flag for each country where we have an office. As you drive in the entrance, you see a Canadian flag followed by others. As you keep driving, the Taiwan flag was the 4th or 5th one on your left.



At first, I didn't see a China flag. I thought, "Hmm... someone from the mainland will b*tch about that." After searching the parking lot, I found it off to one side. It was hard to find because it's hidden behind some trees as you drive in. Next thought, "Someone will still complain that we're flying the Taiwan flag at all." Well, coming back from lunch today, I noticed that the location of the two flags have switched so that Taiwan flag is now harder to find. I wonder what prompted that change. Maybe we have some CCP party members or 五毛党 here at work; they're really really sensitive about the 3 T's (Taiwan, Tibet, and Tiananmen).

I'll try to get some pictures later.
