However, the Freebsd community has been quite political-neutral by respecting the voice of Taiwanese Freebsd users. We are not requesting for a privilege, we just want the Freebsd community to be like how it was before. Please use "Country/Region" in the UI and keep "Taiwan" as "Taiwan" instead of "Taiwan, Province of China". Cheers.
