I am from Taiwan as well, while, the situation for me is not like what you said. Millions of issues of Taiwan have been discussed by the people around me and most of them are so shamed. Taiwan does not have democracy actually, while it looks like. The government of Taiwan is too weak to be called a government of a country. Moreover ,the political leader in Taiwan are not trusted by public. The economics of Taiwan is actually worse off then ever before. People there are suffering inflation problem even more than people in China mainland. It is true that in many ways Taiwan has better industry compare to China, however if we do not look at what China has been done or about to do, I 'm sure thatall the people in Taiwan will be freak out and start to think which way is actually better for improving their standard of living.
