Taiwanese localization movement



Localization or Taiwanization (; Pe̍h-oē-jī: pún-thó͘-hòa) is a political term used within Taiwan to emphasize the importance of Taiwan's culture rather than to regard Taiwanese as solely an appendage of China. This involves the teaching of history of Taiwan, geography, and culture from a local perspective, as well as promoting languages locally established in Taiwan, including Hoklo, Hakka and aboriginal languages.
