In a meeting before the Ketagelan Academy, President Chen said that Taiwan is truly democratic, and opinions as diverse as changing Taiwan's name, advocating the "one country, two systems" formula for unification with China, or turning Taiwan into a US state, are tolerated. And toleration of expression is a precious aspect of Taiwanese democracy.
陳總統接見凱達格蘭學校學員代表時指出，台灣真的很民主，各種聲音都可以包容，有人主張台灣正名，有人主張一國兩制，還有人主張台灣變成美國的一州，這是台灣民主彌足珍貴之處。
