Facing this problem, the GIO has decided to avoid political battles and approach it from a cultural and environmental stance. In finding a new symbol of Taiwan--ideally one that can represent Taiwan both to its own people and the outside world, and can be used to revamp the nation's image--the first priority is to make sure it is something to which all Taiwanese can relate.
面對困境，新聞局此番避開政治衝撞，改從文化與自然出發，希望能尋找出對內、對外均能代表台灣的新意象，並藉此重新打造國家形象，而首要則是凝聚內部共識。
