The Olympics is just China’s way of swinging their power around and forcing the association to call us that. We rather participate than not.
As for formal declaration, why go through the trouble? Even China immigration thinks we are a different country. You know, Taiwanese are required to get a Visa to visit the mainland? Why if they think we are part of China?
We have basically been independent for 75 years now. It’s like a couple that have been together for years and bought a house together. Why have a wedding anymore. Too much hassle.

Hong kong and Macau both requre Visa’s to enter and vise versa, its part of the one china 2 systems moddle that they have extended to Tiwan.
They just use their Mainland Travel Permit. Completely different from what we need to do to go into China.
