Taiwan and China discuss free trade deal (transcript from BBC, UK on 02/04/2010)

'Officials from China and Taiwan are meeting near Taipei for two days of talks on a controversial trade liberalisation agreement.'
The so called "ECFA' (Economic Co-operation Framework Agreement) has been put on the table between Taiwan and China for which Kuomingtang government designated to be signed up in June 2010!
In accordance with the regulations of WTO (World Trade Organization), if one signed up such kind of agreement with other nation independently; they are bound by the obligation of WTO to open their market completely within 10 years (target to zero tariff) to all members of WTO, if it is not fulfilled, one has to pay heavy penalty prior jurisdiction from WTO.
In my personal view, ECFA is just like Taiwan issuing a blank cheque to China as there is entirely no transparency during past discussion, Kuomingtang only revealed how beneficial Taiwan will be once ECFA is signed without mentioning the negative impact on Taiwan, up till now we only know Taiwan's "early harvest" list but contrary to that "early damage" list never prevailed.
To my understanding, if we signed up the controversial agreement with China, our small and medium enterprises, agricultural, poultry and fishery industries will be hard hit and tens of thousands of jobs would be lost as well as lots of enterprises gone out of business, only very few industries will be taking advantages out of such agreement which will be refinery, mining, IT etc. As far as I am concerned, if one have to sign up an important agreement such as this, one must have to be well prepared for bargaining with your chips with negotiating partner, on the contrary, we did not see any bargaining power from KMT during the procedure and only propaganda is pressing ahead as to persuade people of Taiwan to accept whatever terms China offers. One can judge clearly that if Taiwan and China both are members of WTO, why can't we discuss the whole matter under the framework of FTA (Free Trade Agreement)? That is the right way Taiwan should go under the track which avoid a lot of disputes that undermined the rights of Taiwanese. At the same token, China has been trying hard to stop other nations to sign up FTA with Taiwan right from the start but now turn around and urged us to sign up ECFA with them? I can be certain that it is politically motivated; i.e. China wants to use their economic power as their tools to push for reunifications; so as to enhance their pace and visualised their dream to gobble Taiwan and make us become part of China. I strongly opposed to such agreement to be signed without mandate from Taiwanese and support a referendum on this issue prior the matter being materialized.
