PFP lawmaker to sit by China's side

Su said the Taiwanese delegation is prepared for any action China may take at the conference that will affect Taiwan's national status.

China may list Taiwan as one of its provinces in today's morning conference session entitled "National Response" or Chinese experts may attempt to answer participants' questions about Taiwan's SARS outbreak.

The Taiwanese delegation planned to hold an international press conference immediately after today's "National Response" session to clarify Taiwan's status if China claimed Taiwan as one of its provinces in its SARS report, officials said.
