MAC head Chiu trying to find a scapegoat: KMT By Sherry Hsiao / Staff reporter The Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) yesterday accused Mainland Affairs Council (MAC) Minister Chiu Tai-san (邱太三) of looking for a scapegoat for the predicament in cross-strait relations. In an interview with the Central News Agency on Tuesday, Chiu was quoted as saying that “Beijing can use the ‘1992 consensus’ to declare to the international community that Taiwan is an internal affair.” The so-called “1992 consensus,” a term former MAC minister Su Chi (蘇起) in 2006 admitted making up in 2000, refers to a tacit understanding between the KMT and the Chinese Communist Party that both sides of the Taiwan Strait acknowledge there is “one China,” with each side having its own interpretation of what “China” means.
