How Taiwan’s Late Leader Haunts Its Future With China | Chiang Kai-shek: Shadow Across The Strait

As tensions with Beijing grow, the shadow of Taiwan’s late president, Chiang Kai-shek, still looms large over the territory. Fifty years after his death, Chiang remains one of Taiwan’s most divisive figures. His statues are being removed and his legacy debated as the island reckons with the history of martial law rule, from mass arrests and executions to the suppression of native languages. For some, he laid the foundations of modern Taiwan. For others, he symbolises decades of repression. Across the Strait, he is venerated as a symbol of national unity and remembered for his steadfast belief in One China. This documentary explores how Chiang’s contested legacy continues to shape Taiwan’s politics, its sense of identity, and how the territory envisions its future with China. 00:00 How Chiang Kai-shek still divides Taiwan 02:53 Rock band defying Chiang’s legacy 06:18 Taiwan’s fight against its authoritarian past 13:09 Chinese town that thrives on Chiang’s legacy 16:27 Why Beijing still honours a fallen rival 18:34 What students in Taiwan learn about China 21:47 Where Chiang Kai-shek’s statues ended up 23:26 Chiang Kai-shek’s unfulfilled dream 25:29 Taiwan’s 228 massacre and its lasting impact 30:25 Divide between Waishengren and Benshengren 34:07 Reviving a language once silenced by Chiang 38:18 The island where Chiang plays god 42:08 YouTuber calling for closer ties with China 43:26 Chiang Kai-shek’s legacy 50 years on #CNAInsider #CNAShadowAcrossTheStrait #ChiangKaiShek #China #Taiwan #History For more, SUBSCRIBE to CNA INSIDER https://cna.asia/insideryoutubesub Follow CNA INSIDER on: Instagram:   / cnainsider   Facebook:   / cnainsider   Website: https://cna.asia/cnainsider
