The external link "Entire text of San-min Chu-i by Dr. Sun Yat-sen (Traditional Chinese)" (http://www.folkdoc.idv.tw/classic/p02/ba/ba01/a1.htm) does not link to the intended article, but instead, to a parked domain.

Prologue

For what is effectively the founding doctrine of a whole civilization, post-Imperial China, of one and a half billion people, this treatment is not enough. -- 142.177.10.38, 21 Jun 2003


Removed statement that compares three principles of the people institutes with , they are similar to those dedicated to one single political theory each, such as those for Juche (Kimilsungism) and for Maoism, elsewhere in the world.

I'm not aware of any graduate level institutes for the study of Maoism.

reinterpreting the Three Principles of the People in a local Taiwanese context

I am not aware of any TI supporters wreinterpreted Sun's invention in a local Taiwanese context.Mababa 04:54, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)

The interwiki links in "Three Principles of the People" and "National Anthem of the Republic of China" have been mixed up and were fixed by me. Please see if I have wrongly edited them. --Hello World! 16:32, 13 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

"claims to administer"

It is enough to say that "the Republic of China, which currently administers Taiwan, Penghu, Quemoy, and Matsu Islands." There is no need to qualify that it "claims to administer" these. – Kaihsu 16:48, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Little overt opposition"

The passage that states there had been little overt opposition over Sun's thought in Taiwan is in fact inaccuarte.Three People's Principle used to be a mandatory indoctrination course in Taiwanese universities, but was abolished piece-meal. Three People's Principles is also written in the ROP constituition, the revision of which is in the center of a political storm, hotly contested by the partisans of independence and the KMT. -Chin, Cheng-chuan

I have revised according to your comment and my own observations. – Kaihsu 14:40, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I need to report a problem on external link. The second external link called "Reading the Three Principles" (http://www.energyschool.com/writings/bodyreading_the_principles.PDF) actually focuses on health and medicine and not on political framework. I am urging everyone who are responsible for overseeing this website to review the existing external links and to amend the website as soon as possible. Thank you.

GUOMINGDANG not Kuomintang

It is not Kuomintang, nor Kuomindang. It is Guomindang. The sign "Guo" mean country

Therefore it should be replaced by Guomingdang - pravda1987

Not quite. :Pinyin is not officially used at the central government level in the Republic of China, and the KMT itself uses Kuomintang as the official translation. You use GMD and you will draw blank stare in the ROC. --JNZ 05:23, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The First Example of the Third Way or Social Democracy?

If you read carefully what Sun Yat-sen proposed, you can see that his ideas align very well with social democracy or even the Third Way from Tony Blair in the late 1990s. Swedish studies on Sun Yat-sen focus on similarities between the Three Principles and Scandinavian social model. [1] Anyone interested to find more links to studies of this?

AFAIK 權 is usually translated as 'right', and particularly, I think 民權 is better translated as 'civil rights' and not "The People's Power" UncleMatt 21:07, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

權 can be either "power" or "rights". In the current context, 權 (民權, 政權, 治權) is more about "power" than "civil rights" as defined by conventional western political philosophy, except in the case of 政權 (election, recall, initiative, and referendum). – Kaihsu 09:27, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
