In Taiwan, this is when I say, peaceful coexistence with old systems, I really mean it. Because every year we vote. One year we vote for mayors, another year for a general referendum, then the next year for president and legislators and another year again for general referendum. So, it is representative, direct representative, direct on alternating years. That means that the parties will not hijack the conversation when it is the referendum year and vice versa.
