Taiwan Unhappy With Google Maps

According to the International Herald Tribune, Taiwan -- which is only recognized among 26 countries, and has no UN seat -- wants Google to revise its Google Map labelling of Taiwan as a "Province of China."

"It is incorrect to call Taiwan a province of China because we are not," said MichaelLu, a spokesman for the Foreign Ministry. "We have contacted Google to express our position and asked them to correct the description."
