ISTR you can hold two passports concurrently if you regularly need to
do that.

IIRC the same applies if one wants to visit the territory controlled
by the RoC, as well as that controlled by the PRC.


I wonder why that would still be necessary, given that there's now
plenty of direct travel between the two Chinas? For example, the
Taiwanese Air China alone has direct flights to dozens of airports in
mainland China. Indeed, many of the sweat-shop factories in China are
owned by Taiwanese companies like Foxconn.
