15 May – Renaming of Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall: President Chen Shui-bian announced the renaming of the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall in Taipei to the "National Taiwan Democracy Memorial Hall". This move was condemned by the pan-blue media as a political move by the Democratic Progressive Party to denounce the historical heritage of the Republic of China. The site has since been restored back to the original title with the Nationalists back in power.
July – The Republic of China applied for UN membership to represent the people of Taiwan and its outlying islands only, under the name "Taiwan", and was rejected by the General Assembly.
