Harry Hsu has been living in Melbourne for the last 5 years, where he works as a photographer and camera technician. He is voting in Taiwan's election for the first time and says he doesn't want to take his opportunity to vote for granted - if China takes Taiwan in the years ahead, he'll lose that right. He says he very much considers himself Taiwanese, not Chinese, and doesn't want that to change. He's in Taipei where he spoke to SBS Asia correspondent Aaron Fernandes.
