Fifty-eight percent of Taiwanese surveyed believe that a cross-Straits war would break out if Taiwan declared independence, reported Taiwan's "Business Weekly" on Thursday.
The survey showed that 58 percent of local people regard themselves as Chinese. These people said that independence is the red line for the security of Taiwan and they oppose a cross-Straits war.
The survey also found that local people's opinion of the issue differed depending on their background, age and educational level.
The survey was conducted by telephone, on 1,811 people aged at 20 and older.
