Then the name china can't appear on apparel either it being just as political in reference to the same situation.

They only compete as Chinese Taipei because China has leaned on the commission to not recognize their nation even while self governed. It's the UK telling Canada they can't have Canadian merchandise and have to compete under their Commonwealth name.
