Bopomofo is still taught in taiwan and zhuyin is still used for typing. The only thing changed is signs now use pinyin....

Well they don't change the signs in Tainan or Taipei, only exists in 1 or 2 county's.

Hopefully they don't switch to pinyin, and I especially hope they don't switch to Simplified.

It had always been some form of romanticization for street names. Pronunciation has always been bopomofo.
