> Taiwan <snip>, but has a deal to keep the governments mostly separate until a certain date.

I only dabble, occasionally, in reading things on the internet related to ROC (Taiwan) and PRC (China), but I've not come across anything supporting the idea there is a certain date for reunification, or that reunification is certain.

There isn't. GP is confusing Taiwan and Tibet for Hong Kong/Macau. TW and Tibet are territories claimed by China whereas HK and Macau are indisputably Chinese cities but under a special arrangement which theoretically should give them more autonomy.
