The Pan-Violette Coalition ( Chinese 泛 紫 聯盟 / 泛 紫 联盟 , Pinyin Fànzǐ Liánméng ) or the Alliance of Fairness and Justice ( Chinese 公平 正義 聯盟 / 公平 正义 联盟 , Pinyin Gōngpíng zhèngyì liánméng ) is a socially active umbrella organization in Taipehéng . The coalition consists of nine non-profit associations that work for the rights of the underprivileged. They advocate progressive taxation , social systems , educational reforms , and gender and ethnic equality .
The name is based on the names of the two politically dominant forces in the country, the Pan-Blue Coalition and the Pan-Green Coalition . The Pan-Violette Coalition accuses them of neglecting domestic political problems and deepening ethnic divisions in addition to the respective main goals of reunification with or formal independence from mainland China .
