The Chinese are very particular when it comes to the correct way to refer to its two "special administrative regions", Hong Kong and Macao, and it's "rogue province", Taiwan. Although they are all independent - especially, Taiwan, the Chinese still consider them under Chinese sovereignty.
Based on this logic, you would think that a flight from China to Hong Kong, Macau, or Taiwan would be a domestic flight, but that's not the case.
So, if it's not a domestic flight, then it must be an international flight, and that would imply that you are going to another country that happens to have it's own government, currency, and passports, but that's not the case either.
The Chinese have found a clever way around this paradox.
They are not as particular when it comes to correct spelling.
