The Austronesian Basic Vocabulary Database (2008) accepts Northern, rejects Eastern, links Tsouic and Rukai (two highly divergent languages), and links Malayo-Polynesian with Paiwan in a Paiwanic group.
Rukai and Tsouic are seen as highly divergent, although the position of Rukai is highly controversial.
This supports Chang's (2006) claim that Tsouic is not a valid group.
