News Media

From Taiwanese

It is hard to imagine anyone with any degree of human decency can say the following. Yet you can harvest such news daily from Taiwan's news media.

[edit] 1980-02: James Soong, as the head of the GIO, wrote "anyone in Taiwan has the same opportunity ... to participate in politics..."

Dr. Jerome Keating wrote the following on 2006-12-14:

Soong's words on equality of participation in politics contrasted sharply with the facts of the time. In January 1978, the Legislative Yuan had 406 members, 87% of them were life-term KMT members from mainland China, 13% were limited-term members from Taiwan. The Control Yuan had 64 members, 77% of them were life-term KMT members from mainland China, 23% were limited-term members from Taiwan. The National Assembly had 1,248 members and 95% of them were life-term KMT members from mainland China and 5% were limited-term members from Taiwan.

[edit] 2006-12-07: 聯合報: 當施明德喚起百萬紅衫軍運動，在道德的制高點上，立即超越了林義雄

施明德 is a better person than 林義雄?

[edit] 2006-12-10: Taipei major-elect 郝龍斌 said: …我的勝選，證明了國民黨的清廉，戰勝了民進黨的貪污…

國民黨清廉?
