Tuesday, 04 November 2008 23:03 Dr. Hsu-Tung Yang & translated by Leo Wang

The 908 Taiwanese National Movement is formed by union of Taiwan’s pro-localization non-profit organizations with the aim of nation-building. On November First of 2008 at Taichung Park’s “Reject China, Bless Taiwan, Rally for Folks” activity, several thousand (4000 to 5000) people pro-actively came and participated. When President Chen Shui-Bien came, there permeated a poignant passion directed for nation-guarding and nation-building. We, the Tati Cultural and Educational Foundation, are also invited to be a member of the organizing committee.

Emotionally stirring events have to use the method of making sacrifices to brew the drives and the dynamics. When Professor Tsai Ting-Kuei (蔡丁貴) began his meditation protest in front of the Legislative Yuan on Oct. 25^th, I personally went there to observe. At that time, there were about 80 participants.

Newsflash

Former president Lee Teng-hui (李登輝) was indicted yesterday on charges of embezzling state funds, becoming the second democratically elected Taiwanese president to be indicted on corruption charges.

The Supreme Prosecutors’ Office Special Investigation Panel (SIP) has accused Lee and a top aide of illegally siphoning US$7.8 million from secret diplomatic funds used by the National Security Bureau (NSB) and laundering the money during his terms in office from 1988 to 2000.

If convicted, the 88-year-old Lee could face at least 10 years in prison, although prosecutors have indicated that they may ask for more lenient sentencing due to his age.
