The Supreme Prosecutors’ Office Special Investigation Division (SID) yesterday closed its investigation into Yu Chang Biologics Co (宇昌生技股份有限公司), now known as TaiMed Biologics Inc (中裕新藥股份有限公司), clearing former Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) chairperson Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) of any wrongdoing.

The SID launched its investigation during the presidential campaign after Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) lawmakers accused Tsai of manipulating investments by the National Development Fund (NDF) in TaiMed when she was vice premier in 2007. Tsai served as chairperson of the biotech company for several months after she stepped down as vice premier in May 2007.

DHARAMSHALA, June 7: For the second time in a year, China has cut off Tibet from the outside world with a ban on foreign tourists, just ten days after two Tibetans set themselves on fire in the nation’s capital Lhasa.

Major travel agencies in the region were informed in late May by Chinese authorities that travellers from overseas would not be allowed into Tibet. The agencies were clueless about how long the ban would last.
