Thursday, 13 October 2011 09:47 Taiwan Tati Cultural & Educational Foundation

Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Chairperson Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) yesterday called on supporters to make their voices heard in the north as she crossed the Jhuoshuei River (濁水溪), the symbolic dividing line between north and south Taiwan.

Yunlin County Commissioner Su Chih-fen (蘇治芬) said crossing the Jhuoshuei symbolized that the DPP’s influence was continuing to spread northwards.

Tsai’s campaign tour moved along the No. 1 Provincial Highway yesterday, bringing her to Citong (莿桐) and Siluo (西螺) townships on the banks of the Jhuoshuei, where she visited temples and roadside rest areas and sampled local dishes.

Academics and politicians continued to express mixed reactions yesterday to Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Chairperson Tsai Ing-wen’s (蔡英文) “recognition” of the Republic of China (ROC) last weekend, with some members of the pan-green camp voicing strong disapproval.

While most people, including the DPP’s rival in the January presidential elections the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT), welcomed the statement, some DPP members expressed displeasure over Tsai’s statement, with DPP Legislator Twu Shiing-jer (涂醒哲) saying that Taiwan is not the ROC and that its status remains undecided.

Former first lady Wu Shu-jen (吳淑珍), who is paralyzed from the waist down, must be taken to a prison hospital to undergo a fitness evaluation before a decision can be made as to whether she will be incarcerated, Minister of Justice Tseng Yung-fu (曾勇夫) said yesterday.

Speaking at a pre-Lunar New Year holiday news conference, Tseng said the Kaohsiung District Prosecutors’ Office has sent Wu’s medical records to Pei Teh Hospital — the medical facility connected to Taichung Prison — to facilitate the assessment.
