Senate allies add report

Supporters of Taiwan in the US Senate Armed Services Committee added a requirement for a presidential report on the status of the Taiwanese Air Force in next year’s National Defense Authorization Act passed on July 23, the latest edition of Defense News reported.

Defense News quoted Andrew Yang, secretary-general of the Taipei-based Chinese Council of Advanced Policy Studies, as saying that the requirement would likely push for the sale of the 66 F-16C/D fighter aircraft requested by Taiwan in 2006.

The two tumors that had been detected in former president Chen Shui-bian’s (陳水扁) seminal vesicle earlier this year are nonmalignant blood clots, doctors said yesterday after Chen underwent a follow-up medical checkup, adding that they were trying to determine why a third clot had formed.

Chen was granted temporary release from prison so he could get a medical checkup at Chang Gung Hospital’s branch in Linkou District (林口), New Taipei City (新北市), yesterday morning. He was transported from Taipei Prison to the hospital at about 6am.
