KMT is like a vampire under the rising sun

The past should not be forgotten

People First Party (PFP) presidential candidate James Soong (宋楚瑜), echoing Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) presidential candidate Tsai Ing-wen’s (蔡英文) concluding remarks about Taiwan’s democratization in the second and final televised presidential debate on Saturday, said that he “had made efforts” in the democratization process.

He then said that the concept of “two Chinas” that was proposed by the US government decades ago could still be applied to cross-strait relations today, but this would only be possible if Beijing would accept it.
