Former president Chen Shui-bian (陳水扁) drew comparisons between his “One Side, One Country” Alliance and the US “Tea Party” movement yesterday, saying that they both “insist on the most basic principles” and defend fundamental ideas.
In a statement that will be released by the Neo Formosa Magazine on Wednesday, he says the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) failed to stand against the cross-strait Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) and suggests his alliance is a growing political movement.
