Ma, Jiang misleading the public, academics say

Thursday, 18 April 2013 08:22 Taipei Times

Several academics in the legal field yesterday said that President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) and Premier Jiang Yi-huah (江宜樺) are obscuring the facts and misleading the public by asserting that it would be against the Constitution to stop construction of the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant in New Taipei City’s (新北市) Gongliao District (貢寮).

Two civic groups urged the Cabinet and the ruling party not to use supposed violations of the Constitution as an excuse for holding a referendum on the matter, because a referendum should be held based on the principle of responsible politics.

The All Japan Taiwanese Union yesterday expressed its condolences to Japan after former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was assassinated during an election campaign event in Nara, Japan, on Friday.

Abe won the respect of many international leaders, and Taiwanese regard him as “the most respected and amiable Japanese politician,” the group said in a statement.
