The Act on Promoting Transitional Justice (促進轉型正義條例) passed the third legislative reading on Tuesday last week.
The question now is what should be done with the remaining symbols related to Chiang Kai-shek (蔣介石) that accumulated during his 26 years of authoritarian rule over Taiwan: all the Chiang statues, roads and schools named after him, the NT$1 and NT$5 coins, the NT$10 coins issued before 2011, as well as the NT$200 bills featuring his image, the compilation of history textbooks and even his ostentatious and extravagant mausoleum in Cihu (慈湖) in Taoyuan’s Dasi District (大溪).
