Taiwan Nationalist to Meet Chinese Leader

TAIPEI, Taiwan - The leader of Taiwan's opposition Nationalists will travel to China later this month for the first encounter with a leader of China's Communists in more than five decades, party officials said Wednesday.

Party leader Lien Chan declined to give details of what he would discuss with China's President Hu Jintao when they meet in Beijing on April 29, but he characterized his trip as a "voyage of peace."

"Our aim at this time is to bring peace for both sides of the Taiwan Strait, stability for both sides, and to lay some positive groundwork for the whole future," Lien said.

Taiwan and China split in 1949 at the end of a bitter civil war when the Nationalists fled to the island as the Communists took control of the mainland.

1. The is the first time I've seen AP say more than "Taiwan and China split in 1949." I wonder if they're tired of me calling them and bulk emailing them pointing out their lies?
2. AP let's see a little more truth about Formosa was independent before the KMT invaded and murdered in Formosa.
3. Your article implies that Taiwan had free elections since 1949 and then Chen won in 2000. Not the case, INVESTIGATE!
4. How bout a litte on the "Child Whores' sold to the KMT as sex slaves. I SAW THEM on Snake Alley.
5. How bout a little history of the filthy murderous corruption of the KMT and what Lien represents?

PS. You're a Whore STEPHAN GRAUWELS Associated Press Writer

Yeah, that awful KMT. Are you suggesting that human rights abuses are one-sided in this relationship? Because Communist China is not exactly a paragon of virtue.

But perhaps dArKeR will speak for himself.

Former president Lee Teng-hui (???) yesterday denounced pending visits by opposition leaders to China as "collusion with the Chinese Communist Party and a sell-out of Taiwan."
He said cross-strait tensions should instead be tackled by Washington, Tokyo, Taipei and Beijing in a conference held in the US.

Lee, the head of the Hand-in-Hand Taiwan Alliance, joined the leaders of what organizers claimed were 100 civic groups at an international press conference yesterday at the Taipei Sheraton Hotel.

"Let's make a deal".

Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Chairman Lien Chan (??) and People First Party (PFP) Chairman James Soong (???) are in a race to make pilgrimages to China. The gang of politicians who used to be anti-communist crusaders has had a change of heart now that they've been ousted from power.

It may be hard to imagine now, but they used to vow to exterminate the "evil communist bandits." They justified keeping in place martial law and the autocratic regime that enriched them on the grounds of fighting communism.

Now, in total disregard for the nation's overall interests and security, they compete to be the first to pay their respects to the "bandits," and take pride in becoming guests of the communist regime. It is truly hard to have any respect for people who exhibit such an ugly, opportunistic side of human nature.

Academics yesterday strongly criticized Chinese National Party (KMT) Chairman Lien Chan's (??) trip to China as "treason" and asked the government to take practical steps to prevent such visits.

"Lien's trip to China is treason. It might not necessarily be a treason in the legal sense at this point but it is definitely emotional and political treason," said Chen I-shen (???), the Northern Taiwan Society's deputy chairman and a research fellow at Academia Sinica.

Chen made the remarks yesterday afternoon in a seminar held by the Northern Taiwan Society, the Taiwan Association of University Professors (TAUP) and a Taiwan historical society to analyze Lien's trip, which begins tomorrow.
