Taiwan Special Lecture---Results Of U.S. Presidential Election Taipei's Perspective



During the Presidential Elections the world watched---a decision that not only affects the U.S. but has far reaching implications throughout the world.

How will China adapt to an Obama Administration? What will happen in Taiwan?

Under Taiwan's President Ma Ying jeou, tensions have arisen, yesterday I wrote here that China stirring up trouble for our friend
and ally. With the U.S. Presidential Elections over, the election of a political unknown President elect Obama, has Taiwan's democracy been hijacked by the KMT ?

The MSM remains quiet, the Bush Administration has been silent and President elect Obama has called "China a great nation" making it clear that Taiwan should negotiate away its freedom to China one party rule.

Professor Lin the former Deputy Minister of Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense and former Vice Chairman of the Mainland Affairs Council, Dr. Lin will offer his views during a lecture open to the public at Yale University on Wednesday, 19 November at 4:00 pm there will be a Q&A subsequently, followed by a reception.
