The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) yesterday mobilized nearly 500,000 people from southern Taiwan to march in Kaohsiung's streets to campaign for President Chen Shui-bian's (???) re-election bid, as well as the success of Taiwan's first national referendum.

"This is the last battle between native power and alien authority," former President Lee Teng-hui (???) said during last night's rally. "This will be the end for those conservative forces in Taiwan, who have irrationally attacked President Chen -- the son of Taiwan -- in their attempt to steal back political power."

Commenting on the pan-blue camp's rally yesterday for opposing Chen Shui-bian, Lee said that the Taiwanese people have had enough of the conservative forces echoing China with their threats.

This was just a mini-rally, a throw it together on the last minute, few days. The DPP real rally was Feb. 28 with 2 Million plus. Even the KMT owned newspaper called in 1.5 Million plus.
