History of KMT lies repeats itself

[dArKeR]

Morals have been neglected during Taiwan's democratization because the government and society have ignored the issue of historical justice.

The Chen Wen-chen Incident (?????), for instance, has never been officially redressed. On July 2, 1981, Chen, an academic and dissident, returned to Taiwan from the US to visit his family. He was summoned and questioned by police. The next day his corpse was found by the Research Library of National Taiwan University.

At that time, the KMT government claimed that Chen had committed suicide, however, an autopsy performed by an American forensics expert disputed this conclusion.

But history is not without irony. A few days ago, Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Chairman Lien Chan (??) and People First Party (PFP) Chairman James Soong (???) said at an international press conference that the autopsy on Chen was conducted by foreign experts, adding that foreign professionals helped clarify suspicions and showed good faith to the nation. Are these really the facts?
