Taiwan will send a top defense official to the US to attend a defense industry meeting, a report said yesterday.

The US-Taiwan Business Council has invited Defense Minister Lee Jye (??) to participate in the bilateral meeting slated for Oct. 3-5, the third of its kind, a Chinese-language newspaper said.

But it quoted an unnamed military officer as saying "at this moment, Lee has not yet decided to attend or not because he may have to stay here to defend the special military budget while it is screened by the Legislative Yuan."

If that happens, Deputy Defense Minister Huo Sho-yeh (???) would instead attend and meet his US counterpart, Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz, it said.

The nation's defense ministry declined to comment on the report.
