Dear Mr. President:
I am a citizen of Tiawan. Our President Lee Teng-hui's recent comments calling
Taiwan's relations with China "special state-to-state" have prompted a strong
response from China as well as international concern.
In fact,President Lee's remarks are only a description of a reality that has
existed for half a century. Throughout this period,China has not ruled Taiwan
for one minute.Neither Taiwanese people paid a penny of tax to the People's
Republic of China.
Not to mention the fact that under a 1991 amendment,we have limited the
territorial jurisdiction of our Constitution to the Taiwan-Penghu-Kinmen-Mutsu
region and recognized the legitimacy of the rule of People's Republic of China
over the mainland.We can find similarities between our situation and the
relations between East and West German.What is then so improper about defining
cross-strait relations as "special state-ti-state"?
I hope Mr.President can have in-depth understanding of this and reconsider the
"one China"policy that does not fit with reality in any way.The United States
has the obligation and responsbility to clarify the status of both sides
across the Taiwan Strait to maintain peace and stability in the region.Because
only after such clarification can the two sides have a basis for dialogue-a
first step toward peace.
We wish for your health and happiness.
Sincerely,
--
