Taiwan Doesn't Regret Jackson Pop Award
TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) - When pop star Michael Jackson performed in Taiwan's
second-largest city in 1996, the mayor gave him a meritorious achievement
award, a move that infuriated some politicians.
Although Jackson has been arrested on child molestation charges in California,
the politician who gave the award to the singer said he has no regrets.
``We were only honoring his artistic achievements,'' said former Kaohsiung
Mayor Wu Den-yih, now an opposition member of parliament.
``We weren't honoring him for his morals,'' Wu said. ``We kept the two things
separate.''
The singer has said on his new Web site that the allegations are ``predicated
on a big lie'' and that he will be exonerated in court.
Two city councilors said they objected to Jackson's award because of earlier
allegations the singer had improper relations with children. The allegations
never led to criminal charges and in 1994 the investigation became inactive.
Jackson had maintained his innocence but reportedly paid a multimillion-dollar
civil settlement.
