Dear Mrs. Madeleine Korbel Albright,

It is a long story'

I have found the basic principle in Beijing's Taiwan policy remains unchanged. The communist government reiterated its persistent long-held principles of "peaceful reunification" and "one country, two systems".

This means that Taiwan must unify with the communist-ruled Chinese mainland with each side preserving its own system.

To achieve the goal of reunification Beijing urged party and government officials to create favorable condition by promoting a full range of normalization of relations across the Taiwan strait. This includes the strengthening of economic cooperation, the opening of direct sea and air links, and the promotion of visits to the mainland by Taiwan residents.

By self-contradictory; it will definitely not help if Beijing continues to sabotage Taiwan's diplomatic relations and isolate it from the international community. In this regard, Taipei is closely watching to see whether Beijing will use its late June summit meeting with U.S. President Bill Clinton to undermine Washington's relations and support for Taiwan.

Taipei, May 14

--- Taipei on Thursday(May 14, 1998) rejected mainland China's renewed call for reunification under the "one country, two systems" model Beijing uses to govern Hong Kong, with top officials here saying it was "unacceptable".

We have a very adequately reason that Taiwan people reject the "one country, two systems" model. Beijing's communism was unacceptable in Taiwan's democracy.

At the last; I give a heartily respect for you and your government.

 

 

Sincerely Yours,
Yang Hsu-Tung.
