Two Quots from I-Reading



"一九九六年柯林頓在民主黨提名大會的演說中說:「我深愛並崇敬美國歷史上的富足與驕傲。因而我決定要帶著這些美好的傳統邁向未來。我們需要與未來文明世紀搭起橋樑,而這就是我提供給你們的承諾。所以就從今夜起,讓我們下定決心建立起通往二十一世紀文明之網,面對我們的挑戰,同時保護我們的價值」。" --Bill Clinton

"美國之所以可貴,不在它既有的財富,而在它未來的機會;美國之可愛,不在科技突破帶來的「混沌」,而在社會富裕孕育出來的生活情趣;美國最令人嚮往的就在於它是一個可以自由自在、自由呼吸、自我發展的自由天地!" --Chinese Young man on I-Reading

Different perspective to Tien-An-Mien Square Event

There is one thing I would like to share different point of view about the decision made by the authority in China during Tian-An-Mien Square event. Mr. Jou resigned from his position instructed by higher authority after his inappropriated public speech in front of the crowd at the very moment of high tention, which he said: "Students! I am no longer to be able to protect you...."

Considering of the position of a government watching over this protest and in deep of worry the breaking point of riot; remove a person who was appointed by government to making the whole thing under control but the turn out is Mr. Jou intend to worsen the whole situation or he might is planning to gain the support from the crowd in order to increasing his politic asset. This removal should be counted as a wise dicision before the number of crowd grow increasingly out of control.

I always try to remind many of Chinese in Taiwan or overseas, China is a big country as USA, which credibility and maturity of Democracy and Freedom need more time to developing by live in longer peace. I personaly do not have any favor or opinion about Mr. Jou or students, I just remind each of us try to look at one thing by different perspective. It is a very proper decision for a government to keep the integrity of the country when we looking back the condition of China at that time economically and governmentally. Young people has passion and is always easier to be manipulated by people with intention.

The whole world wish a big country like China in Asia can be defeated as a piece of cake. They wish there is no any other unity can be compatible with the "White Power" on this earth.

I am sorry to use the term of "White Power", you would understand why I use this term if you live in USA and knows to fill out all kinds of forms provide by USA government. USA government divid human and its citizen by using "White" as one major & big catagory regardless where these "White" come from. To a Chinese American like me, this major "White" catagory is an eye sore description and I do see it is awkward to other citizen while many of us being devided into very detailed dicribed catagories.
