ISSUE: a news in Taipei Times about that the independence supporters surrounded the Legislative Yuan

Today I read a news in Taipei Times about that the independence supporters surrounded the Legislative Yuan yesterday, protesting what they called the body’s inaction against former Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) legislator Diane Lee over her alleged dual nationality. The protesters insisted that the legislature formally remove Lee from her post, in addition to her resignation a day earlier.

According to media report, Lee is suspected of holding US citizenship in violation of the Nationality Act (國籍法), but has said that she automatically lost her US citizenship when she was sworn in as a Taipei City councilor 14 years ago.


I redeem Lee betrays her voters. The Nationality Act asks all legislators to give up their foreign citizenship identity formally. She didn’t do it. Moreover, she lies to the society again and again. Such politician is the shame of my country.
