    Extractions: History Little is known about the history and social organization of Taiwan’s Aborigines prior to their earliest contact with outsiders. It is known that as early as the second century A.D., imperial China sent occasional raiding parties to the island in search of booty and slaves. However, from the seventh century on, the Chinese government consistently expressed the view that the big island across the strait was a savage place, "a mudball beyond the sea, not worthy of China." The Chinese people, unlike their governments, have never let cultural and racial ideology interfere with commerce, however. Also, other ocean-going peoples soon became interested in the island as a trading partner and because of its strategic location in sea lanes that remain important to this day. The Aborigines, on Taiwan began trading deer hides and meat, along with various forests products, for metal and other goods. By the 12th century, enterprising Chinese briefly established settlements in the Pescadores, and occasionally engaged in trade with Taiwan. Japanese traders also frequently visited the island, and in the 14th century they established a settlement near the present-day city of Taiwan. Attracted by near by Anping harbor, the Japanese called the island "tai Wan," or Big Bay. Colonial Rule European arrived on the scene by the 16th century. Portuguese sailors, struck by the towering, forested peaks and magnificent beaches that they saw as they sailed past Taiwan, called it "Ilha Formosa," the beautiful Island. Until recently, Formosa remained the most common English name, but Taiwan is now widely used.

    Extractions: Thursday, Jan 23, 2003,Page 8 There was much hustle and bustle in the run-up to the 15th anniversary of late president Chiang Ching-kuo's ½±¸g°ê death. Former president Lee Teng-hui §õµn½÷ released a book; Taipei Mayor Ma Ying-jeou °¨­^¤E wrote articles; the KMT held events commemorating him; and the media conducted extensive public opinion polls. But their interpretations of his legacy were nauseatingly divergent. How does this kind of behavior differ from attempts by imperial-era intellectuals to manipulate history in order to smear the reputations of previous dynasties and create legitimacy for themselves? History has been a political tool ever since those days. Everyone in power wants to give it a facelift so that it fits his or her own political needs and values. Can history still be called history when it is saturated with the intellectual equivalent of silicon and botulism toxins?

    Extractions: History The Good Shepherd Sisters in Taiwan form part of a worldwide religious organization dedicated to uplifting and rehabilitating girls and women marginalized by society. Their current international presence began with the work of St. John Eudes more than 350 years ago. This French priest's talent for speaking touched the hearts of come women who worked as prostitutes and kindled within them the desire to change their lives. In response to their needs, St. John Eudes established a refuge. Soon he realized that the moral degradation surrounding prostitution extended to other areas as well. In 1641, he founded a religious congregation to support an expanded program that included rape and incest victims as well as those trying to break free from the chains or prostitution. In 1816, St. Mary Euphrasia entered this congregation. She felt a strong conviction that the group's work should be extended to women prisoners who were often sexually exploited by their incarcerators. She also saw preventative work as vital. With the support of the Roman Catholic Church, she founded the Good Shepherd Sisters Congregation in 1835. This was just the beginning. In her lifetime, she established 110 working convents on six continents dedicated to helping women and children. She recognized early that different cultures require different approached to effect change, and that philosophical legacy - adept to the needs of time and place - still guides the work today.

    http://www.taiwannation.com.tw/english.htm
    
    Extractions: Taiwan was known as Yizhou (barbarian¡¦s island) or Liuqiu (Okinawa) in antiquities. Many historical records and annals documented the development of Taiwan by the Chinese people in earlier periods. References to this effect were to be found in ancient Chinese book written more than 1,700 years ago and several others written in later times. Since early seventeenth century the Chinese people began to step up the development of Taiwan. The numbers topped one hundred thousand at the end of the century. By 1893 their population exceeded 2.54 million. That was a 25-fold increase in 200 years. They brought in a more advanced mode of production and settled the whole length and breadth of Taiwan. Thanks to the determined efforts and hard toil of the pioneers, the development of the island as a whole greatly accelerated. This was the historical fact of how Taiwan, like other parts of China, came to be opened up and settled by the Chinese people of various nationalities. >From the very beginning the Taiwan society derived from the source of Chinese cultural tradition. This basic fact had not changed even during the half century of Japanese occupation. The history of Taiwan¡¦s development is imbued with the blood, sweat, and ingenuity of the Chinese people.

    Extractions: Taipei, Jan. 20 (CNA) President Chen Shui-bian on Tuesday urged the public to go to the polls in "a joyful spirit" for the first referendum in Taiwan March 20 in concert with the presidential election, as they will be writing a new chapter in Taiwan's history. The president, who concurrently serves as the chairman of the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), made the remarks prior to a regular meeting of the DPP's Central Standing Committee. In addition to wishing the people a very prosperous Chinese Lunar New Year, the president also took the chance to elaborate on the significance of the first referendum on Taiwan's history and democratic progress. The president said that he appreciated the positive response by the international community after he announced the two questions last Friday namely, the possible need to strengthening the nation's anti-missile capabilities and the establishment of a "peaceful and stable" framework for cross-strait interchanges, adding that the referendum will be a milestone in strengthening Taiwan's democracy. "Whether from the angle of Chinese in the world or the international community, Taiwan's economic achievements and democratic improvements have been success stories, and are shared assets of universal values," the president said. "On March 20, 2004, Taiwan will stride toward a historic apex of its democratic development," the president said, adding that "we must have confidence in ourselves."

    Extractions: As one of the ancient handicrafts of China, embroidery has greatly contributed to the progress and enhancement of China's material civilization. Historical documents record the use of embroidery in China as early as 2255 B.C. Archaeological finds, however, place the beginnings of embroidery at some point during the Shang dynasty (1766 B.C. to 1122 B.C.). Originally used to signify one's caste position, embroidery later came to have a purely ornamental value and common people. As embroidery developed, its artistic features multiplied. Archaeological discoveries reveal that while embroidery remained crudely simple throughout the Chou dynasty, it became increasingly sophisticated during the Warring State Period (475-221 B.C.), and reached an aesthetic peak in the Han dynasty (206 B.C.-221 A.D.). The economic prosperity of the Han dynasty supported the rise of numerous cottage industries, one of which the silk weaving industry was crucial to embroidery. Furthermore, as the number of rich and privileged people increased, so did the demand for embroidery. With a strong supply of raw materials and robust market demand, embroidery flourished.

    Extractions: Subscriptions By Philip Bowring International Herald Tribune HONG KONG - The inauguration Saturday of Chen Shui-bian as president of the Republic of China, better known as Taiwan, is an opportunity for a reworking of relations across the Taiwan Strait. But progress requires more than just a skillful choice of words by President Chen. Above all it needs a better understanding by Beijing of the consequences of Taiwan's long detachment from the mainland. It is not just another province, but an island with its own singular history. In the first instance, Mr. Chen will need to address in some form Beijing's demand that Taiwan recognize the ''one China'' principle, despite his party's theoretical commitment to Taiwan's independence. Squaring this circle should not be beyond the wit of Mr. Chen's wordsmiths, provided that Beijing is in a listening mood and does not want to keep banging a nationalist drum over Taiwan for internal purposes. Few object to the notion that in an ideal world all Chinese people should be under one political umbrella. Like world government, it is a remote prospect, but not one worth arguing with. Mr. Chen has the advantage of relative youth, having been educated both after the Japanese occupation and the Chinese civil war. His Taiwanese identity is the product of his own experience, not of ideology or foreign domination. Nor does he carry what Beijing regards as the stigma of Lee Teng-hui's affinity for the Japanese culture in which he was educated.
