Remembering another 228
Dear President Ma,
Yesterday was the 62nd anniversary of the terrible tragedy of 28 February 1947. While I appreciate your efforts in making amends to all people who were affected by the terrible events of that day, I think the KMT can do better in its sincerity about its responsibility for what happened.
While you are promising to get to the bottom of who was responsible for 228, what progress have you made in the other February 28th tragedy? Remember when you were running for president, you promised that you would find the culprits behind the Lin Family murders? Please don’t forget to keep your promise to do so. Those responsible for this terrible crime and tragedy must be brought to justice.
Mr. President, you have said that we need to learn from the past to have a better future, but we must investigate it thoroughly in order to do so. I sincerely hope that uncovering the truth about what happened can resolve the social divide that splits and polarizes Taiwan.
Sincerely,
James
