  • Description: [...]after the United States switched its recognition from the Republic of China to the PRC in 1979, and Taiwan subsequently transitioned from martial law into a democracy, the wall grew silent while the gleaming city of Xiamen burst from the once-quaint Chinese shoreline. Annette Lu, a former DPP legislator who was Taiwan’s vice president under Chen Shui-bian, recently panned Tsai and Vice President Chen Chien-jien for failing to show up to the 60th anniversary of the 823 Artillery Bombardment, in which the PLA sparked the Second Taiwan Strait Crisis by shelling Kinmen, killing 440 ROC soldiers. National Quemoy University Department of Tourism Management Associate Professor Peter Tsai (left), Vice President Horng Ji-hwei (center), and Department of Business Management Professor Yvonne Yen (right). When Tsai, shortly after being defeated by Ma Ying-jeou in the 2012 presidential election, delivered NQU’s 2013 commencement address, she held a closed-door meeting with scholars and Kinmen community leaders.
