    Letter: Ma's words laughable

    By Anna Chang

    Thursday, Jun 22, 2006, Page 8

    I can only laugh at Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Chairman Ma Ying-jeou's (馬英九) comments about teaching our children not to be corrupt.

    It was 50 years of KMT rule that taught people how to cheat and be corrupt in the first place. It will be a long time before people manage to get the party's corrupt ways out of their system.

    This is maybe why the president's son in-law learned his bad ways from his father, who belonged to the KMT.

    On Ma's remarks that the president does not have love for his country: The president has the utmost love and respect for Taiwan, unlike the KMT which has used and abused Taiwan for 50 years and whose members have never considered it their home. As for the alleged corruption of the first family: You are innocent until proven guilty.

    Harvard-educated Ma should know better than that. If anyone does not know how to spell the word "shame," it is you, Ma. Shame on you as you are no better than People First Party Chairman James Soong (宋楚瑜) and former KMT chairman Lien Chan (連戰). All you want is to get back the power your party once wielded at any cost.
