When asked whether the foundation would accept donations from China, Presidential Office Secretary-General Liao Liou-yi (廖了以), vice chairman of the foundation, said the committee had not discussed the issue, but would “try to reject” any donation that was “sensitive” in nature.
Tsai Shih-ping (蔡詩萍), chief executive officer of the foundation, said the funding would “mainly” come from the private sector and that the government had not allocated any money for the foundation next year.
While Beijing invited Taiwanese politicians to attend its national day celebrations on Oct. 1, Liao said the foundation would deal with the matter of who to invite carefully.
