Aprašymas

Wu San-Lien was one of Taiwan’s most respected senior statesmen in the country’s formative years in the post-World War II era. Wu grew up in poverty and, despite all odds, found a way to study journalism in Japan. His belief in the rights of the people of Taiwan soon led him to seek a life in politics. He strongly opposed Japanese policies in Taiwan when it was under Japanese rule, and after Taiwan became part of the Republic of China, Wu was elected to the National Assembly. He was mayor of Taipei, the first to be chosen for the office in a popular election, and was later elected to Taiwan’s Provincial Assembly. Wu also started several business ventures, including the Universal Cement Corporation and Tainan Textile Company. Wu eventually returned to his roots as a journalist when he became the executive director and publisher (and later, president) of the Independence Evening Post, which was the most influential and respected newspaper in the country in its day.
Memoirs of Wu San-Lien is a collection of Wu’s reflections on his childhood, family, and career. It describes the personal and public challenges he faced, the people who helped him along the way, and the events that shaped his life. It is also about a leader who valued integrity, democracy, and public service, and a man who cherished his country and the people of Taiwan.
