四月七日奧運聖火巴黎傳遞親臨記
4月7日奧運聖火在巴黎傳遞,這是歷史性的大事,我也去看了。台灣看不到奧運聖火傳
遞,巴黎的我一定要看到。
在我所站的地方,身旁很多大陸留學生(我知道他們都是志願去的,因為有一位是我朋
友),拿著他們的五星紅旗以及自製標語。只有二位藏人(面容很容易辨別),身披雪
山獅子旗(西藏獨立的國旗),藏人的人數,比我想像的要少得多。倒是很多法國人,
或拿藏獨旗,或拿黑色小旗,上面畫有五個手銬環,排列方式與奧運的五環相同,

Sure.
I wonder why the Ma administration is so afraid of the proposed referendum
to vote up or down of ECFA?
Many in Taiwan want to be left alone, at their own risk. Isn't it smarter
for China to let Taiwan come back to beg for ECFA in the future, as opposed
to be in complicity with the Ma administration? The latter will fall in no
time; after that China gets a hostile regime similar to the post-Shah Iran
to America. The Ma administration can imprison former president Chen Shui-
