 --------------Separately
 (1) Editorial, Taipei Fault Lines; Ma Ying-jeou can't mollify China all the time. Asia Wall Street Journal, Sept. 2, 2009
 http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204731804574384154143519662.html
 ("The Kuomintang also sent a representative to Beijing last week to discuss the Dalai Lama's trip. To their critics, this sounds an awful lot like asking Beijing's permission for what should be a domestic decision.")
 
 (2) Taiwan's foreign exchange reserves hit record high in August. DPA (Germany), Sept. 4, 2009
 http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/284226,taiwans-foreign-exchange-reserves-hit-record-high-in-august.html
 (increased $4.3bn to $325.4 bn, through the appreciation of the euro, Japanese yen against the US dollar")
 
 (3) 2009 Kaohsiung Film Festival between October 16-29 to screen, among other films, "Ten Conditions of Love" on the World Uighur Congress leader Rebiya Kadeer. Organiser Liu Hsiu-ying, a woman, added that it was a coincidence that none of them was from China.
 
 My comment:
 (a) I guess the coincidence is convenient, so that no PRC director or film can boycott the festival.
 (b) Kaohsiung City Government (KCG) is a cosponsor of the film festival. Mayor Chen Chu 陳菊 again!
 
 Regarding the film festival, see
 Ocean Capital Kaohsiung, December 2001.
 http://kcginfo.kcg.gov.tw/english/index.php?strurl1=publication&strurl=a2/9012.htm
 ("Cosponsored by the Kaohsiung Cultural Foundation, Tainan National College of the Arts, and KCG's Department of Information, the first Kaohsiung Film Festival [in 2001] proved to be a big success.")
 
 (4) China boycotted the opening ceremony of the Taipei-hosted Deaf Olympics on Saturday, apparently to protest the presence of Taiwanese President Ma Ying-jeou at the event.

 (New director S, Alice Mong of Museum of Chinese in America was "born in Taiwan and raised in Virginia and Ohio")
