台灣民主路

Hi, 羅 先生 and all,

May I share a few photos taken with Mrs. Bellocchi at TAAGWC(大華府台灣同鄉會)'s annual party and at her residence, with you all? In memory of an extra-ordinary friend and an inspirational mentor in Taiwan democracy, Ambassador Bellocchi, may I also express my feelings in H3LP for your reference?

懷念白樂崎 (大使)

前後熟識二十年 (至少)

常透見面談政治 (台美中)

記得七年前

冰天雪地寒冬夜

登門送禮賀退休 (Big Ben retired from The Washington Post after 20 plus years of service.)

永記白樂崎

研讀「台灣民主路」(The path to Taiwan democracy, memories of an American diplomat. Ambassador Nat H. Bellocchi)

深感一世台灣情

With this H3LP in mind and being aware that DPP and Chairman Tsai have paid any attention to this old Taiwan Hakka fool, Big Ben can not help offering a couple more thoughts for them to beat their brains out in this crucial year of election in Taiwan.

1. Would it be nice to see the Democracy Institute of DPP to use Mr. Bellocchi's book as one of their textbooks in its programs?

2. Would it be wonderful to see lady Tsai paying Mrs. Bellocchi a brief visit and showing the human side of an iron lady on her Washington, DC trip?

Best regards,

Big Ben 3/15/2015
