Season’s Greetings

Posted on December 23, 2008

That was from George Herbert Walker Bush, the 41st President of the United States from 1989 to 1993. Of course, he did not write to me. It was part of the letter to late Madame Chiang Kai-Shek, who wrote to Bush a month earlier:

    Nah. The Regional Adm. letter looks extremely fake.

    It’s in traditional Chinese! Get your act together, man.

    PS. I am an Atheist. And I am happy to wish all of you a Merry Christmas. I admire all good thing in any religion. I just happen to not believe in any of them.

    I think it is logical to assume the possibility of calling “Chinese Taipei, S. A. R.” or “Taiwan, S.A.R.”?
