Transcript

RICHARD BUSH: One of the most significant developments of this year, 2008, is the initiative that your President Ma Ying-jeou has taken to try to reduce tensions and normalize relations with mainland China, and nobody knows where that effort will lead. It may work out to stabilize cross-strait relations, it may not work out. It remains to be seen. But this is a development that is important for this entire region and each country and place in the region has views on this development. And the purpose of our session today is to introduce you to the views of different places in the region about this initiative by President Ma Ying-jeou.

We deeply appreciate the opportunity to bring this program to you today and we deeply appreciate the efforts of Dr. Liu Fu-kuo and the hard work of him and his colleagues to make this possible. So, without further ado, why don’t we get started? I’m going to sit down.
