EDITORIAL: KMT’s whitewashing not forgotten
Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Chairman Johnny Chiang (江啟臣) on Thursday said that the party must face the mistakes it made during the White Terror era with honesty and humility, adding that “history cannot be forgotten.”
Chiang made the comments during a tour of the National Human Rights Museum in New Taipei City to commemorate International Human Rights Day and the 41st anniversary of the Kaohsiung Incident.
The 48-year-old Chiang was just 15 when martial law was lifted by then-president Chiang Ching-kuo (蔣經國) on July 15, 1987, and is at least two decades younger than prior chairs of the party responsible for martial law and the White Terror.
