Protesters hold placards during a rally
outside the Chung Hwa Travel Service, a Taiwan representative
organisation, in Hong Kong February 28,2006, to protest against Taiwan
leader Chen Shui-bian's decision to abolish the island's national
unification council and its guidelines. Chen announced the decision to
terminate the "national unification council" and the "national unification
guidelines" after a one-hour meeting with Taiwan's top security agency,
the "national security council." The protesters criticized Chen for
betraying his 2000 pledge and endangering cross-Straits
ties.[newsphoto] |
