Dr. James Soong Announcing His Bid For The Presidency
Dear Friends,
Let me start by quoting Tagore. “It is the most distant course that comes nearest to thyself, and that training is the most intricate which leads to the utter simplicity of a tune.”
I’ve been traveling on this most distant course for 25 years! Five times I’d entered the race to become the President of the Republic of China and garnered nearly 18 million votes in total. To me, every vote is a life time of affirmation, for which I’m extremely grateful.
Election Day on January 11th of 2020 will mark the conclusion of my 6th and “final” campaign for the presidency. We are clear minded that the odds for James Soong winning the election are very low. But when I made up my mind to embark on the last mile of my political career it was without resentment or dismay. Just the opposite, I was freely content. The reason I am running this time is very similar to what motivated me to enter public service in the very beginning.
James Soong’s decision to serve was motivated by the belief in “God will reward the diligent.” This is a belief I’ve talked and written about most often and have for the past 25 years internalized as a motto to live by. “God will reward the diligent” came from the Book of Changes. It means God loves those that are diligent and will reward them with success. In another word, the teaching dovetailed perfectly with the Taiwanese people’s proud ethos of “winning by working hard!” A 77 year-old James Soong is running for president for the sixth time because one can only win by not being afraid to lose! By running, he wants to rekindle the pragmatic spirit the Taiwanese people was once famous for: “Winning by working hard!”
As a veteran of politics for over 40 years, I can proudly say I was a full participant and contributor to Taiwan’s evolving from an authoritarian system to a free and open democracy. I helped end martial law, lift the ban on political parties and press restrictions and amend Article 100 (domestic security) to end political persecution.
James Soong was instrumental in abolishing the “Permanent Congress” and paving the way for direct presidential elections and other democratic reforms.
During the peaceful revolution of the 80’s and 90’s, I felt deeply the pride and confidence of the Taiwanese people. Contrast with today’s polarization, chaos and stagnation, James Soong felt an obligation to once again stand up and stand with my fellow citizens. To renew and rediscover our pride and confidence!
Truth be told, I’d only contemplated running again on the morning of September 17, after Mr. Jerry Guo announced his withdrawal on the previous evening. I tossed and turned in bed that night worrying that if the Taiwanese people cannot free themselves of the “emotional blackmail” and “fear mongering” from the extreme partisans of the Blue and Green, it would be a tragedy for our country.
If a candidate with the international stature and the wherewithal did not come forward to help Taiwan navigate through the treacherous power game being played by the United States, China and Japan, it would be a pity.
Even though we are currently under such a gloomy and rueful cloud, I remain optimistic! That’s because I’m convinced Freedom and Democracy is Taiwan people’s common DNA. No party or politician will be able to sell Taiwan out. We have to have faith in each other and especially in our young. This generation of young people places a much higher bar for freedom and democracy than our generation.
I know many political activists who believe in and are genuine about “a welfare state that benefits all.” More than half of them are young people with bright futures. But our electoral system places a constraint on political parties other than the Blue and Green. For 25 years, it’s always been a battle of the two parties. There is no room for a third power to rise. If we don’t change our electoral system, Taiwan will always be drowning in the nightmare of the Blue-Green “emotional blackmail” and “fear mongering” and languishing in status quo!
January 11, 2020, will be James Soong’s “Final Battle.” I’ll be playing the role of “The Lonely Underdog.” I’ve been preparing myself for this battle for 44 years. For the first 14 years of my public service, I learned under the tutelage of the late former president, Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo, and the late former premier, Sun Yun Suan, on how to manage a country and to always have the people’s welfare in mind and be selfless. Then I was appointed the governor of the Province of Taiwan. I adhered to the principle of “every step taking is a step forward” and visited every corners of our island and learned that “there’s no such thing as a trivial matter when it comes to the issues concerning our people” and also “a tired official makes a higher citizenry.”
I love this passage in the Avatamsaka Sutra: “Stay true to oneself and enlightenment will come.” I am now carefree. My personal outcome is no longer important. I’ve completely put to rest my struggle of the past 44 years. James Soong is beginning his “Final Battle” without any burden or baggage.
This battle is not a battle for revenge. I firmly believe every political party in Taiwan has made real contribution to the country. My only wish is to open a new chapter for the freedom and democracy of Taiwan!
My wish is for the Republic of China to change from a quasi-presidential system to a parliamentary system.
My wish is for the voting age to be lowered to 18 so the younger generation can assume the mantle of their civic duty earlier. Also, for our educational system to be more grass root and less top down.
My wish is for a lower threshold for political party participation and a higher share of legislative safe seats for political parties.
My wish is for a lower requirement for the distribution of election finance funds so that elections are not limited to Blue and Green but multi-colored with a rainbow of small parties flourishing.
I sincerely wish Taiwanese voters can say goodbye to despair. To break free from the false dichotomy of “vote Green or Taiwan will desist” or “vote Blue or ROC is no more” perpetrated by the Blue-Green emotional wreckers. And stop punishing yourself by thinking the choices are only DPP, KMT, Cancel DPP or Never KMT. There are alternatives.
My wish is that every Taiwanese can put a spigot to their tears and exercise their free will. “Vote tearfully” is counter-productive to the cause of freedom and democracy and self destructive! Continuing down this path is not an option! I sincerely wish Taiwan can return to the ethos of “God will reward the diligent” of yesteryear, with every citizen believing in the maxim of “if you work hard, success will come!” and to overcome obstacles with mutual respect and tolerance.
Taiwan has the three advantages, including strategic geopolitical location, a highly cultivated society and democracy. We should treasure and use these advantages to the utmost! The Republic of China is a remarkable country. We are the perfect amalgamation of Chinese culture, Western culture, Japanese culture and indigenous Taiwan culture. We can delicately find our own way to flourish among the three powers of Sino-US-Japan. The road may be long and full of obstacles. But I am certain where there’s a will, there’s a way.
James Soong’s final battle is not for fame or fortune. Winning and losing is irrelevant. What matters is that Taiwan wins! ROC triumphs!

The Los Angeles Lakers drove a stake into the heart of the Philadelphia 76ers and staked their claim as the NBA's next dynasty.
Led by Shaquille O'Neal, the Lakers won their second straight title with a 108-96 victory in Game Five of the NBA Finals, completing the greatest postseason run in league history.
"A dream come true," O'Neal said. "I always knew we could do it, especially after the first one last year. I just knew that if we did what we were supposed to do that we could get it done."
"Team Shaq" has gone back-to-back, claiming its 13th championship. The Lakers did it by going 15-1, with the lone loss coming in overtime against the 76ers in the opener of this series.
That ended a 19-game winning streak, but O'Neal quickly restored order, powering the Lakers to four straight wins as he claimed his second straight NBA Finals Most Valuable Player award.
"The first championship was just to get the monkey off my back," O'Neal said. "The ones that I get from now on will just be to stamp my name in history -- as far as for myself, as far as for whatever team I'm on."
"It was an unbelievable run for us in the playoffs," said Lakers coach Phil Jackson, who won his eighth championship, one shy of the legendary Red Auerbach. "Their concentration was incredible during this period."
O'Neal collected 29 points and 13 rebounds in the clincher. He manhandled Defensive Player of the Year Dikembe Mutombo, averaging 33 points, 15.8 rebounds and 3.4 blocks in the series.
"His defense is really, I think, one of the keys for us winning," Jackson said. "He was a presence inside, both offensively and defensively."
O'Neal's impact was undeniable. Not only was he an unstoppable post presence, his teammates made a record 36-of-75 3-pointers playing off him.
"I've never seen a player better in my life," 76ers coach Larry Brown said. "I mean that."
"I'm drunk," O'Neal said as he entered the interview room. "A lotta champagne."
It was a lot of O'Neal, but it wasn't all him. It only seemed that way. Philadelphia native Kobe Bryant, -- heavily booed in his hometown throughout the series -- silenced this city with something less than brotherly love.
Bryant had 26 points and 12 rebounds, shaking off a poor first half. He averaged 24.6 points and was outstanding in each of LA's four wins, perfectly complementing O'Neal -- which was not always the case during the season.
"It's a thing in the past," Bryant said. "We'll do our best to try to keep a team effort, keep a community. Hopefully, we won't have to go through what we went through this year, and I don't think we will."
The Lakers did not exactly bury the 76ers. Following the script of the entire series, they allowed a huge lead to dwindle in the fourth quarter before two 3-pointers by Derek Fisher served as dual daggers to the heart the Sixers displayed to the very end.
NBA MVP Allen Iverson scored 37 points despite suffering another injury, this one to his ribs. He averaged 35.6 points in his first Finals and allowed a basketball-crazed city to believe it could topple Tinseltown.
"Allen told me he thought he cracked some ribs," Brown said. "They X-rayed it, I don't know, they didn't find that. It's what that kid's about. He had a phenomenal year.
"And I think being in this environment on this stage, people really recognize what an unbelievable competitor he is and what a great player."
Iverson's competitive spirit got the best of him. He walked off the court as the buzzer sounded, refusing to shake hands. He also blew off the postgame media session when he saw he had to wait for Bryant.
But the "Little Guy" and a big heart were nowhere near enough for the Sixers, who struggled on offense and saw their dogged defense decimated by a dynasty.
"They got our attention during the course of this series," said Jackson.
Injury-infiltrated Philadelphia fought hard in every game, but playing uphill took its toll and the Sixers were pushed back by the 7-2, 330-pound O'Neal, a mountain of a man and the NBA's king of the hill.
"It may not seem like I'm happy on my face," O'Neal said in the interview room. "I'm also greedy and I'm not done."
"Shaq has got more in him," Jackson said. "I expect him to have more than two championships before he's finished with this game."
Rick Fox scored 20 points for the Lakers and Fisher added 18, all on 3-pointers. LA made 12-of-17 from the arc, devastating the double-teams the Sixers ran at O'Neal.
Philadelphia's Tyrone Hill had his best postseason game with 18 points and 13 rebounds. Mutombo added 13 and 11 before fouling out and Eric Snow had 13 and 12 assists.
"They came out and proved to the world that they were a defending champion," Mutombo said.
Bryant scored seven quick points early in the final period to give the Lakers a 92-74 lead. But the Sixers would not allow any early celebration, putting together another of their patented pushes.
Hill's jumper made it 93-84 with 5:24 to play but Fisher drilled a 3-pointer. Mutombo fouled out with 3:41 left, but Philadelphia kept coming as Hill's three-point play cut the deficit to 100-92 with 1:51 to go.
Snow's free throw got it a point closer, but Fisher made another from the arc to seal it with 51 seconds left. Brown pulled his weary warriors off the floor to a standing ovation that lasted until the final horn as tears welled in Iverson's eyes.
Right before tip-off, the video scoreboard showed a hilarious cartoon that depicted O'Neal as a building-crushing monster before Iverson emerged as "Underdog" to save the day.
That got the crowd going and Snow's return to the starting lineup sparked the Sixers to their first opening-quarter lead of the series, 27-24. Mutombo held O'Neal relatively in check, Snow ran the offense and Iverson scored 11 points.
Iverson also collected three fouls, going hard to the floor after a collision with Bryant with 42 seconds to go. He began the second quarter on the bench with an ice pack on his right side and spent the early part of the period trying to stretch it out while missing three straight shots.
Meanwhile, O'Neal and the Lakers found some rhythm. Robert Horry made his seventh straight 3-pointer to pull LA into a 29-29 tie and O'Neal scored eight points in less than three minutes, including a short jumper that gave the Lakers the lead for good at 36-34 with 7:57 remaining.
O'Neal dropped in an alley-oop pass from Fox and Bryant sank a 3-pointer to extend the lead to 49-40 with 3:43 left before Iverson found his stroke again. He scored six quick points to get the Sixers back in it.
The Lakers led 52-48 at halftime behind 17 points by O'Neal and six 3-pointers. Iverson scored 19 points.
Bryant, who shot 2-of-10 in the first half, got untracked as the Lakers widened the gap in a foul-filled third quarter. He scored eight points and set a tone by going to the basket and attacking the offensive boards.
O'Neal and Matt Geiger had a staredown and received technical fouls. Bryant heard the "Kobe (stinks)" chants once again, but a 3-pointer by Fisher silenced the crowd and gave LA a 78-66 advantage with 2:24 to play. The Lakers led 83-68 entering the final period.
