...Lien's ungracious speech after the election, urging that the election be declared null and void, has created some anxiety among foreign observers. My belief is that Lien has again shown that he lacks leadership ability - but that Taiwan will survive this challenge to its democratisation and move forward, with younger Nationalist leaders replacing Lien and Soong...



...連戰選後粗野的發言，宣稱選舉無效，引起了國外觀察者們的擔憂。我相信連戰再次表現出他缺乏領導能力。不過，台灣依然能度過這次對民主的挑戰並繼續前進，而年輕的國民黨領導者將取代連宋...

...On Saturday night, after a hard fought presidential campaign and a whisker-thin loss at the ballot box, the KMT coalition lashed out in a decidedly undemocratic way.

... After the opposition Kuomintang (KMT) lost the election, its candidate Lien Chan appeared to incite further speculation by referring to unspecified "doubts" and calling the result unfair. What evidence is there to back these claims? Very little, at least so far.



在國民黨輸掉選戰之後，候選人連戰提出不確定的懷疑引發更多的猜測，並且宣稱選舉不公。看看哪些證據支持這項主張？到目前仍然非常少。
