  Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas. Mr. Speaker, In a day when crime and 
juvenile delinquency are growing concerns internationally, I would like 
to commend a group of outstanding young people who are striving to set 
a new standard of strong moral character and social good works in our 
Nation and around the world.
  Among these young people are 67 individuals who recently traveled to 
Taiwan, Republic of China on March 17, 1994, and visited the cities of 
Taichung and Taipei before departing on March 28, 1994.
  The leaders with whom they met included the President of the Republic 
of China, President Lee Teng-hui; Dr. Yang Po-fa, Political Vice-
Minister of the Ministry of Interior; Dr. Bai Hsui-hsiung, Director of 
the Department of Social Affairs; Dr. Chen Ying-hau, Commissioner of 
Education for the Taiwan Provincial Government; Taichung Mayor Lin 
Porung, and the education heads of both Taipei and Taichung. In the 
course of these contacts, invitations were extended for additional 
groups of these young people to come to Taiwan and initiate long-term 
work with Chinese youth and families.
