TRIBUTE TO DR. LYUSHUN SHEN, DIRECTOR OF CONGRESSIONAL AFFAIRS, TAIWAN 
                                MISSION

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. JOE SCARBOROUGH

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, September 27, 1996

  Mr. SCARBOROUGH. Mr. Speaker, earlier today I paid tribute to the 
brave people of the Republic of China on Taiwan. I should now like to 
single out for particular mention one citizen of that nation who has 
distinguished himself in its service.
  Dr. Lyushun Shen has served for the last 2 years as the Director of 
Congressional Affairs for the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in 
the United States. In that capacity, Dr. Shen has proven to be a most 
able diplomat, making a substantive and important contribution to the 
betterment of relations between Taipei and Washington, DC. In the 
continuing effort to bring amity and greater understanding between the 
Republic of China on Taiwan and the United States, Dr. Shen has been a 
crucial player.
  Dr. Shen is now leaving to return to Taipei for a promotion. I am 
sure I join all of my colleagues who have worked with Dr. Shen in 
wishing him Godspeed and best wishes in his next assignment.
