  Mr. AKIN. Mr. Speaker, the National Day of the Republic of China 
(Taiwan) is today, October 10. I would like to recognize this day of 
celebration.
  Americans are thankful for our faithful friends in Taiwan. We 
appreciate all nations that stand for freedom and oppose terrorism. I 
wish to extend my best to the citizens of America who came from Taiwan 
as they recall this National Day of Freedom in their former homeland.
