                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BILL SHUSTER

                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 15, 2003

  Mr. SHUSTER. Mr. Speaker, Taiwan will be celebrating their 
president's third anniversary in office this May 20. Their president, 
Mr. Chen Shui-bian, has shown leadership and wisdom in the last three 
years.
  Taiwan enjoys one of the highest standards of living in Asia and a 
good strong relationship with the United States. Taiwan stood shoulder 
to shoulder with the United States after 9/11 and gave us total support 
in our war with Iraq.
  May Taiwan continue to enjoy economic prosperity and an ever stronger 
relationship with the United States. May Taiwan be successful in 
stopping the spread of SARS and in returning to the World Health 
Organization soon.
