                      Tuesday, September 20, 2011

  Ms. LORETTA SANCHEZ of California. Mr. Speaker, 100 years ago on 
October 10, Sun Yat-sen, a Chinese doctor, led his people to overthrow 
the dynastic rule that governed his people for many centuries.
  We have celebrated his achievements and his advocacy of his three 
principles of the people: Nationalism, Democracy, and the People's 
Livelihood.
  Today, these three principles have been the legacy of Taiwan's 
President, Ma Ying-jeou, playing an integral role in making the 
Republic of China (Taiwan) a vibrant democracy and a leading force in 
today's international community.
  We congratulate Taiwan on the historic celebration of their 100th 
anniversary.
