Ping!
Thanks for posting this. I'm trying to think of other famous folks whose whereabouts are unknown (outside of celebrities, hwo I don't care about).
I am sbsolutely delighted that he is alive. What he did took real courage, and he is an icon of liberty.
Better still, he's in a free country.
Regards, Ivan
The National Palace Museum is in southern Taiwan?
That is what the article said. Is it in Taipei?
Hail the hero! Confusion to the Chi-Comms! Let freedom and democracy sweep across the globe.
one of you bones dudes.
I suppose one might read that as Wang is currently living in southern Taiwan as a consultant to the National Palace Museum, which is in northern Taiwan just outside Taipei...
What a miraculous image that was - like the fall of the Berlin Wall.
I've always presumed the story did not have a happy ending.
I hope it is true. I want to see more confirmation.
i doubt he will working there tomorrow if that is really him.
I remember there was reports that the Tank crew was either executed or had long prison sentences. and the "tank man" was executed... but obviously at that time reports where sketchy at best.
Of course he will be there tomorrow......Apart from tanks, I wonder what else this guy eats for breakfast.
My question is, how does he manage to walk with balls that big?
Don't bring tanks to a flag fight.
Unforgettable memory.
That man is nothing less than a walking, talking Middle Finger in the face of the ChiComms! I love it!!!
May the world never forget what happened on this date in 1989 (Tiananmen Square). In Cantonese, the words luhk sei (06/04) sound like the words for "Mainland died." Part of Mainland China died that day.
Yeah, "Land Died."
LOL
