Image description

China's most prominent critic of one-party Communist rule, Wei Jingsheng, gets in a car at Taoyuan Chiang Kai-shek international airport December 21 at the start of his first visit to Taiwan, Beijing's arch rival, where he expected to meet senior officials and possibly President Lee Teng-hui. Wei, who was sent into exile in the United States in 1997 after spending much of the 1980's and 1990's in Chinese prisons for advocating democracy, has said he was eager to learn more about the political liberalisation that has transformed Taiwan from an authoritarian one-party state into one of Asia's freest democracies.
