(Central News Agency, Reporter Tsai Chih-Ming, Yunlin County, May 9) Kuomintang Chairwoman Cheng Li-Wen wore a Zhongshan suit tonight to participate in the "Yunlin Night" catwalk; she stated that the five buttons on the front of the Zhongshan suit represent the "Five-Power Constitution," and the three buttons on the sleeves represent the "Three Principles of the People," to highlight the 160th anniversary of the founding father Sun Yat-sen's birth this year.
The Yunlin County Government held the "Ten Thousand People Filial Piety Foot Washing" event and the "Yunlin Night" gala tonight at the County Stadium. Cheng Li-Wen returned to her hometown to participate in the gala alongside Yunlin County Magistrate Chang Li-Shan, and Kuomintang Legislators Chang Chia-Chun and Hsu Yu-Chen, walking the catwalk with outstanding Yunlin natives from across Taiwan and the world.
In her speech before the catwalk, Cheng Li-Wen said that this year marks Sun Yat-sen's 160th birthday, and there are related commemorative activities worldwide. Therefore, she specifically prepared a Zhongshan suit for the catwalk today, explaining that the five buttons on the front of the garment symbolize the "Five-Power Constitution," and the three buttons on the sleeves represent the "Three Principles of the People," embodying the founding father Sun Yat-sen's spirit of universal love and public service.
She also cited Sun Yat-sen's perseverance in overthrowing the Qing Dynasty, becoming stronger with each setback, and ultimately succeeding despite difficulties and dangers, which resonates with Yunlin County's spirit of forging a path in a challenging environment.
Cheng Li-Wen stated that she is from Hukou, Yunlin. Tomorrow is Mother's Day, and many Yunlin natives have returned to their home county to celebrate Mother's Day. Today's Yunlin County has been completely revitalized; it is no longer the impoverished Yunlin but a modern and international Yunlin, making everyone proud to be from Yunlin.
Cheng Li-Wen also praised Chang Li-Shan as the most diligent county magistrate, not just a "Golden Peak Battery" but "nuclear-powered," with infinite energy, working every minute and second for county affairs. (Edited by: Chang Ming-Kun) 1150509
