2Taiwan behind the Scenes of the Two Wars President Chiang Kai-shek asked to join the battles in Korean, rejected by Harry Truman.

Taiwan’s nationalist army sent task-forces to South Vietnam for logistics, military intelligence and training assignments.

Some military facilities in Taiwan were available for the US forces, mainly for the purpose of logistics.Slide3

5Truman’s “Hands-off” Policy US forces would not used to defend Taiwan.

Both the State Department and CIA predicted

that the island would be seized by Communist China before the end of 1950.Slide6

From The Korean War in HistoryThe US State Department’s document, top secret memorandum of 23 December 1949 stated that the “fall of Taiwan is anticipated”.(p.46)Western military and diplomatic representatives on Taiwan in May 1950 expected that Taiwan would fall “by 15 July 1950”. (p.46)

The Associated Press reported at the end of April 1950

that “ the PRC’s invasion will be in July”.(p.46)6

At the end of May 1950, the US Consulate-General in Taiwan advised all Americans to leave Taiwan as soon as possible, predicting a “Communist invasion within the next three months”. (p.46)Dean Acheson, at an Executive Session of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee on March 29, 1950, stated that the early fall of Taiwan was probably inevitable.(p.46)7

8The Korean WarApril 1950: Kim Il-sung travelled to Moscow and secured Stalin's support for a policy to unify Korea under his authority.

June 25, 1950: the North Korean People’s Army

(KPA) crossed the 38th parallel border and invaded South Korea.Slide9

9The Security Council, on 27 June 1950, published Resolution 83 recommending member states provide military assistance to the Republic of Korea.On the same day, Truman sent navy and air forces to Korea first.The US response: the nearby American troops were dispatched to engage KPA; also,

the Seventh Fleet of the US Navy was sent to “neutralize” the Taiwan Strait.Slide10

10The Domino Theory Domino Theory- On April 7,1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower articulated the domino theory when he described how a French loss in Indochina would be like knocking over the first domino in a row, causing the others to go over quickly.

Through this analogy he was saying that if Vietnam fell under communist control, then it would be difficult to prevent communist takeovers in Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and possibly even India, Japan, the Philippines, and Indonesia.

This chain-reaction concept was not new to U.S. containment policy. (p.112)Source:

11The CPC InvolvementOctober 8, 1950: Mao Zedong

redesignated the PLA North East Frontier Force as the Chinese 

People’s Volunteer Army (PVA).October 25: Two hundred thousand Chinese soldiers entered North Korea after crossing Yalu River.

The number of the soldiers: two and half million PVA soldiers continued to pour into Korea before the war ended in 1953.The number of the Chinese captives: more than 22 thousand soldiers captured.Slide12

12The Arrival at TaiwanAccording to Historical Dictionary of the Korean War

(Paul M. Edwards, 2010), among the captured Chinese soldiers, 14704

were non-repatriates.On January 23, 1954, they landed Keelung.

The day has thus been named “World Freedom Day,” an anti-communist memorial day in Taiwan.A great part of them had been in the nationalist army before 1949, and after their arrival in Taiwan, many were recruited again into the army.Slide13

During this Cold War period, the United States was willing to help any government who was opposed to communism, like the South Vietnamese government with the communist North Vietnamese government as it enemy.In his inaugural address, Kennedy made the ambitious pledge to “pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and success of liberty.”14

The Vietnam WarSlide15

15After the 7th Fleet sent to Taiwan in 1950, more and more bars emerged in Kaohsiung, and were not closed until the end of the Vietnam War in 1975.http://nrch.cca.gov.tw/ccahome/search/search_meta.jsp?xml_id=0002774587&dofile=getImage.jsp?d=1321255132923&id=0002779354&filename=cca100062-hp-ph010_032l-0001-i.jpgSlide16

20A Resort for R&R 1954:

the Sino-American Mutual Defense Treaty signed, promoting an emerging bar/dance hall/night club business. (

Bans lifted in 1958.) According to the Johnson Administration’s policy, in November 1965, the Pentagon planned to raise the number of US troops to 400,000. From

November 1965 to 1971, about 400,000 American soldiers went to Taiwan for vacation. To clear up the “aftermaths” of the vacations, the first venereal disease clinic was set up in Taipei in 1968.Slide21

Huang Chun-mingThe protagonist is a Taiwanese with a foreign degree in marketing and hotel management.In order to enhance an Oriental feeling, the bar’s name was renamed “Young Widow”.Toward the end of the story, the protagonist pulled out of the business in 1970, and turned to real estate industry.One of the American GIs survived the war, reunited with a bar girl in the end.

The Fall of South VietnamAfter Tet Offensive and the My Lai Massacre, the war got more notorious.

In 1968, the U.S. government passed the “

Vietnamization” policy.By 1973, U.S. military involvement ended.In 1975, the North Vietnamese army captured Saigon, which marked the end of the Vietnam War.

24Slide25

South Vietnam and Taiwan had built a strong relationship before the former’s fall into the hands of Viet Cong.President Nguyễn Văn Thiệu (1965-75) flew to Taipei before the fall of Saigon.According the coverage of Taiwan Review in February1980 (“Open Heart for Refugees”),

Taiwan used to take in refugees from Indochina as many as 13000

.Nearly 4,000 refugees were brought to Taiwan from April 23 to July 31 in 1975.25Vietnam and TaiwanSlide26

The government chartered planes to fly 3,075 refugees from Thailand to TaiwanThe flood of boat people began in 1977. Fishing vessels picked up refugees in the South China Sea.Buildings at a village in the Penghu Islands (Pescadores) were taken over and prepared for use as a refugee camp. By October of 1979, the agency had received nearly

1,500 Indochinese refugees at

Paisha Village [白沙鄉].As of the end of 1979, the Indochinese Refugee Reception Center [中南半島難民接待中心] in

Paisha still housed some 500 refugees.26Slide27

The contradictory and confusing1970s.On the one hand, its position in the international politics was getting more and more embarrassing after its retreat from the UN in 1971. On the other hand, Taiwan was experiencing the greatest economic boom since the end of World War II.Also, the legitimacy of KMT’s authoritarian domination started to be greatly questioned and challenged by Tangwai Movement [黨外運動, the movement lead by the social and political powers outside KMT party].

More about the Tattoos“The tattooing itself did not add to his worth, but its removal costs a million dollars. Ha! Everything in life is preordained.” (p.63)Wen Tienxiang’s “Song of Righteousness.” (p.63)

The meaning of the tattoos change with time. While it used to matter significantly in the 50s, it matters only in terms of money.

Reflection on the WarTang was captured even when he had had a chance to fire a shot.Is it really a war?Five Chinese POWs could be exchanged for only one American POW.

Americans worth five times as much as the Chinese.

35The Korean War and the Vietnam War Chinese lives were worthless! On the battledields of the Korean War, soldiers in their twenties and thirties died one on top of the other. The youngest were only fifteen or sixteen. After three months’ training, barely able to manage a bayonet, they were driven to the battlegrounds. The hand-to-hand combat drills were pointless, of course, since the Americans only fought from a distance. They never sent troops into hand-to-hand combat. Thrust!-Hey!-Thrust!-Hey!-

Hey-Hey- Hey!-Thrust!-Hey! But who’s going to use a bayonet? (p.64)

36The Dialogue with the Doctor “Why, no longer ‘ Anti-Communist’?”

The young doctor joked with him lightly, perhaps to make his patient relax a bit, Tang thought. “There’s no need for me to fight them,” he said confidently.

“They’re killing each other now!”“ And no more ‘Kill Zhu and Weed out Mao,’ either? Well, Mao means Mao Zedong, but who’s this Zhu?” “Zhu means Zhu De, their commander-in-chief then , ”he said.“ There’s no need for me to kill them now. They’ve both reported to Yama. Saved me the trouble.” The doctor wore gold-rimmed glasses. He had a baby face , looked just over twenty. What did this little brat know?(p.64-65)

40The Tattoo’s a Part of History Everything’s gone, he suddenly realizes. Gone is “Kill Zhu and Weed out Mao,” gone is “ Anti-Communist and Anti-Russia,” gone is the map, gone is the national flag, gone is “Succeed or Die.” From now on everything is wiped out, as if a ring worn for forty years were suddenly removed, leaving nothing but a white circle. White of complete emptiness. While of complete nothingness.

Where are those bloody oaths? The doctor says they are absorbed. But where do they go when they are absorbed? Into the blood, or the marrow?

Subconsciously, he touches the bowl-size scar. It’s still there, knotted like the bark of a tree. He feels a little more secure.(p.70)Source: Show Foong .(2003) .

First published in the supplement to China Times in December, 1972, Huang Chun-ming’s “The Taste of Apples” can be first of all interpreted as a political novel criticizing America’s great influence on Taiwan during the “U.S. Aid” period (1951-65).42Huang Chun-

ming [

黃春明]“The Taste of Apples” [蘋果的滋味] (1972)Slide43

In the story, according to the American junior secretary’s account, Taiwan is the Asian country with which the States had “the closest ties of friendship” (p.136). Ironically, it was exactly in February, 1972 that the once anti-communist Richard Nixon paid his official visits to places like Beijing, Hangzhou, and Shanghai, and met Mao Zedong. This was the first step that the States took to abandon its “closest friend” diplomatically in January 1979.

43

The Political ContextSource: Huang Chun-

ming.(2001) . (Howard Goldblatt, Trans.), The taste of apples : Taiwanese stories   New York : Columbia University PressSlide44

44What does this passage mean?

Following this remark, the children and Ah-gui

all began to eat their apples. The silence of the room was broken by the crisp sound of apples being bitten into, gingerly, one after another. As they took their first bites they said nothing, although they felt that the apples weren’t quite as sweet as they had imagined; rather, they were a little sour and pulpy, were reminded of their father’s comment that one apple cost as much as four catties of rice, and with that the flavor was enhanced.. When they took their second bites, they spiritedly bit off big chunks, with the result that the sickroom was filled with a chorus of loud munching. Ah-fa, who hadn’t wanted one at first, finally succumbed to the temptation. “Ah-zhu,” he said ,” hand me one of those.”(p.156)

Source: Huang Chun-ming.(2001) . (Howard Goldblatt, Trans.), The taste of apples : Taiwanese stories   New York : Columbia University PressSlide45

45Though the family, in the end, benefited from the car accident, some parts of the short story reveal how the American and Taiwanese failed to understand each other.For example, when the foreigner was led by the foreign affairs policeman to the area full of illegal shacks, the area’s labyrinthine alleys were for him only “a great place for a game of hide-and-seek” (p.136). What he did not understand was that those shacks were a part of the difficult lives of those men and women, like Jiang Ah-

fa and Ah-

gui, who could barely make a humble living on the edge of a city.The American among the Illegal Shacks

Source: Huang Chun-ming.(2001) . (Howard Goldblatt, Trans.), The taste of apples : Taiwanese stories   New York : Columbia University PressSlide46

Flat Characters – Ah-guiThis story is tragicomical in the sense that Huang used two vivid “flat characters” to tell a miserable story which might make reader laugh at the same time. First of all, Ah-gui started to worry and cry the moment she was notified of the accident; however, as she entered the black sedan with an opulent interior, she forgot to cry. Once she noticed that she should not stop crying, she gave rein “

to her grief with loud wails” (p.144).

46Source: Huang Chun-

ming.(2001) . (Howard Goldblatt, Trans.), The taste of apples : Taiwanese stories   New York : Columbia University PressSlide47

47Flat Characters – Ah-zhuThe second one is Ah-

zhu, the eldest child of the

Jiangs. Her response to the accident was completely different from her that of her mother: she though she will be definitely adopted out by her mother this time, for his father could not work to support the family. Even before this issue was brought up by her mother, her thoughts concentrated on it throughout the story and she even told her brother, Ah-ji, that she would give him the money to pay his long overdue tuition, which made him both confused and astonished.Slide48

The PolicemanWhat’s his “function”?The foreign affairs policeman and Ah-ji’s teacher both seem oppressive to their countrymen. For example, when Colonel Grant gave the Jiangs twenty thousand dollars, the policeman asked them to take it without indecision, and Ah-

fa was in fact lucky because he had been run down by an American, or he’d “probably still be lying in the road, covered with a grass mat” (154)

.48Source:

Huang Chun-ming.(2001) . (Howard Goldblatt, Trans.), The taste of apples : Taiwanese stories   New York : Columbia University PressSlide49

The TeacherThe homeroom teacher gave Ah-ji a real hard time: just because he could not pay the tuition on time, the child was made to stand in the corner in the classroom as punishment (p.140). This also shows, from Ah-ji’s

perspective, the city in the northern Taiwan was no better than their native rural village down south, where he had never been punished for this reason.

Obviously, he shared the same opinion to some extent with her mother. 49

Source: Huang Chun-ming.(2001) . (Howard Goldblatt, Trans.), The taste of apples : Taiwanese stories   New York : Columbia University PressSlide50

The Nativist-realist PerspectiveIs it really better off to live in the city than to live in the country? Almost all Taiwanese Nativist-realist novelists gave us negative answers. Just as the case in this story, the

Jiangs went from the country to the city to search for a better life, though without success. They could only afford to live in an illegal shack, the parents could not pay for the tuition, the elder daughter could not get away from the terror of being sold to another family, and the accident happened to the father seemed to be the last straw.

50Slide51

Telling vs. Showing During the early morning hours, as thick layers of clouds were beginning to send their moisture downward, an automobile accident occurred at the intersection where the road from the eastern suburbs enters the city. A dark green sedan with a foreigner’s license plate crashed into a rickety old bicycle like a wild animal pouncing on its prey, crushing it on the other side of the yellow dividing line of the two –lane highway. A pickaxe was still securely fastened to the bicycle rack, which protruded from under the car, but the contents of a lunch box-mainly rice-that had been tied to the handlebars were scattered all over the street, the solitary salted egg that had accompanied the rice lying smashed at the edge of the safety island.(p.135)

Telling vs. Showing The rain was coming down harder now, and the puddle of congealed blood in front of the sedan was being washed away. Several foreign and local MPs were busily trying to determine the circumstances of the accident.(p.135)
