What about approaching ICRT with this story? Since it is an English radio station, I thought that might be a good way to get the story out? Would make worrying about getting everything translated into and being questioned in Chinese no longer a problem. I am a broken record, I know, but I just wish there was someway for the public to know about this story so they could at least be made aware of what is going on.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I think it might be of more interest to ICRT if some of you who have been following this story contact them about it...it'll show there's an audience for this other than just me. Previously I've contacted the three English-language newspapers, plus several Chinese-language media, in Taiwan with very poor results so far.

I'll be contacting some more international media about this story, but it'll add more interest and urgency to getting this story out if those of you who have been interested readers of my posts and blogs also contacted some media.

I just emailed them with links to here, your blog and facebook page. I also gave them a quick overview of things. I honestly doubt they will do anything, but worth a shot.

Today I got an unsigned reply letter from the office of the President Ma Ying-jeou. Basically, the usual bureaucratic response avoiding any meaningful answers or help with the issues I wrote to President Ma about.

His office did show its sense of humor, however, by pointing out in the letter that "we are a nation based on democracy and rule of law..."

And I ask you President Ma: "Which rule of law in Taiwan is it that denies me my right to speak in court and present the evidence which proves my innocence?"

I'll post the letter on my blog later.

So what happens now?

You said that the Judge gave you 2 choices: accept settlement (what is the settlement if they do not want to apologize and give you money?) or be found guilty of the charges?

sorry if I've misunderstood. I'm just curious what your options are now or if it has finally come to a conclusion.

Anyways, good luck with it all.

In short, the judge said the settlement would be a document from the nursing college saying that I did not commit sexual ha
