 |
|
| Quote: |
Dear President Chen Shuibian
We the undersigned come together before you to request the immediate repeal of the deportation order issued against Scott Dylan Ezell longtime resident of Taidong, Taiwan .
We the undersigned also request that that Scott Dylan Ezell be allowed to remain in Taiwan and be granted Permanent Alien Residency Certification Status.
On April 12, after performaing at a press confrence organized through the Taidong County Culture Bureau, Scott D. Ezell was informed by officer Peter Chen of the Taidong Foreign Affairs Police that he was under investigation for breach of labor laws in regard to his performance and advocacy of aboriginal music.
Scott Ezell was later misled into signing a legal affidavit admitting his participation in these activities in direct contravention of his human rights.
Due process is a social and political necessity in a functioning democracy, and must be extended to all residents of Taiwan, be they Taiwanese, aboriginal, South-East Asian, Western, or of any other nationality or background.
Scott Ezell's advocacy and activities to promote and ensure the most basic human rights of Taiwan's aboriginal people has been a remarkable contribution to this society.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
Eric Wolfgang Lier

Hey, Taipei folks,
Isn't there an American named Richard Hartzell (or similar name?) who has a legal background and serves as an advocate for foreigner's rights?
I may have his name spelled wrong, but surely someone knows who I am talking about. He was there last year, anyway.
Best wishes.

Yes but if Mr. Ezell would have did his research here on Dave's he may not have had this problem.
In fact SSETT issued the warning for Taitung last year.
Work Advisory, Warning for Taidong (Taitung)
Work Advisory, Warning for Taidong (Taitung)
SSETT Work Advisory for Taidong (Taitung), Taiwan!
The following work, living and travel advisory is in effect for Taidong (Taitung)city and county.
There have been several confirmed reports of basic human rights violations and illegal search and seizures of Foreign residents and their property by the Foreign Affairs Police in Taidong (Taitung), South Eastern Taiwan. There have also been several reports of persecution and wrongful imprisonment of Foreign Nationals in Taidong (Taitung).
We strongly advise all foreign persons to avoid this area as basic civil liberties have been suspended for non-Taiwanese nationals in the area prescribed.

| I went to Taitung whilst travelling around Taiwan and the teachers I met seemed happy enough. I've also viewed the travel warning. If I didn't go to the places people told me not too, I'd never get out of bed. |
