Colour it Green

The Zootechnology Department of the National Taiwan University announced the other day that it has raised successfully a few pigs with green eyes, snoot and hooves and they also emit light from those parts like fireflies in the dark. It is claimed also that they will be valuable in medical resarches. There were reports of fishes having the kind of light emitting properties before by others. Another news that is being quite a hot item in media in Taiwan concerns a pair of black/white fured animals that China wants to give to Taiwan. The problem is that the animals are of endangered spicy and protectyed by international regulations and can not be exported to other countries without proper procedures. If Taiwan was to accept them without the internationally agreed procedures, that seemed to be the intention behind China’s move, then Taiwan will be coloured RED, as it will be seen as an intra-national moving of the animals and not an international deed. This move for the gift of pandas was a play written by the chaire-persons of the Pan-Blue parties(the KMT, PFT, et al.) when they visited China one after others last year. The Pan-Blues are those of the former occupiers of Taiwan after the WW II from China and held power over Taiwan even after they lost grip of China in 1972. In the year 2000, the KMT(the Chinese Nationalist Party) lost in a presidential election and again in 2004. But it is using its great material resources accumulated by hooks and croocks over a half centry in the past to attempt at regaining power. Their aim is unification with China.
