Notes: | Official Chiang portraits from the martial-law era in Taiwan were used by protestors in 2009 who were opposed to the policy of closer rapprochement between the newly elected KMT government of Ma Ying-jeou in Taipei, and Beijing. In this placard, Chiang is depicted as crying in response to Ma's supposed 'surrender' to the Communists. |
