First Edition
Hard Back. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition Stated. 125 Pages. May 1984 Slipcase Edition. No noted defects to book or slipcase. Dust jacket has very minimal wear to edges. On March 21, 1984, President Chiang Ching-kuo was re-elected President of the Republic of China by the seventh convocation of the National Assembly. An over- whelming majority of the assemblymen voted in favor of him. This is an indication of the broad-based support President Chiang has been receiving from his countrymen . The assemblymen's testimonial is a direct result of Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo's superb achievements during his first term of office as the 6th President of the Republic of China from 1978 to 1984. His re-election implies that the people of this country place their trust in his leadership in anticipation of even greater accomplishments during the six years of his second presidency. Historians of the future studying the period of the Republic of China on Taiwan will certainly discover -- no matter what their perspectives -- that the first term of Mr. Chang Ching-kuo's presidency was beset by a multiplicity of almost insurmountable adversities of a national and international nature. However, the President led his country courageously through the most trying days and fought his way to triumph over all adverse forces. Simultaneously, he was also able to inaugurate an era of rapid modernization, laying the foundation for continued national growth, establishing responsive policies and executing competent programs. As he achieved his goals one after another, the President guided his country step by step along the path of stability and prosperity. Indeed, the enthusiastic support, cooperation and collaboration of the people in general are essential to his success, but there is no denying that his leadership spear-headed all endeavors. It is he who set the correct goals, mapped out the right course, provided the firm guidance and inspired the self-confidence and self-respect so necessary in facing up to various trials and dangers. His fortitude became the fortitude of the country and his steadfastness its steadfastness. For six frustrating but also frustrating years, President Chiang Ching-kuo led his countrymen in a hard battle and won it. Large heavy book that may incur additional charges for Priority Shipping to some locations.

This annual includes a chronology of events for the year, and a biographical who's who in Taiwan. Expanded and revised, this edition includes chapters on land and people, government, the economy, society and culture. Taiwan, officially the Republic of China (ROC), is a country in East Asia. Neighboring countries include the People's Republic of China (PRC) to the northwest, Japan to the northeast, and the Philippines to the south. The main island of Taiwan has an area of 13,826 sq. mi., with mountain ranges dominating the eastern two-thirds and plains in the western third, where its highly urbanized population is concentrated. Taipei is the capital as well as the largest metropolitan area of Taiwan. Other major cities include New Taipei, Kaohsiung, Taichung, Tainan and Taoyuan. With 23.57 million inhabitants, Taiwan is among the most densely populated countries. Austronesian-speaking ancestors of Taiwanese indigenous peoples settled the island around 6,000 years ago. In the 17th century, partial Dutch colonization opened the island to mass Han Chinese immigration. After the brief rule of part of southwestern Taiwan by the Kingdom of Tungning, the island was annexed in 1683 by the Qing dynasty of China, and ceded to the Empire of Japan in 1895. The Republic of China, which had overthrown and succeeded the Qing in 1911, took control of Taiwan on behalf of the World War II Allies following the surrender of Japan in 1945. The resumption of the Chinese Civil War resulted in the ROC's loss of mainland China to the Chinese Communist Party and retreat to Taiwan in 1949. Although the ROC government continued to claim to be the legitimate representative of China, since 1950 its effective jurisdiction has been limited to Taiwan and numerous smaller islands. In the early 1960s, Taiwan entered a period of rapid economic growth and industrialization called the "Taiwan Miracle". In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the ROC transitioned from a one-party military dictatorship to a multi-party democracy with a semi-presidential system. Taiwan's export-oriented industrial economy is the 21st-largest in the world by nominal GDP, and 20th-largest by PPP measures, with major contributions from steel, machinery, electronics and chemicals manufacturing. Taiwan is a developed country, ranking 15th in GDP per capita. It is ranked highly in terms of political and civil liberties, education, health care and human development. The political status of Taiwan is contentious. The ROC is no longer a member of the UN, having been replaced by the PRC in 1971. Taiwan is claimed by the PRC, which refuses diplomatic relations with countries that recognize the ROC. Taiwan maintains official diplomatic relations with 14 out of 193 UN member states and the Holy See. Many countries maintain unofficial diplomatic ties with Taiwan through representative offices and institutions that function as de facto embassies and consulates. International organizations in which the PRC participates either refuse to grant membership to Taiwan or allow it to participate only on a non-state basis. Taiwan is a member of the World Trade Organization, Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation and Asian Development Bank under various names. Domestically, the major po.
