LIKE FATHER, UNLIKE SON FOR HSING-CHIH AND DAD WANG TO.
(From Central News Agency (Taiwan))
Kaohsiung, Dec. 1 (CNA) Father and son meet every week, dining amicably and talking pleasantly, except that they never touch on "sensitive" topics such as politics and the workers' movement.
Wang Hsing-chih, a workers' movement leader and son of Wang To, the legislative party whip of the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), was accused by the Executive Yuan last week of damaging public property after he led several protest demonstrations in front of government agencies.
Hsing-chih, who said both he and his father are familiar with the notion of "doing time, " seems not to mind going to jail if he is convicted of offenses related to the demonstrations. He does, however, mind being called "the son of Wang To, " or "a member of the 'fifth column.'"
Hsing-chih called his father the other day to see how he was doing; after all, Wang To holds an important position in the government and an errant son could reflect poorly on the official.
The junior Wang said he knows about spending time in jail; not because of any time he himself has done, but because of the stories his father has told about being a political dissident who went to jail after the Formosa Incident more than 20 years ago.
He said he can still remember vividly that each Sunday, his mother, accompanied by him, his younger sister and their grandmother, traveled hours by bus to see Wang To at a detention center in Taipei County. The visits continued for about five years until he was 14.
