Taiwan voters elect Lee Teng-hui president.(Originated from Knight-Ridder Newspapers)
|
TAIPEI, Taiwan _ The people of Taiwan elected Lee Teng-hui president in a landslide victory Saturday, sending a defiant message to mainland China that they won't be pushed around by military threats or intimidation.
Lee won 54 percent of the vote in a four-way race, becoming the first president of Taiwan to be directly chosen by the people.
His election was a sharp rebuke to China, which launched two weeks of menacing military maneuvers near Taiwan's shores in an effort to weaken support for Lee and warn the Taiwanese of the dangers of pursuing independence.
