CHIANG CHING-KUO, LEADER OF TAIWAN, DIES AT 77; SUCCESSOR SWORN IN
|
TAIPEI - President Chiang Ching-kuo, the son of nationalist
Chinese leader Chiang Kai-shek, died of a heart attack yesterday.
He was 77.
Chiang's death ended the six-decade dynasty that led the
Nationalist Party to victory and defeat in China and prosperity in
Taiwan, an island nation of 19.5 million people off China's coast.
Vice President Lee Teng-hui was sworn in to succeed Chiang.
Lee, a 64-year-old Christian and the first native Taiwanese
to become president, is expected to continue easing the
nationalists' authoritarian grip on the island they have governed
since 1949.
