Floor Speech
Issues: Foreign Affairs
* Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, on this 100th anniversary of the founding of the Republic of China (Taiwan), I wish to extend my best wishes to our Taiwanese friends.
* Taiwan's continued success and growth into one of the world's most vibrant democracies despite tremendous adversity is a testament to the skill of its leadership and the resolve of its people. Due credit must be given to President Ma Ying-Jeou for his tenacity in advancing the cause of peace in the Asia Pacific region.
* It is my greatest hope that Taiwan and its neighbors, in particular the People's Republic of China, will continue to deepen cultural and economic ties to promote lasting peace in the region and in the world.
