DESCRIPTION:On October 10, President Lai Ching-te will follow in his predecessors’ footsteps and deliver a major “Double Ten Day” speech. The date commemorates the 1911 Xinhai Revolution, a series of events that led to the end of imperial\nrule in China and the founding of the Republic of China (ROC), Taiwan’s official name still today.\nFive months into his term as ROC President, how will Lai describe his accomplishments thus far in a complicated domestic landscape where his Democratic Progressive Party has only a minority of seats in the legislature? How will he characterize his stance on cross-strait relations and how will Beijing react? And how will he address Taiwan’s relationship with foreign countries and its role in the world given the tightening of its international space? Our panel of three professors who are based inside and outside Taiwan will discuss the main takeaways from Double Ten Day and the challenges that lie ahead.
