Synopsis
On 2 May 1990, President LEE Teng-hui decided to nominate previous Military Chief of Staff HAU Pei-tsun for the position of premier. Many thought the decision was a terrible step back. In protest of the military involvement, some students camped out at the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall on the night of the announcement and others spray-painted slogans at various media headquarters.
