Two days before he will officially relinquish his post, President Ma Ying-Jeou this morning released a self-parody video on Facebook in which he light-heartedly addressed the criticisms of him and his administration put forward by netizens. Before leaving office, President Ma used wit and humor to respond to his critics. In this clip, Ma appeared with deer antlers, a self-deprecating reference to his laughable assertion that the Chinese word for “deer antlers” refers instead to the hairs inside of a deer’s ears.He mockingly apologized for his error by using an elementary school notebook to write out the correct definition of the word three times. In another scene, Ma addressed a netizen’s question about how he maintains his death grip.Yao Wen-chihDPP Legislator In the past, his handling of...

Translation of President Ma’s public statement on January 16, 2016, concerning Tzuyu: I have some opinions regarding Chou Tzuyu's incident. A 16-year-old girl from Taiwan who is working hard in the Korean entertainment industry, because she was holding a Taiwanese flag and did not do anything wrong, was forced to apologize. I believe that this is not right. It’s something we cannot accept. I am here to tell Miss Chou that she did not have to apologize, we support her. Translated by Taipeimain. http://www.taipeimain.com/ The second half of President Ma's statement does not concern Tzuyu and will be shown in a separate video. We do not want to link Tzuyu to any political parties or viewpoints.

The President of Taiwan, Ma Ying-jeou, rarely speaks to the international media. But in an exclusive interview he talks to Al Jazeera's Steve Chao about where the island is going, protests against the controversial trade agreement with China, and how he thinks the rest of the world should respond to China's rise. Editor's note: An earlier version of this interview incorrectly translated President Ma Ying-jeou as saying Taiwan is the only place in China practicing democracy. In fact, he said "Taiwan is the only place in ethnic Chinese societies where we are able to practice democracy". This version of the interview contains the correct translation.

First airing on Saturday, February 3, 2007, this TalkAsia interview with Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) chairman Ma Ying-jeou had host Anjali Rao fluffing Ma, pushing his "Mr. Clean" propaganda, and letting him show himself generally talking like a fool with things like (barely a parody-phrase) "I couldn't possibly be guilty of anything because I donated blood a whole bunch of times, and I also donated to charity a lot of that money that rightfully belongs to the taxpayers ot Taiwan." He did say one thing correctly, although it was probably an accident: "No doubt Taiwan is a democratic country." Chairman Mao-without-the-o spoke in English/Newspeak throughout, and you can know what he's really saying if you listen carefully and frequently visit the Taiwan Matters blog. The intro is h...

On the night of December 9, 2008, Taiwan's Formosa Television (FTV/民視) interviewed Taiwan's president, Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九). Grimace as he struggles to greet the audience using Taiwanese. Squirm in your seat as he complains about the interviewer judging him based upon what happened after he took office instead of talking about the good stuff that happened in the last few months of his predecessor Chen Shui-bian's (陳水扁) term. Witness Mr. Ma smile as he talks about quarter after quarter of negative economic growth. Tags: Taiwan 台灣 Ma Ying-jeou 馬英九 interview 訪問 Formosa Television FTV 民視 Taiwan Matters 台灣時事

Former President Ma Ying-jeou and KMT Chairwoman Hung Hsiu-chu reportedly came to loggerheads over their party''s position on cross-strait relations, at a dinner meeting of senior party officials last night. There seems to be considerable space between Hung''s interpretation of the 1992 consensus and that of key KMT members, only a week before she''s scheduled to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing. Ma and Hung walked out of last night’s meeting with smiles on their faces. But according to reports, the two clashed over the rhetorical stance their party should adopt on cross-strait relations at Hung’s upcoming meeting with Xi Jinping. Ma allegedly insisted that the phrase “one China, different interpretations” should accompany any mention of the 1992 consensus, but Hung shot back, ...
