We are here to add what we can to life, not to get what we can from life.
William Osler
Regarding Ko Wen-je’s
Ph.D. Thesis
In 2002
Ko received his Ph.D. degree
His Ph.D. thesis
was actually
focused on the functions of ECMO
But we had noticed
his Ph.D. thesis
was indeed focus on
how to speed up the death of the potential donor
for the organ donor patients
I believed this issue was discussed clearly
in the press conference held by Dr. Su previously
What we want to emphasis was
If you called yourself a doctor
Are you here to save life
Or execute your patients?
A patient in the glimpse of dying
and you took the last breath away
didn’t let the patient die peacefully
instead you used medical intervention to control
his death which was very inhumane
On November 24
Taiwan held the local mayoral elections
and which was the first general election
after DPP took major victory in 2016.
The Taipei Mayor election was the focus of the election
despite the strong attack
from DPP and KMT mayor candidates
Ko won the election with only 3000 votes.
Nonetheless, two months before the election
a book called The Slaughter
was translated into Chinese version
and Ko’s involvement
was discussed in Chapter 9.
Before elected as the Taipei mayor
Ko Wen-je was a surgeon at National Taiwan University Hospital
and also introduced the ECMO technology to Taiwan.
In 2014,
International investigative writer, Ethan Gutmann published his book
The Slaughter after extensive investigation
of Falun Gong practitioners been killed to supply China's organ transplant industry.
In fact, Ko acknowledged in 2008
he was considering organ transplant surgery in China
In fact,
Ko acknowledged in 2008
but later admitted his involvement in taking his patients
to China for human organ transplant.
October 2018, Mr. Gutmann came to Taiwan
and held the international press conference
on the organ harvesting issue in China.
He was a conduit potential conduit
to Taiwanese patients for
organ tourists who will pay more for organs that a Chinese person will.
He was teaching ECMO techniques
this is the worse because this created whether he meant or not
this created perverse incentives to kill Falun Gong, Uyghurs, Tibetans and housed Christians.
Gutmann was questioned that day
What’s your perspective on the organ harvest issue
Ko Wen-je claimed the issues were incorrect
Ko denied his involvement in organ harvesting in China
So do you think Ko is a liar
Gutmann replied yes
That was Gutmann’s true and sincere reply
Only if Ko’s cyber army didn’t attack Gutmann
harass Gutmann
blackmailed Gutmann
I doubt Gutmann would not expose Ko was a liar
As the international communities starting to investigate
the organ harvesting in China
and shockingly the incident
is also taking place in Taiwan
Since 2014 the investigation was conducted
internal materials released from within NTU
When I started to write about organ donations
from different angle
organ donations from different perceptions
Around September
I received the materials
It was a piece of paper
operation manual for non-heart-beating donation
One day
I came across
the ECMO operation manual
I realized
the information on both manuals were identical
I though the materials I received
was marked internal or classified
but later realized they openly
discussed the non-heart-beating donations
in the ECMO operation manual
They used the operation manual like the text book
so we can confidently assumed
the organs were forcedly removed
because these donors will not passed brain dead evaluation
They didn’t have any reasonable explanation
to recommend organ donations to the family
Hence, I’m strongly suspecting that the family members
had no consensus that the
ECMO was used on their love ones to remove organs
I strongly believed they didn’t know
In the interview with NTU Cardiovascular Surgeon Dr. Yih-Shiang Chen
We always recommended emergency rescue procedure
on the dying patients
then we would explain the organ donations
to the family
After organizing all the evidence and put all materials together
I brought it to the attention with Mr. Sen-Hong Yang
This is not right This is wrong
Everything leads to shocking conclusion No need to visit China
because Taiwan and China are both removing organs from donors of conscious
Back in 2000
Ko Wen-je was the Director of the Surgical Intensive Care Unit at the National Taiwan University Hospital
jointly with Dr. Yih-Shrng Chen, cardiovascular surgeon at the National Taiwan University
Pi-ru Tsai, in charge of the ECMO
and Dr. Po-huang Lee, Department of Surgery Director at the National Taiwan University Hospital
together published a thesis
in the English journal called Clinical Transplantation
The outline of the first page mentioned to maintain
the proper functions of the organs
not only ECMO was connected
to the donors with no heartbeat
to extend the time
but also
Phentolamine was injected to the donors
to prevent significant damages
to the body organs due to heart failure
Because Medical Journal had cited
Phentolamine injection will prolong the Warm Ischemia time
Warm Ischemia time is
when we died our body organs
Blood vessels will contracts
Phentolamine should be injected before the patients dies
to keep the blood vessels flow openly
and prevent the blood vessels from contracting instantaneously
the shortage of blood period will be shorten
This is the main purpose of injecting Phentolamine
Later they realized they were fast on removing organs
do they still need to focus the warm Ischemia time
Of course not
hence in order for them to efficiently removed organs
and also allowing them to feel moral and ethical acceptable
what was the best injection medicine?
It’s Pavulon
Once injected the patients will not move a single hair
Dr. Sue referred a medicine injection
called Pavulon
and the Chinese name is Ma To Nung
It is an aminosteroid muscle relaxant used in euthanasia
and administered during most
lethal injections in the United States
According to NTUH NHBD ECMO Protocol
donors were injected Pavulon during non-heartbeat organ transplantation
in the NTU hospital
The use of Pavulon allows the patients
it allows your
it allows you properly and efficiently putting in the injecting tubes
why?
because the patient will not move once injected Pavulon
however injecting Phentolamine patients might still twists
when you are cutting the patients open
the patients will still
twists and moves
even in the brink of death
the patients sometimes struggle and fight for life
It actually happens
when the patients are dying
they would twists and moves
However if you injected Pavulon instead
once injected the patients will not move
and also faster death
because it repress breathing
Hence when he cuts the patients open
will he guilt gnawing at one's conscience
No
Will the donors experience pain
when Morphine
is injected?
Morphine was used to decrease the feeling of pain
But do you think its definitive effective on suppressing the pain?
No
We have to inject local anesthesia to suppress the pain
(So injecting 2 amp dose)
(It’s not sufficient enough to suppress the pain for the patients?)
It allows the patients to feel dizziness and somnolent
So it’s necessary to inject local anesthesia
Did he inject local anesthesia?
On his manual Morphine was not injected
So in proper medical procedure what injection should be used?
It’s Lidocaine
It’s Lidocaine
The problem is Lidocaine is too much trouble
they can start the surgery immediately once Morphine was injected
Besides, the patient will soon die after Pavulon was injected
However, Dr. Yih-Shrng Chen, member of the organ transplant team
Cardiovascular Surgeon at NTU Hospital
and co-authored of the thesis
with Ko Wenjie published in year 2000 lied publicly in a 2014 interview
He claimed in the non-heartbeat donations, the medicine was only injected
when the patients are pronounced dead
As a matter of fact it is considered dead
We will then perform surgery (Transplantation) when pronounced dead
There are procedures prior to the surgery
but required the consent from the family
then real death will actually start
the injection procedure
that is regarded as handling and process the corpse
When you review the Medical Journal
dated on 11/11/2014
The so called NTU ECMO
Non-heartbeat donations Protocol
The second paragraph of the Protocol was very debatable, disputed, peculiar
It’s called Potential Donors
Potential Donors
Who are the potential donors?
He stated
If this patient is believed to be brain dead
Is believed to be brain dead
Then it’s acceptable
for us to believe this patient
will be brain dead
In other word he is not brain dead yet
Let me ask you how do you justify brain dead
there’s no standard or criterion
Now when donating organs they can based on
Section 4 of Human Organ Transplant Act
there are two conditions
First is corpse organ donations
second is brain dead organ donations
there’s strict justification and process to consider brain dead
Presently in Taiwan
there are two main ways to donate organs
One is a brain-dead donation
and the other is a corpse donation
On December 26, 2017
the Department of Health and Welfare issued a reference guide for organ donations after cardiac arrest and after that
the non-heartbeat donation was officially allowed
Then, what is the difference
between brain dead, non-heartbeat and corpse?
From medical perspectives
the patient
who was judged brain dead
the heart and many body organs are still functioning
Because there have been many cases
the patient
who was pronounced dead came back to life
so the brain dead requires a legitimately strict judgment and evaluation procedures
It’s not for me to judge brain dead simply looking at the patient
No
there are guidelines to follow for brain dead evaluation
On the “Human Organ Transplant Act”
the first guideline clearly stated
The organs are donated primarily from the corpse
if the organs are not from the corpse organ donations
instead it was based
on brain dead pronouncement
So, there are guidelines to follow for brain dead evaluation
on the “Human Organ Transplant Act”
There are restrictions
There are restrictions
on location, personnel and timing
Four hours, two evaluation on braindead for every four hours
There are also method restrictions
It clearly instructed the guidelines
The first guideline is disconnect respirator for 10 minutes
Without heartbeat death
when the patient stops the heartbeat
observe for certain period
the judgment of no heartbeat death can be completed
and medical equipment cannot be connected to the patient during the process
These kind of patients will not passed the brain dead evaluation
patients are connected to all kinds of machines
from Cardiotonic to respirators
the patients will not passed the brain dead evaluation
Technically these kind of patients will died eventually
The regulations in Taiwan during that period
and also same as now
even though this is not law binding but it is executive Act
It’s based on the significance of Human Organ Transplant Act
The patients will donate organs
when dies naturally
On the other hand, the non-heartbeat donations is
purposely shorten the waiting period
since the patients connected to the life support medical equipment
patients may live another 3 days, 5 days
or even one month
What should the doctors do?
The organs will deteriorate as time goes by
hence the non-heartbeat organ donations is
we relocate the patients to the operation room
all of medical equipment
with the permission of the family
removed all medical equipment
then let the patients slowly died after all organs removed
after the patients is dead then record the electrocardiogram
confirm the death of the patients
then wait another two minutes
start the operation
The corpse definition
according to the Taiwan criminal law or medical law literature
is currently mainly judged by the use of "comprehensive judgment"
the so-called "three symptoms"
After the forensic to examine the body
confirm this is the corpse
very easy to define corpse
it is when the patient is officially pronounced dead
after the patients is dead
then we can start the inherit process
this is when the legal process starts
The death, according to the Taiwan is currently mainly judged by the use of "three symptoms"
the eyes will dilates, heart beat stops and brain stem reaction
these are couple of signs to show the actual death
this is how we define corpse
Also, during Ko Wen je’s tenure at the National Taiwan University Hospital
Ko claimed that the “no heartbeat donation” ECMO was used during the organ donation process
Was it a legal organ donation procedure
or was it the notebook that records harvesting patients’ organs while conscious?
At the end of 2017
Taiwan Department of Health and Welfare issued the "Reference Guide"
it was apparent that the non-heartbeat donation was not allowed
However, during Ko Wen Je’s tenure at the NTU Hospital
Ko had already performed many cases of no heartbeat donation
However, what’s the truth?
According to the investigation
Ko clearly recorded his procedure of no-heartbeat donations
in the ECMO manual which co-authored
by Pi-Ru Tsai
In addition
the patient was given Morphine and Pavulon
to suppress the pain and paralyze the heart
when they know that the prosecutor has arrived at the hospital
what happens next are even more chilling
turned off
turned off EKG (Electrocardiography)
after the EKG is turned off
start the ECMO
(Why does he needs to start the ECMO?)
ECMO started to preserve proper function of organs
keep the organs fresh
start pumping the blood to the vital organs
pumping keep the blood flowing
patients was also injected Heparin
to keep the blood from solidification
til the end
the blood flowed to the kidneys
because the blood is flowing
at this point of stage you will notice the upper body skin color of the patient is black and
lower body skin color is red
that’s right
In the 2014 United Daily News interview with NTU Cardiovascular Surgeon Dr. Yih-Shrng Chen
Dr. Chen admitted during
the surgery of no heart-beat donations
20 to 30 percent of patients
who was believed to be no heart-beat death their heart revived
and start pumping when the ECMO was connected to the donors
The incident was very shocking
to the doctors performing the surgery
Also, according to a doctor in the NTU Hospital
privately admitted the incident through the private message
and admitted that
because of this incident
that the NTU Hopsital
had added surgery SOP
of "turning off the ECG during the surgery
Hence, even if the heartbeat recovers
the doctors performing the surgery will never notice it
Once during the non-heartbeat organ donations
the heart started beating after the ECMO was connected to the patient
and pretend that he just doesn't see
then the protocol was revised
connect the ECMO after the Electrocardiogram is turned off
so for the future non-heartbeat donations surgery
he will try hard to not get involved in the surgery
why do you have to turn off the Electrocargiogram?
The use of Electrocardiogram was to
monitor and exam the legality of the non-heartbeat organ donations
there are possibilities that during the surgery
the patients’ heartbeat might start beating again
we have to stop the surgery if that happens right?
So that’s the reason why the EKG was turned off?
At this time
the patient’s upper body was already turning purple
and the lower part of the body displays rosy red
Before the prosecutor arrived at the hospital
they would purposely slid a balloon also known as the "Occlusion Balloon"
from the femoral artery
on the left side of the thigh to the sternum
Below the xiphoid, in an attempt is made to stop blood from flowing from the aorta to the heart
In 2016 there was an International Medical Journal
we had studied the paper
which was discussing the Ehtic issue of Occlusion Balloon
Ko’s team
there’s was a paper in 2005 by Ko’s NTU team
was accused
first of all
without consent from the family
the consent form is not just a piece of paper
for the family to sign whatever they wished
for organ donations
No
they are obligated to clearly describe the procedure
what was involved in the procedure
it is clearly illustrated in the medical journal
the paper stated
Ko’s team
they intended to preserve the organs
with certain procedure
Ko’s team didn’t want to revive the patient
hence he inserted a balloon into femoral artery
then pumps the air into the balloon
once the balloon inflates and expands
stops the blood flowing into heart and brain
this procedure will prevent the recovery of brain
and also resulted the heart to start pumping again
correct
but when you perform this surgery procedure
blood flow in lower abdominal cavity
because he injects these liquids
ECMO injected cooled liquids
very cold liquids
into the lower abdominal blood circulations
in other words
the upper body will Cyanosis
Cyanosis means
because of the red blood cells
so the patients will turn purple
when the medical staffs saw the patients
that they were trying to save
starting to turn purple and black from upper body
and the lower body are shown normal red color
the psychological compression cannot be beard
do you really have to harvest their organs
commit these despicable actions
These are the reasons why other people
are afraid to do these kind of surgical procedures
and no one is willing to do it too
The injection of Pavulon
allows the patient's muscles relax, paralyzed the heart
then plug the occlusion balloon into the body
so that the blood cannot flow from the aorta through the heart for extra assurance
This was performed to possible recovering
of the heart beat
and eliminate chance of surviving
In the end, the ECMO will be turned on
not to save the patients
but mainly to keep the organs fresh
Maybe you will ask
the price of the ECMO are so expensive
why bother to go through so much trouble
of using ECMO for organ harvesting
However, in 2005
Ko Wen-Je submitted his papers to the Chinese Journal of Cardiopulmonary
in his paper he mentioned the advantages of using ECMO preservation organs
even emphasized using ECMO
on organ harvesting surgery
you get more “bang for the buck"
As the matter of fact, we had reviewed all int’l
non-heartbeat organ donations thesis which we can find
Any case allows injections?
There weren’t any
So don’t heighten non-heartbeat donations also performed abroad
That’s right
The problem is all the cases of Ko's team ares not no-heartbeat organ donation
because there’s a major principle for non-heartbeat donation
that is NO TOUCH. Doctors shall not process and contribute death
(Even injections are not allowed?)
Definitely not allowed
How does Ko Wen-je comment
on the harsh allegations?
(Mayor Ko, my question for you is)
(during your tenure at NTU Hospital)
(Have you ever injected Paulon to the organ donor)
(during the state)
(of non-heartbeat conditions?)
Well…That is
Now you asking me…I don’t
Actually…
Protocol
Protocol
I was following the SOP
But I knew it was
it was removed
(So you did it right?)
I don’t remember
In the process, Ko Wen-Je was stammering when the question was asked
but isn’t organ transplantation is his expertise
also he would be familiar with the surgical procedure
but why he claimed he is not aware or unclear with the procedure?
Moreover, while we were questioning
staffs from Taipei City Hall immediately called next question
intentionally trying to prevent us from asking the further questions on if the injections of Pavulon was used
What does Ko trying to cover up?
Ko Wen-Je is not only involved
in the assisted death on the no-heartbeat patients
In fact, in 2000, he submitted a paper to a foreign journal
with four clinical report of case studies
Due to the willingness of the subjects and human trials
on Dec. 12, 2014 NTU professor Ching-Yi Liu
wrote letter to the Department of Health and Welfare
on providing Ko Wen Je’s application for human trials on this paper
but the Ministry of Health and Welfare sent a letter to inform
that it had never received the relevant application
In this case, Ko Wen-Je's paper and clinical reports
may be related to major flaws in medical ethics
and academic ethics
If Ko’s thesis
if It it’s consider illegal
His degree will be terminated and removed
(So, Dr. Ko will be disqualified?)
That's right.
Because he basically
his
he will lose his doctor qualification
Look
If I was to discuss in my legal thesis
and in my legal thesis
I murdered my subject
and during the process of killing
I interviewed
the person that I was killing
doing something...
Do you think my thesis is legal and acceptable?
Of course it’s not!
Or if I tortured a person
I mean I tortured a person
and used it on my psychology thesis
Do you think it’s acceptable?
Two months before the election
Taipei mayor candidate with no political back ground
and Political Science Professor Hsi-Kun Li
went to Ministry of Health and Welfare reported
Ko’s illegal involvement
of no heart-beat donations surgery and selling organs
during his tenure at NTU Hospital
and related issues that seriously violate medical ethics
My gut feeling is when
Ministry of Health and Welfare face similar case on organ donations
due to the sensitivity of privacy and politics
hence the first reaction was
delayed
must be delayed
because during the delaying process
the election might be over
the public attention quiets down
also cools down
I suspected them intentionally delaying the investigation process
It’s not
my complaints was not appropriate
it is very simple
if they have the determination to investigate
the investigative team can be established in one day
If I can provide all the evidence needed
then what’s the purpose of having Ministry of Health and Welfare
do you agree if I had all the evidences then
I can be the Ministry of Justice Investigation Bureau
According to His-Kun Li’s supplementary evidence document to Ministry of Health and Welfare
the current director of the Surgical Intensive Care Unit at NTU Hospital
and Organ Donation Promote Group leader Nai-Kuan Chou
he admitted at a party
that the Ministry of Health and Welfare had previously fined the NTU Hospital
on failing of providing proper legal authorization
on 26 cases of non-heartbeat donations
On November 28th the well-known radio host Jung-Chi Hsu wrote on his Facebook
that he met with the officials from the Department of Health and Welfare and the Ministry
admitted on the spot that they had already investigated this incident in 2014
and made an investigation report
It was confirmed that the NTU Hospital was fined and penalized for lack
of supervision and management
during the no heart-beat organ donations surgery
Not waiting for public servants
We hope to get an official response
hoping to get an official response
but never received a call back
so two days later
we decided to personally visit to the Department of Health and Welfare for verification
Hello I am the Journalist from FTV
I’m here to interview the PR representative
I called your office earlier
regarding information on
was NTU Hospital ever punished?
26 cases of non-heartbeat organ donations
Since no one replied
so here I am today
Two days passed!
it is obvious the Ministry of Health and Welfare did not prepare for our questions
I know
That happened long time ago
That case
is actually handled by Department of Medical Affairs
So…
(Talking to Coworkers) Your phone call…
Because that is for
our Department of Medical Affairs Director Chung-Liang Shih
(Is it his scope of responsibility?)
Yes He will be better assist you
Regarding meeting Director
You came without making appointment
(Let’s see if he has time)
(Or maybe he can give us some time)
OK! No problem
Great! Thanks for your help
While waiting for the meeting with Director Shih
Director Wang informed us
he is having difficulty arranging the meeting
and will keep us posted for any updates
However, as he left the office no updates on the meeting was given
and after waiting for another hour
we bumped into Director Wang
as he was washing dishes
Excuse me sir
Did you locate Director Shih?
I was just…
(Asking Coworkers) What happened?
According to the his secretary
Director Shih is in the meeting
But the secretary had requested information
First he is still in the meeting
Second
everything is still under invetigation
(So there’s no punishment?)
It’s not we didn’t imposed any punishment
the case is still under investigation
If there’ s update or conclusion
(You will notify us?)
Yes
(Under investigation and no punishment so…)
No No No Still under investigation
You have to wait til finalize the investigation
to decide if its necessary
(to impose punishment)
(So there’s no punishment right?)
Don’t have definitive answer right now
It not we don’t impose punishment
Its that we have not finish our investigation
You have to have all necessary information
to conclude
(so you can impose punishment right?)
To make the next move
The public relations director is avoiding
In fact
the Ministry of Health and Welfare has already conducted an investigation
with the Taipei City Health Bureau in 2014
and went to the National Taiwan University Hospital to investigate
and produce an investigation report in January of the following year
After we obtained this report exclusively
we found that it clearly stated that no heartbeat donation is fundamentally unfounded
and there are many disputes that need to be further clarified
The National Taiwan University Hospital also admitted
that because of legal issues
and even fear of other disputes
the ethics committee had been convened in 2008
and decided to stop donating without heartbeats
The investigation was conducted
but were there any fine?
We decide to dig deep and called Ms. Yueh-ping Liu
Senior Technical Specialist, Ministry of Health and Welfare
for final confirmation!
Hello Technical Specialist Department
(Hello)
(This is FTV Tribune Center)
(I’m the reporter and my name is Fausto)
(May I ask)
(is Ms. Yueh-ping Liu Senior Technical Specialist available?)
This is she
(We are working on the special report)
(on Mayor Ko)
(regarding the non-heartbeat organ donations)
(My questions for you are)
(Has NTV Hospital ever punished?)
NTU Hospital punished for what?
(punished for non-heartbeat organ donations)
(Ever punished in the past?)
No
No punishment by your Ministry?
No
Ever punish by Taipei City Health Bureau?
No
What? Only investigation and no penalty was issue
seeing public opinion and concerns cooling down
from 2014 to now
Ministry of Health and Welfare has never publicly explained the results of the investigation
but recently
we were able to obtain exclusive
and complete information through special channels
In addition
the case was filed to the Taipei High Administrative Court by His-Kun Li
and others including NTU Professor Chin-Yi Liu
was asked to the Taipei High Administrative Court three years ago
requesting the Department of Health and Welfare to take
26 cases of illegal disclosure of no-heartbeat donations from the NTU Hospital
The well-known radio host, Rong-Chi Hsu reported
to Ko Wen-Je’s involving in murder and destruction of the body to the Taipei District Prosecutor's Office
the pro-independence group also submitted to Ministry of Education
on Ko Wen-Je’s violation of medical ethics and academic ethics
and Control Yuan Member Peter Wushou Chang also launched an investigation
The five major cases were fully launched
and it is up to the government to dare to do it
Due to the large number of people involved in this case
in addition to the responsibility of the National Taiwan University Hospital
and the executing physician who illegally caused the patient to be processed and died
the supervisory authority of the Ministry of Health
and the Taipei Department of Health may not be able to escape
and may even involve higher levels
On the outside the Xinyi Golf Course in the Dashu District of Kaohsiung
a large billboard is standed there
and the title writes
"Support universal love and organ donations, starts from you and me"
The billboard displays the current
Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-Je who was involved in the surgery of non-heartbeat patients
Dr. Po-Chang Lee, the co-author of non-heartbeat donation paper
younger brother of the Chief Physician at the Department of Surgery of the NTU Hospital
and also the director of the National Health Insurance Administration
and the chairman of the Organ Donation and Transplantation Center
In fact, standing in the middle of the billboard
is William Lai who was previously working with Dr. Po-Chang Lee at the National Cheng Kung University Hospital
and now currently served as the Premier of Taiwan
This is a harsh allegation
We still advocate that
we should have objective evidence
(So you believed Ko Wen-je?)
Yes
I believe organ transplantation
is a very serious topic
Any sort of accusation
should have solid evidence
we should follow the evidence
for our future action
Regarding the past organ transplants cases
and the registered information
we requested hospitals to file them accordingly
(Ko Wen-je was build his own database...)
This has no direct link between Ko Wen-je
and this case
In regards to database integrity
is an issue that we all care about for a long time
Why did the Taiwanese House Party
failed to investigate before and after the mayoral election
when the capital city mayor received overwhelming accusations ace accusations from all parties?
What was the reason
for Taiwan’s Premier
to publicly endorsed Ko Wen-je?
Now that the evidence is expose and available in the media
does our government has the determination to prosecute Ko?
According to Ko Wen-je’s 2005 column at the “Clinical Transplantation”, 31 cases of NTU’s surgery of non-heartbeat donation were performed. These donors may all experienced excruciating pain when their organs were harvested while conscious.
Our technology from surgical intensive care unit is often ahead of the law. If all the things I did were legally pursued, I will spend the rest of my life in prison. -Ko Wen-je ( The White Power) p. 245
