It would be nice to have a written guide to supplement the audio tour, as there is a lot of information in the displays that are inaccessible if you cannot read Chinese. Some of the exhibits are very powerful [...] [...] Today was my first time in the museum, as David noted, the museum lacks English signs, however, does have an audio guide in Mandarin, Taiwanese, Hakka, English, and Japanese.

After killing almost all the public leaders, the government claimed that there are no experts or capable Taiwanese people to hold the the governmental position. SO THEY ARE FORCED TO HIRE THE MAINLANDERS and starts another unfair or discriminating era till now. And makes the public of both parties except those government officers suffer the tragedy for no reason. My relative was caught during the WHITE FEAR ERA as a high school student in 成功高中 for no reason because the army judge ask one of his classmate that if he can confess another two classmates, then they will release him otherwise he would be abused again in the secret prison again. After the inhuman abuse I believe he is also innocent. He confessed that my relative is partner and without seeing the sentence and doing nothing, my relative was sent to Green Island for ten and half year. Another friend of my father was also put in jail for no reason when he is in junior high school. There are so many stories, and I think people no matter 本省或外省, should realize the truth and this history so at that time people will be able to see things from other party's viewpoint and then we will be able to understand, to forgive, and hold each others hands. I saw a documentary program in 三立 channel, it's nice and maybe you can see the replay. the stupid and corrupt government starts the first massacre and then arrested and killed the leaders of Taiwan by unbelievable cruel way on purpose.
