Student protests in Taiwan

Following the example of Hong Kong, protests are now spreading to Taiwan. The protests involve mainland China visitors and students who have defaced "Lennon" walls where sympathy for Hong Kongs' protests have been expressed. Bi-yu Chang of the Centre of Taiwan Studies at SOAS, University of London commented, "These Chinese students seemed to form a different idea about what democracy is, how it operates and the rights and responsibilities it entails."
