Miramar - Lin Shu-ling (General)
Recap: Miramar resort is an illegally built monstrosity on Shan Yuan beach. It was built through corrupt collusion between Miramar & the Taitung Council on Amis tribal land.
Protesters successfully exposed this illegality (through the courts) resulting in the opening of the resort being stopped. They didn't succeed in having it demolished.
The Taitung Council compensated the company (for their illegal actions), then re-purposed the resort as a 'convention centre'.
One of the lead protest groups opposing Miramar is Fan Fan Fan (Stop Stop Stop). The structure of the group is such that they don't have an official leader, but the person who most inspired the movement is Lin Shu-ling. Shu-ling's ancestral home is on Shan Yuan Beach. Her grandmother still lives there.
Shu-ling was the lead plaintiff in Taiwan's first ever citizen legal action against Miramar/Taitung Council. She has long called for the resort to be torn down.
As retribution for her involvement, the Taitung Government has now moved to demolish her house!
The demolition is scheduled to begin at 8am, tomorrow (Oct 21).
There is a vigil organized to defend Shu-ling's home which starts from today (Oct 20) at 5pm.
This is beyond-the-pale persecution by a corrupt organization of one of the most honourable people i've ever met. She is being persecuted because she is honourable, because she had the temerity to expose the Taitung Government's appalling behaviour. They hate her guts. They are using their power to crush her.
Only hope to stop her house being bulldozed is a strong show of support.
Fan Fan Fan has mobilized & will be there for the vigil. They won't go down without a fight.
