The harassment of a peaceful and benevolent group by Taiwanese authorities proves that human rights problems also exist in countries reputed for their democratic development.
Tai Ji Men was persecuted for political reasons and harassed with unjust tax bills for more than 25 years. It all derived from the “five poisons of human heart.”
Taiwan’s highest authorities praised Tai Ji Men’s activities and teachings. This did not save them from persecution through false accusation and tax harassment.
