When Will Hai-Wang See Daybreak? Silent March Around the Presidential Office in Support of Chiu Ho-Shun
Last edited: 2026-08-29
Do you remember the special exhibition "Hai-Wang's Daybreak ✸ Chiu Ho-Shun's Forgotten 32 Years," held by several support groups in November? Hai-Wang is Chiu Ho-Shun's childhood nickname, and "daybreak" represents our shared hope. Many visitors joined us in learning more about his experience, and many also asked: How is A-Shun doing now?
On Human Rights Day, December 10, freedom-and daybreak-still seem painfully distant for Chiu Ho-Shun. We will therefore hold a silent march around the Presidential Office, using handcuffs, shackles, and blindfolds to symbolize what Chiu has endured through 32 years of imprisonment. We invite everyone to join us in again calling on the President to respond to our demand: pardon Chiu Ho-Shun. We hope Hai-Wang can soon remove the handcuffs, shackles, and blindfold that have confined him and finally see daybreak.
