Dr. Hwung-Hweng Hwung
President
National Cheng Kung University
Tainan, Taiwan

Dear President Hwung,

If you read the attached printscreen of a document from the Edit History page of NCKU's Wikipedia entry, you will see why a formal resolution of my dismissal case is imperative.

Whether the Wikipedia editor, APACHE776, is associated with National Cheng Kung University remains to be seen. If NCKU is sincere about its apology it should investigate this issue.

In the meantime, it's irrelevant. What matters is that a revisionist history of my 1999 dismissal, and the human rights violations that continued in the years following, was possible because National Cheng Kung University has delayed an apology for nearly thirteen years and the illegal actions have not been reasonably published or exposed.

The Wikipedia Edit shows how imperative a formal apology is, as well as punitive and compensatory actions integrally related to an apology, whether by moral or legal standards; not only in themselves, but as an earnest, or token, of real administrative change in the university to prevent a repeat occurrence of what happened.

Sincerely,

Richard de Canio
formerly, FLLD
NCKU
