The curse of provincial prejudice still hangs over us to this day. If we take a good look at the nature of "228" we see it was really a spontaneous incident that turned into a major disaster due to Taiwan Governor-General Chen Yi's mishandling of the affair. But afterwards the KMT authorities insisted on blaming communist agitation.
探究其本質，「228」其實是一樁偶發性的群眾事件，因當時領台的行政長官陳儀處理失當而釀成大禍，但事發後，國民黨當局卻一直將責任歸咎於中共的煽動。
