"During this final transitional year," comments an editorial in the China Times, "Lee Teng-hui must do three things: construct a new parliamentary system, complete the nomination of the Kuomintang's presidential candidate and assist in the election, and achieve a transition in political power that maintains a stable social structure."
「在這最後的交棒年，李登輝要做的有三件事：建立新的國會體制、完成國民黨的總統候選人提名、輔選並為政權轉換維持一個穩固的社會架構。」
