Oh My God! The Founding Father of Republican China (國父 孫中山先生)was a U.S. citizen! This is really interesting and intriguing news.
According to recent news reports, The American Institute in Taiwan will, for the first time, on 4th July, make public an official document to prove that Sun Yat-sen was a U.S. citizen.
This official document was issued in 1904, at a time when Sun Yat-sen was actively campaigning to call on all overseas Chinese to overthrow the Qing Dynasty. However, whenever he tried to enter into the U.S. for this campaign via San Francisco, he was continuously being blocked and harassed by the Customs & Immigration officials. To facilitate his multiple entries into the country, the U.S. government released documents to prove that Sun Yat-sen was born in Hawaii, and therefore he was a U.S. citizen; and that he was only temporarily residing in China. Actually from history, we all know that Sun was born in Zhongshan county of Guangdong Province, China. This fact is NOT disputable. However, he did spend some years in Honolulu when he was a teen and studied in Iolani School and Oahu College (now known as Punahou High School.) BTW, Obama also spent a few years as a student at Punahou.
After a long history of animosity and distrust towards the Americans, today, the Father of Republican China is revealed to be a U.S. citizen, and just as China is celebrating the centennial of the Red Revolution. This new revelation is best considered a beautiful joke in history, but it is quite certain that the angry youths of this huge nation are not likely to be amused by this “announcement”.
