Taiwan鈥檚 Wild Lily student movement in 1990 was the biggest student protest the country had seen and was a key turning point in the country鈥檚 path to democracy. For six days thousands of students camped out in the central square in front of the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall in the capital, Taipei. Martial law in Taiwan had ended just a few years earlier but the country was still governed by the KMT party, which had been in power since the 1940s. The students were angry at a presidential election with only one candidate, the incumbent president, and called for wide-ranging democratic reforms. Caroline Bayley has been talking to Chiu Hua-Mei, who took part in the Wild Lily movement.
