“I do not think [the design] looks good,” he told reporters after viewing an exhibition at the National Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall commemorating the 50th anniversary of the implementation of the nine-year compulsory education program.
The winning design, which looks like a rubber chicken with a baby-faced blue squiggle on its chest and the KMT’s emblem on its rump, was created by 18-year-old Wu Ching-ping (吳婧萍) for a contest organized by the KMT Youth Department.
A white seal wearing the KMT emblem placed second, while a white lion with the KMT emblem as its head was third. [FULL STORY]
