This is a follow-up to the 21 Sept 2018 petition post "Taiwan
promotes war?" at https://www.change.org/p/her-excellence-ms-tsai-please-help-us-correct-injustices-occurring-in-canada/u/23300652
Summary
Right now I need to strike an agreement with my former
boss. I understand how to do that
now. I need the court to grant me
mediation with him. I have options for
that:
1) at the next civil court date, my lawyer can insist to the
court that the court should force mediation;
2) at the next court date for the charge of slander against
me, I can supply the petition update explaining to prosecutors why they must
grant mediation;
3) at the next court date for the copyright infringement
case I have against my boss...;
4) at any other court date for any other charge I have
already filed against anyone at Kidsland
Sesame Street ...; and,
5) I can begin mediation directly.
The Tainan City Labor Affairs Bureau isn't going to hear the
case. However, I live in Kaohsiung , and Kidsland
Sesame Street owns a branch in Kaohsiung .
There are two levels of mediation centers. I can't use the main level because I was
never employed in Kaohsiung , but I CAN use the
second level to redress the fact of false statements that were given by
Kidsland in Tainan
at the first mediation on 4 May 2018.
I believe the time limit to mediate is 6 months, so I
technically have until November to begin this.
In all likelihood, I'll head down next week.
Since the point of mediation is specifically to avoid
unnecessary burden on the criminal or civil court systems, the mediation center
is more-or-less legally obliged to assist me.
If they refuse, well, they are government run and therefore become part
of the Nuremberg Principles argument that is developing for China to use against Taiwan .
This case is either horribly good for Taiwan , or just so horrible that no one should
even think about what The Chinese Communist Party can do once it conquers Taiwan
legally in International Court
with my support. I'm pretty sure Taiwan
is going to choose to work with me, instead of against me.

The above "Summary" was written at the bottom of
this longer history. If you're
interested in how I got to the conclusion above, read on. Warning though, it's long-winded. There are also surely typographs
(typos). I've not re-read it. Important is above. I intend to insert pictures. I'm not interested in doing that now, because
it's 11 pm and a movie's surely about to start.
This day, 21 Sept 2018, is officially ended for me.
A Long-winded History
Yesterday evening, speaking with an experienced Wales businessman in Tainan City , Taiwan
The NIA is not really at all the right branch of government
to handle a complaint of fraudulent Taiwanese business activity. However, there are "foreign affairs
police" and my involved with said "police" had thus far been so
far negative that the suggestion of there existing "good cops" at the
NIA seemed plausible.
Another fellow at the table vouched for the first, and said
that when he'd been in an accident, it was there that he received a lawyer to
assist with the wrongful driver charging him atop having been in the legal
wrong!
Talk about just wrong.
We chatted some more.
I'd actually gone with the plea to please help me communicate. Great suggestions were offered: make the
conversation "you" centered, but without using the word "you",
without any party losing face, and use generally first person speech to do
it. To accomplish that, give lead-in
suggestions that allow the other party to later take credit for any idea you
put into their head.
Atop the linguistic mastery required to convey the simpleton
idea of just plain ol' workin' together, knowledge of local customs was also
suggested. For example, "Tainan City
is the last place in Taiwan
where things change. It's still
acceptable to drink beer in public."
At which I asked, 'Oh, that's actually illegal here?' for
having enjoyed multiple beers as a routine on train trips all over the
country--but it makes sense. Godda keep
those "spirits" at bay.
That conversation become common sensical quite quickly. For example, local police are exceedingly
kind to foreigners, at the least the ones that typically come from U.N.
membership countries. Given the
continued drive for Taiwan
to be re-included as an equal U.N. country, that's not surprising. But, police do keep tabs.
Not, perhaps, literal phone bugging like Snowden's NSA
piping, but give them a solid reason, not just an excuse but a really necessary
reason, to intercede, and they must and will.
The laundry list will be used in court to assure conviction, of course.
So I checked, "use first person, be humble, don't
blame, respect others, and, above all, the law in practice isn't the written
law until it has to be." Goddit.
Lastly, "You better have a solid argument. And I'm not talking something you think is
legal or something that ought to be right, but a solid God damn argument if
you're going to stir the honey pot."
Check. Done.
I awoke the next day thinking I'd go and visit that fancy
house in Tainan
that's pictured in the petition update above, https://www.change.org/p/her-excellence-ms-tsai-please-help-us-correct-injustices-occurring-in-canada/u/23300652
I wrote my thoughts out.
The one page quickly became two, and by the time a poofed it, it was
five, and then 8. Wow.
Ok, so that's it. The
argument it's down. It's pretty clear,
and easy to follow. It doesn't blame,
but the suggestion part is missing. Hmm.
I developed it a bit more.
I added that email at the close, which recounts actual fraud that my
current employer, Kang Ning University
in Tainan , is
committing against a couple, or a few dozen, students.
Goddamit. So much for
begin humble. But, really, they're being
abused and my boss is showing me a pretty hard head. I sent suggestions to help the matter and am
still awaiting a reply! So, ok, well,
the petition update is still mostly fire anyway.
I've been reaching up, and drawing down insight,
inspiration, and awareness. It's been
working a bit backwards, to tell you the truth.
For example, if I mumble to myself, it's usually the holy spirit using
my body to talk to me. I am a perceiver
in this, just as the rest of the world is.
Understanding how my body works as a TWO-way communication
medium for HIGHER MIND, has been interesting.
For example, today.
I posted the petition, and then posted it some more. Then I heard sirens outside. Ok, so the effect was a success. There will definitely be an investigation as
a result of that one.
I told my self, for a silly phone-game that I play, "If
I get [a certain rare card] today, I won't go to the NIA office." Chances of getting that card were slim, about
1%. Then I got it. Then I told myself, "Ok, I don't need to
go. I choose to go." Then I got the inspiration that had me think
the silly thought in the first place.
So I went to that fancy house. I printed a copy of the petition update at
the local 7/11, 8 pages on two sides for four sheets of paper, costing NT$16,
about 0.55 USD.
Now, I could have put any number in the USD field, that's
close enough to it, and "55" is really the right one. Not only because it's about right in money
value, but because the number "5" is "ever the number for
change" according to Edgar Cayce.
In Feng-shui terms, that's a sign of hope which the minds of readers
must innately interpret as GOOD, even if they haven't a clue what I'm actually
talking about.
The NIA fancy-house office in Tainan City
I walked in the front door and was met with a counter, all
well and good. There were only about 20
people inside, in line. There was not
space enough to seat all those people on the first floor. And the house looked like a mini-castle from
the outside!
The stair-case structure was neat, but, again, for visual
effect the practicality was expensed and usable space was lost.
Ok, so The Ministry Of The Interior decided to preserve a
relic that has no other really useful purpose by turning it into a public office. At least the small rooms stuck in other
places were air-tight enough to allow for effective air-conditioning.
The first floor was for residency card renewals and other
applications. The police were... on a
higher floor? I climbed the stairs. There was no elevator that I could see. This was, after all, a house.
Eventually I found someone.
That person took me back downstairs and told me to take a number. I tried to protest, "I'm fairly sure
that's just for applications, yes? [confirmation received] Ok..."
Then a white-shirt came for a drink at the water stand in
front of my chair.
"Excuse me, I have a complaint against a company that
is lying about me. Am I supposed to be
in this line?"
The officer took a moment to clue in. The number on his nametag was 02209. His name was only in Chinese; I assume it was
his name.
He listened and gave the common suggestion, "You need
to talk to The Labor Affairs Bureau".
I happily told him that I had, and that I had gone to the
police, and the court, and back to Labor Affairs Bureau, and that they told me
to go to court again.
He looked at me.
"Where are the police?"
He wasn't sure what I was talking about. He insisted there weren't any foreign affairs
police in the structure.
I think he got that I wasn't about to leave without a
suggestion for a destination of where else I might go, or what else I might
try.
He took me into his office, a shared space for three,
without space for cubicles or dividers.
He offered a chair, and called The Labor Affairs Bureau. He called a few different numbers and spoke
to several people.
***
His final answer was, "Mr. Lin is away today. Call Mr. Lin (I've previously written about
him; he arranged the 4 May 2018 mediation) on Tuesday between 8 and 12. He'll arrange a time for you to come in, and
the papers you need."
Mr. 02209 had a good look at my residency card before
passing it back to me with the reply, "It's not expired. You're all good."
I thanked him and left.
Mr. 02209 had called.
They were prepped that I was back for round X (not actually 10, more
like 6 or 7).
Why wait until calling next week? I still have that Kang Ning job on Tuesdays
anyway, and wouldn't be able to call at the requested time without bugging
someone at the school for a phone.
It was about 3:30 pm on a Friday, and that place was just
around the corner, more or less. There
is a free lawyer service right there, at The Labor Affairs Bureau, on the 8th
floor of Tainan City Hall
***
I arrived in time. A
kindly elderly volunteer completely missed that fact that I was asking for a
number to talk to the lawyer, and started walking me to where I'd meet Simon
Lin, if he were there.
I rebutted with each step.
Eventually her body seized and she looked up. "Lawyer?" she confirmed. I replied, "Yes." We turned around.
She sat me down and handed me a form. I told her "Wo kan bu dong.
Pine-tzsay." That translates
as "I can't read it (literally: "I look no understand"). Sorry."
She left to find someone like Simon Lin. A woman arrived. I don't recall the next confusion, but she
eventually clued in that I couldn't read the form and translated what it said.
I guess I could have used Google Translates visual
text-to-text translator, but that's also needed a live wifi connection which
wasn't available, and I was recording the talking so didn't really want to draw
unnecessary attention to my phone.
The form was done, and I was next in line. My gaze took notice of the lawyer as he
looked into the book of law, lying open in front of him. I took notice of it twice, without thinking
anything odd about it.
A short wait later, and I sat with a lawyer. I asked for his name-card. He thought out loud, "Name-card, I
didn't bring any."
You know, it's funny.
Sometimes when people say "I don't have any identification to give
you." you can just tell that they're full of shit. Other times, a simple thought is accepted as
completely sincere.
There was a name in front of him. I actually neglected to ask if that was his
name. I assumed that it was. I asked if I could take a picture, for my
wife who can read Chinese. He didn't
object.
I think the addition of my wife to the question through his
mind, because he seemed only to wonder about why my wife would want to read the
sign, and not that I could later ask her to type his name for me.
***
The lawyer was kind, and older. He spoke more as a person than a lawyer. He didn't speak any English, but he seemed to
get my meaning despite my absolutely horrible and broken spoken Chinese.
Honestly, I should really apply myself more to learning
Chinese while I'm here, it would only help me communicate later on (but, then
again, I'm also not shy to ask absolutely anyone for help, and the more people
I ask...).
This person came to help:
***
She did a great job translating, once I blasted her ego into
oblivion. And by "blast" I do
literally mean shouting at a VERY LOUD volume in an open office space to an
audience of over 30 people. It's
probably not something that she's experienced before. I mean, I completely lost it on her when she
started suggesting to the lawyer that I spent time in jail for a sex-crime.
"DO NOT TALK ABOUT MY PAST. YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND IT. YOU DO NOT REMEMBER IT. I WAS NOT IN JAIL FOR "sexual
embarrassment" TO ANYONE."
After that, the conversation was smooth. The lawyer offered that I could continue in
Chinese, and that honestly sounded like a good idea. So I tried.
Eventually she stepped in to help, and round and round the argument
went.
First, "Why was I there?"
Then, "What's going on?"
Then, "What happened?"
Then...
It's summarized in the petition update at the start, https://www.change.org/p/her-excellence-ms-tsai-please-help-us-correct-injustices-occurring-in-canada/u/23300652
My former boss is lying.
I came here to mediate. The
company lied at the mediation. Tainan
Labor Affairs Bureau closed the file, and referred me to court. The Legal Aid Foundation (LAF) gave me a
lawyer to help recoup income, but that's only for money. That doesn't fix the argument. It doesn't solve the problem.
Prosecutors sent me back to police, and police told me to
come back here. That's why I'm
here. And I've done this circle at least
twice.
A bit more talking (there's a voice file for that, that may
or may not be dropped into a Google Doc bin at some later time and offered freely
to the public for anyone to listen in).
We got down to a point.
There are two criminal code sections involved in what the lawyer, and
Labor Affairs Bureau, considered to be exclusively a civil matter.
In the first case, I am charged with ruining the reputation
of the vice president of Kidsland.
In the second, Kidsland is legally committing fraud, not to
mention falsely accusing me of slandering them with seditious libel (I've
always spoken well of them, because I did enjoy working there).
The lawyer began down the line, "If you haven't said
anything untruthful..." my mind jumped to the ends that I assumed (without
knowing that I was assuming). "Yes,
I know the charge will fall away. I'm
not worried about that."
He continued, "then you should go to court..."
again, my mind jumped, "I did go to court!"
And we talked about dates.
There was precisely one prosecutor "investigative" meeting
(court in Taiwan works a bit differently than Canada, the prosecutors don't
just have an office, they have a building bigger than most courthouses in
Canada).
The meeting was on 26 June 2018. Since then, nothing. No paper, no other meeting, nothing.
The lawyer asked what happened at the meeting. Did both parties attend?
I replied, "Yes.
Both were present. I didn't have
a translator, so the meeting was put off.
There hasn't been another notice.
It's been almost 3 months."
That lawyer, he was patient with me. After I got over my own ego in that
situation, I was finally able to hear him.
The lawyer suggested, "If you haven't said anything
untruthful, then you should go to court.
The next time you go to court, you can ask the court to mediate."
"I can do that?"
That was the golden ticket!
Then the Labor Affairs Bureau piped in. "Because this is already a criminal
matter, because they have charged you, we cannot mediate. The law prevents it. So it doesn't matter if you think we should
mediate again."
She didn't add that last sentence, but the meaning is
implied, and needs to be fully understood.
It is therefore not correct for prosecutors to refer this
matter back to the police, and the police back to The Labor Affairs
Bureau. The responsibility to correct
this now rests directly with the prosecutors.
Therefore, prosecutors in Tainan City
I was advised that the option to "mediate" was not
something prosecutors had to grant. It
is only something they have the ability to encourage, or to order, if they so
choose.
My ego thought up a solution. "Ah, I've met the prosecutor in Kaohsiung City Kaohsiung ,
because I live there (and I'm the defendant in the slander/libel suit) if the
Tainan Prosecutor doesn't grant the mediation request."
I'm honestly not sure why a prosecutor would not grant the
request of a party to mediate with another party if the requesting party is
able to infallibly demonstrate the other party to be with criminal guilt. However, there is stupidity, arising usually
from stupor, which always occurs when a matter is not fully understood. And, to safe-guard stupor, there is God.
Thanked the lawyer and the translator. The chatter around us had increased
noticeably. There was jubilance in the
air, and the minds of those near us were expressing joy, naturally, and
completely without understanding the Feng-shui behind the process.
I returned home. Nap
time.
Dreams were ok. I
awoke still tired, and lay in bed.
Sometimes insight flows more easily in transient states before or after
rest.
A few "ego" bubbles popped to, through, mind. I didn't record the thoughts. Those are the thoughts that I might quote as
my "alter ego". It's actually
nothing more than an unconscious culture cluster accepting The Atonement
process, i.e., that it is itself an integral part of something more, from which
it cannot be divided, and thus must accept that it is a much larger culture
than it had previously before ever imagined.
The last thoughts of the sub-culture are often quite funny
to me. In this case, it was something
like, "Wow, he's just taken over (the legal mental structure of the minds
reading his text that are actually governing the entire country of) Taiwan . We're going to serve this guy! Does he understand that?"
At other times, "He's telling me he's God! No, he's telling me that I'm God and he's God
too. Wtf is he telling me?" or "I just don't understand."
At some point after posting the 21 Sept 2018 petition update
(I think the time-difference might have marked it 20 Sept 2018), "He's
just thrown me a helix. I can't beat
this."
The visual picture accompanying "helix" was of a
transparent ball with a continuous black strand around the outside defining its
general shape but not ever in a straight line (because it formed the
sphere). I should probably insert a
picture here. *** (<-- my personal quick-search reference)
The meaning of "helix" is more-or-less
"comparatively complex".
In this case, most people would present a document with one
specific legal matter. Any lawyer (or
legally-attuned mind) can comprehend the document and reply accordingly. The reply serves only to support or deny the
argument.
However, I understand that in the end all legal arguments
are merely a subset of just one-same eternal argument. Therefore, all legal arguments can, and will,
become mutually supportive as the argument is unravelled, or wound-down to a
singular point in time and space for its, again, perceptually relative absolve. I'm picking 31 March 2019 as a potential
date, and am wending my arguments to that date.
That doesn't mean that I'll be done arguing on 31 March
2019. It just means that all the current
arguments in my life right NOW can all be resolved as a single action on that
day. In that case, I am writing not just
one, but ALL of my arguments (all real problems affecting me expressed as legal
arguments, and usually actually involving, or encroaching upon involving, the
real enforcers of law in my current environment).
Ah, about Taiwan
with respect to law enforcement.
The more time Taiwan offers me, the more I am
able to narrow all current arguments into a streamlined point. That doesn't become a helix, it becomes a
really hard, completely unbreakable, legal nut--a golden legal nugget.
And what I've written, in that petition update, https://www.change.org/p/her-excellence-ms-tsai-please-help-us-correct-injustices-occurring-in-canada/u/23300652
, about The United Nations inviting Taiwan
back in as a member country even without application on the part of Taiwan ...
just watch.
