Taipei, Taiwan: Tens of thousands of Taiwanese were rallying Sunday against President Ma Ying-jeou amid plummeting opinion polls and bipartisan anger over the wiretapping of legislators.
Local television reports said about 50,000 protesters were gathered in front of the Presidential Office in downtown Taipei on Sunday night to demand Ma step down over a host of issues, including economic management and a wiretapping scandal that has incurred the wrath of legislators across party lines.
