Chair of majesty?!

After Mrs. Chen (郭麗容) illustrated her previous artwork, a chair of family story, she presented another kind of chair this morning.

"Why did you create this chair? it looks very luxurious and splendid." I asked.

"The former President A-Bien got scolded from the media almost every day as I read the newspaper or watched TV. Being elected as a President seemed to be supremely honorable, however, it's also extremely difficult to sit on that seat. This seat can be dangling and even overturned if care has not been taken. He was like sitting on the thorn bush, very suffering and uncomfortable. Could he lay down and relax a little bit? No way! There're so many iron nails on the back of the chair. Keep on alert always! As a President, he was so busy that there's not much time for lunch or not even a few minutes going to the restroom. That's why the stool has to be installed right beneath the seat. Though he had suffered and sacrificed himself a lot for this nation, he was scoffed with no reason."

"Of what material was this chair made?"

"It was made mainly by using scrape cloth, styrofoam, and animal feather. In addition, the sword, a symbol of authority, was purchased from abroad during one of my foreign trips. Thorn-like seeds (台語/洽雜某的種子刺刺的) were from the field, and iron nails from hardware store."

A chair can be a suffering story of a

President in the Red House in Taipei.
