Businessman seeks WWII tragedy closureStaff writer, with CNAWorld War II might have ended 80 years ago, but for businessman Hsu Shun-lung (許順隆), it continues to echo in Taiwan through a tragedy that has yet to be brought to a final resolution. Businessman Hsu Shun-lung, center, poses with members of the Preparatory Committee for Settlmenet of Sancha Mountain Incident Victims in an undated photograph. After learning of the history, Hsu in November last year began to coordinate efforts to recover the remains of the deceased rescuers. For Hsu, those actions were a start, but not enough to honor the deceased rescuers, whose remains, Hsu believes, are still in pristine condition on Sancha Mountain. That has not discouraged Hsu from pursuing his primary goal — to give the deceased rescuers a proper burial, he said.
