    TEXT: 
  /LP,/TX,/XT  At odds for half a century, two bitter enemies confront each other at close 
    range, both heavily armed, neither willing to back down. That was the 
    situation facing President Clinton as he flew off last Saturday on his 
    visit to India and Pakistan. But an even more urgent example of an old rivalry 
    fraught with fresh risks awaited his attention on the other side of Asia. 
    In a close election, Taiwan challenged the communist rulers of mainland China by 
    voting a pro-independence party into power. 
     
  /TX  The Taiwanese election disrupted the status quo on several fronts. It 
    represented the most serious threat yet to the principle, officially 
    honored in both Washington and Beijing, that Taiwan is just a wayward province of 
    China, destined for eventual reunification. The vote also set in motion the 
    first democratic transfer of power in China's 5,000-year history. And it 
    ended more than 50 years of unbroken rule by the Kuomintang (KMT), the once 
    iron-fisted regime of Chiang Kai-shek and his Nationalist exiles.  Last week's 
    victor was Chen Shui-bian, 49, the son of a poor farmer and leader of a party 
    that favors independence from China.  Only three days before the vote, Chen 
    reacted to a warlike warning from Beijing by insisting: "Taiwan is an independent, 
    sovereign country.  It is not a part of the People's Republic of China. 
     
    Washington and Beijing disagreed.  Clinton reaffirmed America's longstanding 
    "one China" policy and urged "both sides to reach out and resolve their 
    differences peacefully through dialogue."  Beijing wasn't reaching out. 
             (...) 
    But before it passes the tariff bill, Congress may demand a concession from 
    Clinton--most likely the sale to Taiwan of the four Aegis-class antimissile 
    cruisers it has requested. "It's very important to show strong support for 
    Taiwan," says James Lilley, a former U.S. ambassador to China. The key to 
    maintaining peace, he says, is "not to let the Chinese dictate the terms." 
    But for both Washington and Taipei, standing up to China will be a risky 
    business.
