description [...]the constitutional amendment requiring uniform compensation for members of the National Congress passed, but the congress and Remengesau took months to get agreement on this issue. [...]on 18 May, President Remengesau signed a $52.6 million budget for 2005, using his veto authority to reduce funding for various state projects and grants. In June, Taiwan Vice President Annette Lu made a three-day visit to Palau for the grand opening of the Royal Resort, receiving state visit treatment. Besides opening the new six-story hotel and planting a tree of friend-ship, Madame Lu announced an increase of direct flights from Taiwan to Palau and additional scholarship opportunities in Taiwan for young Palauans. [...]he claimed that the "universal value of self-determination is a common conviction of both nations, and serves as the foundation for our cooperation in the international arena" (TBN, 28 Jan-4 Feb 2005, 14). Besides the $2.0 million loan a few years ago from Taiwan's International Commercial Bank of China for phase two of Palau's national capital project in Melekeok, Taiwan this year provided grants for short roads-$640,000 to Aimeliik for a joo-yard-long road, $130,000 to Ngchesar for a road/causeway project, and $1.1 million for a connecting road-as well as another $409,000 for a water system in Melekeok.
