Established in 1951, Soochow University (Taiwan) my father's alma mater, a graduate in International Law. As one of the very first bank executive sponsored by Bank of Taiwan to attend 東吳大學. The campus is home to prominent politician and diplomat.
At the time, my father was the only French speaking employee at the bank where he held a managerial position in its international banking division. He was selected to intern at the Societe Generale in France. After his assignment was completed in Paris, our family moved from 愛國西路 to 中山北路二段 behind Ambassador Hotel. (台北國賓大飯)
Coincidentally, 中山北路二段 is the same neighborhood where Tsai Ing-wen was raised in Taipei, before she became the President of Taiwan.
