Losin Watan Memorial Park

A memorial park in Fuxing honouring Losin Watan (樂信·瓦旦, 1899–1954), a Tayal Indigenous physician and politician executed by the state during the White Terror. Taken as a child hostage after Japanese forces crushed the Dabaoshe (大豹社) uprising led by his father, he was schooled into the colonial medical service and later returned to his hometown to practice medicine. In the post-war era he rose to the Provincial Assembly, where he pressed for Indigenous self-governance and the return of Tayal ancestral lands. In 1952 he was arrested on fabricated charges of communist subversion alongside the Tsou leader Uyongu Yatauyungana (高一生), and shot in Taipei on 17 April 1954; his conviction was not formally revoked until 2018.
