Kung fu schools in Taiwan
TAIPEI - CHINA plans to open a kung fu academy and several cultural centres in Taiwan to promote martial arts from the mainland's famed Shaolin Temple, media on the island said on Monday.

Xu Guangchun, head of a delegation from central China's Henan province where the Buddhist monastery is based, said the project is expected to cost about 300 million yuan (S$62 million), said the United Daily News.

Disney Fu eh?


Lolz! They already have their foot in the door there! Took the family there this past year & just happened to see some so called Shaolin Monk show. One so called monk was from what I could make of it sitting on the ground doing a hop (Break dancing) with a chain whip. I'm thinking, ... Hmmm the Shaolin break dance of death. Made for a good laugh though.:)
