Billboards showing a turbaned man with a 'no entry' sign, put up by a candidate in upcoming local body elections in Taiwan, have unsettled the small but growing Indian community on the island - and drawn a sharp rebuke from one of the country's most senior officials.
The hoardings were put up about a fortnight ago in Kaohsiung city by Lee Hung-Yi, currently the chief of Gangming ward in the city's Siaogang district, who is contesting as an independent candidate in the Nov city council elections. The images circulated widely on Taiwanese social media.
