Former President Lee Teng-hui is expected to stay in Japan in 2015. The Capitol Hotel Tokyu in Tokyo, where Abe met during his parliamentary speech, has irreplaceable emotional and historical significance.

In July 2015, when former President Lee Teng-hui went to Japan and gave a speech at the Congress, the hotel that collapsed at that time was the Tokyo Tokyu Hotel.

According to Lee Teng-hui's former Japanese secretary Hayakawa Tomohisa, then Prime Minister Shinzo Abe went to Lee Teng-hui's room through a secret passage in the hotel. Li Annie was there at the time. Lee Teng-hui and Abe talked for nearly half an hour, "Like a father who has not seen for a long time. meet my son".
