Paul John Farrell (Taiwan)
[edit]Paul John Farrell is a British expatriate who has gained notoriety in Taiwan for his outspoken views on Taiwanese independence and his unconventional actions.[1]
He is perhaps best known for having the traditional Chinese characters for "Taiwan" tattooed on his forehead and a Taiwanese independence flag tattooed on his chin.[2]
These tattoos, which he got while intoxicated, have made him a controversial figure in Taiwan and have led to various legal and social issues.[3]
