Caption Suleiman A. Suleimani (right), the first Bahá'í pioneer to Taiwan, accepts an award from Governor Lee Teng-hui of Taiwan's provincial government during a special ceremony last May 28 in Taichung that honored members of several major religions in Taiwan. Mr. Suleimani, who is now 85, settled in Tainan, Taiwan, in 1954 with his wife, who died last year, after having lived in Shanghai, China, for more than 26 years. Mr. and Mrs. Suleimani first pioneered to China from Ishqabad, Russia. In addition to long years of service on the National Spiritual Assembly of Taiwan, Mr. Suleimani and his wife built and donated to the Faith the country's first local Bahá'í Center. Nearly 40 Bahá'ís were among the 1,000 people who attended the award ceremony. Victor Tom, chairman of the National Spiritual Assembly of Taiwan, was seated on stage with the governor and representatives of eight other religions.
