Features: Criticized one person wrongly, lost three billion. It is easy to speak for others, but it is difficult to speak for what others want to say, and even harder to speak for what others dare not say. Since the Republic of China, the Supervisory Yuan has been considered a mouthpiece for the people, yet their voices have not been heard. Upon closer inspection, it turns out that the mouths of the critics have been silenced, focusing only on eating and neglecting to speak. Mr. Ma was not a critic, but his mouth was truly admirable. Whether he was eating or not, he always had to speak! The Chongqing Xinhua Daily sent a birthday couplet for Mr. Ma Yinchi's sixtieth birthday: "Unyielding and undaunted, showing his temperament; daring to speak and dare to be angry, revealing his spirit." In his old age, Mr. Ma wrote an article in the newspaper, saying: "Although I am nearly eighty years old, I know that I am outnumbered, I will come out alone to fight until I die, and I will never surrender to those critics who use force rather than reason. Because I have a certain confidence in my theory, I cannot give up, and I must uphold the dignity of scholarship." After Mr. Ma passed away, a mourning couplet at his grave read: "Mr. Ma, in the old society, was not afraid of oppression and dared to be angry and speak; his patriotic heart was deeply respected by the people. As a teacher, he conducted rigorous scholarship for the new China, sought truth from facts, and insisted on the truth without yielding, serving as a model for the younger generation."
