their Hong Kong counterparts also showed support for the Beijing students by organizing large rallies and writing open letters in protest to the actions of the Chinese Communist government. Like in Hong Kong, these countries also contributed large donations of money in support of the protesters. In Taiwan there was support for the protests, with people also donating funds. For example, Chiang Wei-kuo, the General Secretary of Taiwan's National Security Council, launched a movement “ to send love to Tiananmen” by donating 100,000 New Taiwan dollars (about US$3300) to the Tiananmen movement. Some members of the Kuomintang also got involved; Li Chang-Yi (), a Central Committee member, set up a foundation called Support the Mainland Democracy Movement, which campaigned to raise 100 million New Taiwan dollars. In May 1989, Chinese State Security Ministry issued a report, which brought to attention the concern that the donations were not just out of good will, but that they were part of a foreign plot at work within the Tiananmen Protests underlining the controversy of some of these donations. The Communist Party believed that foreign agents were infiltrating the student movement and attempting to carry out subversion by promoting democracy in an attempt to pull China to liberalization, with donations being used to further this goal. The report later stated that in Taiwan, Grand Alliance for China's Reunification under the Three Principles of the People had opened a bank account with the Bank of Taiwan. The purpose of this account was so that Taiwanese citizens and groups could contribute money to support the democratic student movement on the mainland. Acts of foreign support such as these, and the involvement of foreign government personnel helped to fuel the Communist Party's fears that the student protests were being influenced by outside forces, and would be one of the best justifications for carrying out the crackdown. In the United States and Canada many citizens donated money to the protesters generously and spontaneously. The overseas Chinese community rallied in support for the Tiananmen protests generating one of the largest cases of support ever seen from the overseas Chinese community. By June 1, a report sent to the Politburo mentioned that people from the United States, the United Kingdom, and Hong Kong had donated more than US$1 million and tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars to the protesters.
