Taiwan’s ambassador the Vatican is baptized:

The Taiwanese ambassador to the Vatican was so impressed with seeing "an inner peace and happiness" in the Catholics he met while living and working in Rome that he decided to convert to Catholicism.

Ambassador Tou Chou-seng was baptized Catholic during an April 17 Mass in his parish Church of St. Eugenio in Rome. The 20th-century church is run by the personal prelature of Opus Dei, and Spanish Bishop Javier Echevarria Rodriguez, head of Opus Dei, presided over the Mass and baptism.
