Taiwan Set To Become First Asian Country To Allow Same-Sex Marriage

Taiwan might just be the first Asian country to legalize same-sex marriage. The legislature committee approved the bill last Dec. 26 and has begun new session that will likely last until mid-year. Supporters are saying they have the endorsement of a bipartisan group of almost half of the parliament. Marriage equality also has the backing by President Tsai Ing-wen.
