Taiwanese students storm government headquarters after week-long sit-in of Parliament
SITTING THEIR GROUND: SITTING THEIR GROUND: (L-R) Tsai Ing-wen, Frank Hsieh and Su Chen-chang, top party members from the main opposition Democratic Progressive Party, outside the Taiwanese parliament as activists occupied the building early last Wednesday.
FLOODED: Protesters took over the main chamber in Taiwan's parliament on March 19 and have remained there.
TAKEOVER: (Right) Protesters, mainly college students, stormed Taiwan's parliament and have barricaded themselves in with chairs.

Taiwan riot police yesterday unleashed water cannons to evict hundreds of demonstrators who had stormed government headquarters, dramatically escalating a protest against a trade pact with China.
After close to week-long occupation of Taiwan's parliament, the protesters also infilitrated the Executive Yuan where the cabinet offices are located. On Sunday night, they pulled down barbed-wire barricades outside and used ladders to break into offices on the second floor, reported AFP.
This came after President Ma Ying-jeou refused to back down on the trade pact.
Premier Jiang Yi-huah, whose office is in the Executive Yuan building, said at least 110 people were injured, included 52 police officers, while 61 arrests were made.
Some protesters damaged windows and doors of ministerial offices and tried to remove government documents before they were stopped, officials said.
They added that the premier's office was not breached.
Early on Monday, riot police dragged up people sitting on the ground, and used riot shields to push the crowds back while some of the demonstrators tried to grab their batons and pelted them with plastic bottles.
Two water cannon trucks were then deployed, eventually subduing the crowd and clearing the building.
"Suddenly water was spraying at us and it was very powerful. My glasses flew off and I was very dizzy," said Mr Frank Hsieh, a former premier from the opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP).
WATER CANNONS
In a statement, the presidential office said the dispersal was lawful and denounced the violence.
"We will not tolerate actions designed to paralyse the government," it added.
But the DPP, which historically has favoured formal independence for Taiwan, called on Mr Ma to respond to the protesters' demands and scarp the pact.
"Forcible dispersals will only cause more students and police to get hurt and are likely to trigger more outrage and protests," the party said.
The president has warned that trade-reliant Taiwan could be marginalised without the China agreement, which is designed to further open up trade in services.
During the news conference on Sunday, President Ma denounced the parliamentary sit-in before the protests spread to the Executive Yuan.
"Is this the democracy we want? Do we have to do it this way, risking the rule of law?" he asked.
The pact, signed last July, is a follow-up to a sweeping economic cooperation agreement signed in 2010 to reduce trade barriers between high-tech Taiwan and the world's second-largest economy.
Some 200 protesters - mainly college students - stormed the parliament last Tuesday and took over its main chamber to stop Mr Ma's ruling Kuomintang (KMT) party from ratifying the agreement.
Following the unruly scenes at the Executive Yuan a short walk away, police showed no sign of intervening to retake control of the chamber, where the protesters remain holed up.
Parliamentary speaker Wang Jin-pyng, who is from the KMT party, has called for a peaceful resolution to the sit-in.
