An army of hackers based in China has broken into Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) databases, stealing classified information such as President Chen Shui-bian's (???) personal itinerary, according to a Cabinet official who asked not to be named.

"This is the first time we have found that the DPP headquarters' computer systems were breached by Chinese hackers," the official said. "The incident has sent jitters through the Ministry of National Defense, which deems a systematic information attack launched by China as military warfare."

Information stolen from party headquarters included the personal itineraries of Chen, who doubles as DPP chairman, and those of other high-ranking party officials such as DPP Secretary-General Chang Chun-hsiung (???).

Also leaked was classified information on visits to the US by high-ranking DPP officials ahead of the US presidential election.
