00:00On Friday, Premier Zhu Rongtai publicly revealed his receipts for his trip to Japan
00:05after opposition lawmakers accused him of misusing public funds.
00:22Zhu went to Tokyo to watch Teen Taiwan go up against the Czech Republic at the World Baseball Classic.
00:27He showed receipts totaling over 65,000 U.S. dollars, covering tickets to the game, charter flights and other expenses.
00:36Zhu is the first sitting premier to visit Japan in decades.
00:39He says he went for a personal trip, not official business.
00:43Opposition lawmakers still questioned if the charter flight was cheaper due to Zhu's position
00:48and whether the plan had the right to use a military tarmac.
