"God's Main Card Becomes a Bird Cage" China's Kuomintang Criticizes the Democratic Progressive Party for Stifling Taiwan's Democratic "Referendum"

author:Taiwan Net, China

According to Taiwan's "Lianhe Pao" on November 9, the Taiwan region will soon hold four major "referendum" votes at the end of the year, and the Chinese Kuomintang today held a "God's main card to change into a bird cage, who stifles Taiwan's democratic 'referendum'?" The reporter pointed out that in 2017, when the DPP authorities "revised the law" and lowered the threshold for the "referendum", they shouted "return power to the people", but after the defeat of the 2018 election, they immediately "revised the law" and "seized power from the people" the following year.

Huang Zizhe, vice chairman of the Kuomintang's Cultural And Communication Association, said that Su Zhenchang, head of Taiwan's administrative organs, had made it clear that "the referendum should be tied to the general election"; Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Qimai also said, "Don't tie the referendum to the general election as a poisonous snake and beast"; Lin Changzuo also said that "the amendment to the referendum law has finally passed the third reading." Let us practice direct democracy through practical action." As a result, Taiwan regional leader Tsai Ing-wen is "yesterday's pusher and today's murderer" for the "referendum."

Yang Zhidou, deputy spokesman for the Chinese Kuomintang, cited the example of Kaohsiung university students who "drifted north" and said that if the "referendum" and the general election could be held at the same time, they could save money on a round-trip high-speed rail ticket, and a young man could save 2980 yuan (1490x2) (NT$, the same below). In addition, if the "referendum" tied to the general election, the funding is only about 140 million; if it is held separately, it will cost 857 million yuan, a difference of 6 times. Yang Zhidou questioned whether the DPP does not take the taxpayers' hard-earned money seriously and has no concept of fiscal perpetuity, gradually pushing the People of Taiwan into a financial stalemate and even harming future generations.

Lin Jiaxing, vice chairman of the Chinese Kuomintang Cultural and Communication Association, cited scientific figures from media polls to point out that among young people aged 20-29 and 30-39, more than half of the public opinion supports the "referendum" to tie up the general election, and the public opinion tendency is obvious. The DPP's "revision of the law" destroys democracy, and on the issue of "referendum," it has been seen through by the younger generation in Taiwan. Lin Jiaxing called on the people of Taiwan to stand up and vote together with the Chinese Kuomintang to recover the right to "direct civil rights." (Taiwan Network Juanzi)
