Recently, the epidemic situation in Taiwan seems to be quite grim.
On April 24, the Taiwan Epidemic Command Center announced that there were 5,092 new locally confirmed cases of COVID-19, exceeding 1,000 cases for ten consecutive days, and 80 new imported cases.
Compared with the eye-popping epidemic data in the United States and Europe, Taiwan alone does not seem to be serious, but the problem is that Taiwan's population is already small. According to the latest data, as of the end of 2021, the total registered population of the island is only 23.5456 million people.
Such a place with a large population density can exceed the data of more than 1,000 cases for ten consecutive days, which shows that Taiwan's "era of big diagnosis" has arrived, and even Huang Shanshan, vice mayor of Taipei City, who is in home isolation, estimates that 20% of the population in Taiwan will be infected with the epidemic.
For the severe epidemic situation, Tsai Ing-wen has long held a "epidemic prevention conference" on the island, and as a result, on the second day after the meeting, because her family was diagnosed, Tsai Ing-wen herself was isolated, which is really not too embarrassing.
Chen Shizhong, commander of the "epidemic command center", once said that in the future, Taiwan is "not impossible" that 20% of the population will be diagnosed with the new crown, and then Taiwan will officially enter the opportunity of "coexistence with the virus".
However, the words and performances of the DPP authorities are unacceptable to the people on the island who are in dire straits.
Recently, the DPP authorities' "Comptroller General Office" announced that the unemployment rate in Taiwan was 3.66% in March, up 0.01% from February, and the overall pain index reached 6.93% as the annual growth rate of the consumer price index (CPI) soared to 3.27% in March.
With high prices, a severe epidemic, high unemployment, and the perfunctory attitude of the DPP authorities, the people on the island are indeed having a hard time.
Moreover, such a day is only the beginning, if the United States raises interest rates again, the island will also face the pressure of following up the interest rate hikes. If prices cannot be suppressed by raising interest rates at that time, the pain index will fall, and the people may face the situation of burning their livelihoods and loan interest.
However, the DPP authorities do not seem to have come up with specific countermeasures, but it is strange that the DPP authorities have the energy to "give love" to Ukraine. Recently, the DPP authorities announced a donation of 8 million US dollars to Ukraine, and netizens on the island ridiculed the DPP authorities for "really a lot of money", which is not the tax money of the pit people.
But spit on the spit, most people just vent their emotions online. But some Taiwanese artists have already taken action.
At the end of December 2021, Fang Fang, a 67-year-old veteran actor known as the "first sister of Taiwanese variety shows", said on social media that she had settled in the mainland.
On January 12, 2022, Liang Youlin, a Taiwanese female artist who was famous for participating in the hit drama "My Secret Garden", revealed through social media that she had settled with her husband in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province.
On January 9, 2022, Yang Zongwei, a Taiwanese singer who has sung songs such as "Cool Cool" and "Onion", which are highly sung in the mainland, made it clear in a variety show that he has now settled in Xiamen, Fujian Province.
Recently, Taiwanese entertainer Liu Qihong, who settled in the mainland, was even more popular in the mainland because of his live fitness broadcast.
In the live broadcast room, Liu Qihong played Jay Chou's "Compendium of Materia Medica", with a group of "Liu Qihong girls" began to dance gymnastics, his wife Wang Wanfei was also on the side, and the couple had already gained tens of millions of fans.
Liu Ruihong
For the enthusiasm of mainland fans, I am afraid that Liu Ruihong did not expect it, but the green media on the island began to say sour words. Liu Said That Liu "fished together as a whole, and a live broadcast directly earned 560,000 (NT$)". In this regard, some netizens on the island ridiculed the glass heart of the green camp netizens as "kicked by Liu Ruihong." ”
This is probably because I am not living well, and others can at least find a sense of existence.
Of course, there are also netizens on the island who shout to the Taiwan youth: The mainland is the future. Such netizens are indeed very sober, their actions are always more convincing than words, and there are still many people on the island who love the motherland and look forward to witnessing cross-strait reunification together.
