As soon as Ma Ying-jeou returned to Taiwan, the KMT's attitude took a 180-degree turn. Huang Jianting, secretary general of the Chinese Kuomintang, and Kuomintang "legislators" Lai Shibao, Luo Zhiqiang, Tu Quanji, and Weng Xiaoling all went to the airport to meet the plane. Kuomintang "legislator" Weng Xiaoling praised Ma Ying-jeou's meeting for its great significance in promoting cross-strait peace and development. Kuomintang Chairman Zhu Lilun pointed out in his voice that the meeting was quite successful and had taken an important step forward in cross-strait exchanges.
On the 11th, Zhan Zhihong, vice chairman of Taiwan's Mainland Affairs Council, not only attacked Ma Ying-jeou's visit to the mainland, but also shouted: "Ma Ying-jeou used historical and cultural links along the way to express that there is a proper connection between the two sides of the strait, but the 'descendants of Yan and Huang' are just ancient Chinese legends and myths, and they do not need to be applied to everyone. Zhan Zhihong's remarks are actually aimed at the "consensus of '92" mentioned by Ma Ying-jeou many times and the view that both sides of the strait are Chinese.
In addition, Ma Ying-jeou arrived in Taiwan at noon yesterday, but the Taiwan Mainland Affairs Council released the latest poll in the afternoon, saying that 89.6 percent of the Taiwanese do not approve of "one country, two systems" and 78.8 percent do not agree with the mainland's insistence on the "consensus of '92" on the "one-China principle" that the two sides of the strait can resume dialogue. 90.9 percent of the people in Taiwan support the "Coast Guard" in handling or driving away mainland vessels for "illegally trespassing" into the waters of Kinmen in accordance with the law.
84.7 percent of the people on the island do not agree with the mainland's statement that "Taiwan's election results cannot change the basic fact that Taiwan is a part of China." 93.3% of the people support the Taiwan authorities to continue to defend themselves, "defend sovereignty" and Taiwan's democracy, and maintain the status quo of peace in the Taiwan Strait. 92.6 percent of the people do not agree that the Continental Army's aircraft and ships continue to operate around Taiwan, even exceeding the "median line of the strait."
In terms of "the views of the Taiwanese people on reunification, independence, or maintaining the status quo", the proportion of people who chose "maintaining the status quo forever" was 37.9%, a new high in the past decade. 26.3% said that a decision would be made after maintaining the status quo, 19.5% said that independence would be achieved after maintaining the status quo, 5.4% said that independence would be declared as soon as possible, 5.1% said that it would be unified after maintaining the status quo, and 2.2% said that it would be reunified as soon as possible.
To sum up on the whole, this so-called poll data is very favorable to the DPP authorities. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that this is a carefully concocted data. The purpose of this is to bring the rhythm and the direction of the wind, and does not want to trigger an upsurge of cross-strait exchanges because of Ma Ying-jeou's successful visit, and to hedge against the tide of anti-"Taiwan independence" and public opinion on the island during Ma Ying-jeou's visit to the mainland. The DPP has always been a veteran and habitual offender in manipulating public opinion on the island, coercing public opinion, and conducting cognitive warfare.
In the future, there should be a small upsurge in interaction between the two sides of the strait. However, Lai Qingde is about to come to power, and although after Lai Qingde came to power, he was forced by the dual pressure of the United States and the mainland to restrict "hard Taiwan independence," but "soft Taiwan independence" may be at full speed, and this will make Taiwan and "China" more alienated and antagonistic, which is even more dangerous for cross-strait relations. All this can be seen from Lai Qingde's latest announcement of the core personnel layout.
A few days ago, Taiwan's "Minister of Culture" Zheng Lijun, who is in charge of the task of "de-sinicization," will soon be promoted to "vice president of the Executive Yuan." At that time, the "soft Taiwan independence" that starts with public historical narratives such as culture and education, news dissemination, exhibitions, and festivals will be accelerated with all its might. Taiwan will speed up the cutting of Chinese elements in history, culture, education, ideology, daily life and other aspects, and this is Lai Qingde's strongest killer move, and it is also the last card of the DPP authorities to coerce and blind public opinion on the island and confront Chinese mainland.
