Song Chuyu stressed in the article that the three things that Liu Wenxiong attached the most importance to before his death were the modernization of Keelung Port, the urban renewal of Keelung City and the integration of Keelung Taipei's living circle, thanking him for his long-term tenure as the People First Party, but insisting on not paying salaries or cars, "Life, it is rare to have lovers, and it is enough to have these unrepentant partners in the political field!" ”
Song Chuyu took a facebook photo with Liu Wenxiong.
The following is the full text of Song Chuyu's Facebook:
Many people may not know that during my tenure as "Provincial Governor", I was initially not familiar with Fumio (then a "provincial councillor"). But it is precisely because of the relationship between the "provincial chairman", "provincial governor" and "provincial councillor" that the two of us gradually changed from work to friends and finally to the most solid comrades-in-arms.
When Fumihong was a "provincial councillor", he would accompany me on a trip to Keelung almost every month. I only arrived at the "provincial government" to work, the most touching thing to me is that when the so-called "rainy port" of Keelung had a lack of rain for 100 days without rain and lack of water, he pulled me to run to the Johor Bahru Reservoir, we actually saw someone camping at the bottom of the reservoir, in order to save the emergency, first use their brains to pump water from the abandoned mine pit, and the edible water is directly pulled from the Taipei County Banxin Water Plant to pull a pipe that is almost as high as the adult, and it is erected next to the highway, sending water to Keelung, solving the urgent need, and immediately planning to increase the Xinshan Reservoir. The problem of water shortage in Keelung has been fundamentally solved.
I also remember that for the development of Bisha Fishing Port, Fumihong gathered the "provincial government" team, fisheries association, and fisheries bureau personnel to see fisherman's wharf in San Francisco, USA, brought back the concept, and transformed Bisha Fishing Port into a base for combining fishing and sightseeing tourism (later this example became a model for tourist fishing ports and was promoted to other fishing ports in Taiwan Province). Whether it is the renewal and reconstruction of the Keelung Port Port Building, the widening and improvement of the Coastal Expressway, the upgrading and reconstruction of Keelung Hospital, the reconstruction of the aboriginal Eight Foot Gate Community, the construction of the parking lot in the downtown area, or the compensation for the arrears of the Dock Workers in Keelung Port, every scene reminds me of the figure of me and Wenxiong working together.
Our friendship like iron is not established at the dinner table, but on the construction site of the Johor Bahru Reservoir, on the side of the high wall blocking the view of the residents in the port area, in the mud after the typhoon, in the older communities (Guanghua, Anle, Chongfa...). Next to the dangerous building. The solution of one problem after another, like a steel wire, twists and turns, and becomes an emotion like a steel cable. "Nation", responsibility, honor, always before our personal future is considered.
Wenxiong, you and I often hang on the three things, one is the modernization of Keelung Port, the second is the urban renewal of Keelung, and the third is the traffic problem of Keelung and Taipei City's integration into a one-day living circle, these three major things, as a partner, I will continue to work hard for you.
Having feelings and righteousness, a man, never provoking trouble, not pushing responsibility, not hitting his own people, is the portrayal of Wenxiong's life. He has long served as a volunteer party cadre of the People First Party, without paying or equipping a car, never abandoning, always firmly supporting our group of old friends, and never wavering. Life, it is rare to have lovers, and it is enough to have these unrepentant partners in the political field! This affection will always be in my heart, in the mind of each of our good friends. Tears can't wash away my sorrow, words and words can't exhaust mutual affection, Wenxiong, thank you, you are my eternal brother!
