The Straits Herald (reporter Xue Yang @ Taiwan Strait Master Brother) Taiwan's political legend Zhu Gaozheng died of illness last night at the age of 67, as a veteran figure of the Democratic Progressive Party, he chose to quit less than 4 years after the founding of the party, and then formed his own "Chinese Social Democratic Party", and also represented the New Party in running for the governor of Taiwan. Zhu Gaozheng has been committed to opposing "Taiwan independence" and supporting cross-strait reunification, and his death has also caused many people of the reunification faction to be reluctant to give up.
Zhu Gaozheng
In the early years, the DPP was not a monolithic "Taiwan independence" political party, but only a "anti-Kuomintang collective," in which there were "pro-independence" people and pro-unification factions that embraced democratic ideals. After the founding of the DPP, as the "independence" nature became stronger and stronger, some pro-unification factions chose to withdraw, the most typical of which was Fei Xiping, a big man outside the party. Fei Xiping, a native of Liaoning, was admitted to Peking University in his early years, abandoned his studies after the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and was elected to the "Legislator" in 1948; after going to Taiwan, he stood on the opposite side of the Kuomintang, advocated multi-party politics, and participated in the founding of the Democratic Progressive Party, and was one of the members of the eighteen-member group that founded the Party. However, fei Xiping announced his resignation from the DPP two years after joining the DPP and openly criticized him as a "Taiwan independence fascist."
Zhu Gaozheng, who is known for his "violent politics" style, officially parted ways with the DPP in 1990; Zhu's close friend, Lin Zhengjie, known as the "street bully," also quit the DPP the following year. Zhu and Lin are staunch reunification factions, and in recent years they have often traveled across the strait to make contributions to the cause of cross-strait exchanges.
Lin Zhengjie
In the year that Lin Zhengjie resigned from the party, the DPP adopted the "Taiwan independence party program" and completely degenerated into a "Taiwan independence party." Ironically, the DPP only wants to use "Taiwan independence" as an election tool and as a "cash machine" to fool specific voters, and the party machine has gradually been maintained by speculative politicians.
Recently, the "storm of informants" on the island has intensified, and the DARK and scheming side of the DPP has been exposed, and the relevant revelations can be described as shocking. The innuendo protagonists Su Zhenchang, Xie Changting, and others are still active in the political arena; they rely on "Taiwan independence" to rely on "power plots" and seize power to eat and drink, and have long forgotten the original intention of founding the party. Luo Wenjia, former secretary general of the Democratic Progressive Party, once lamented that the DPP is no longer the party with which he is familiar, and the current DPP will do whatever it takes to achieve its goals.
Zhu Gaozheng once said: "Advocating Taiwan independence is a dead end," and those politicians who use "Taiwan independence" as a tool to collide with cross-strait relations to gain political benefits will certainly be nailed to the pillar of historical shame.
