After the Democratic Progressive Party was defeated, all parties continued to review critical voices. Everyone particularly paid special attention to Cai Yingwen, the supreme leader of the governing team.
Although two days after the election, she once said on Facebook that it was herself that should have changed; however, all the public speeches of Tsai since the election can be clearly seen that at least she does not think that the DPP has been reforming with reform.In order to capture the basic policy route of the name, fundamental changes need to be done.
Tsai Ing -wen emphasized that the country is walking on the right track. The direction of reform must continue to go firmly and defeat the election. It is only because of the reform road, encountering some thorns, or not being promoted to reform, and it is not enough.At most, add insufficient appeasement of the reform objects.On the night of defeat, the Democratic Progressive Party Secretary -General also believes that the DPP's defeat is just a wrong campaign strategy.
In fact, for the people, what Cai Yingwen said was not so important.Anyway, people who still support the DPP, do not want to listen to more discouraged words after being defeated; this time, those who have voted for the basic route of the DPP with votes reached a consensus through speaking or network dissemination. Next time, next time, next time, the next timeDuring the president and legislators, the DPP must be taught again.
As for the Democratic Progressive Party up and down, although they have been criticizing each other after the election, it is strange that no one has dared to pierce the lies of the king's new clothes so far.The DPP's large and small politicians do not dare to point out that the DPP will no longer change the basic route of anti -China Taiwan independence and accept the 1992 consensus, and there will be no serious problems in governance opportunities.And this is the biggest inspiration to the DPP this election.
Speaking of ironic, everyone feels that the Kuomintang is very old and unable to eat, but they have forgotten. History shows that since the two Chiang period, the Cross -Strait policy of the Kuomintang has undergone counterattacks on the mainland, the three non -policy, the unified China of the Three People's Principles, the National Uniform Program, and the opening of the country.Cross -strait communication has been adjusted by multiple elastic adjustments of the consensus of 1992 and each of the tables.
On the other hand, although the DPP has been amended in the basic line of Taiwan independence or the amendments to the party's outline in the past, when the development momentum of the other side is getting more and more rising, for Taiwan's market value, and the increasing number of tourism revenue that can bring to Taiwan is increasingly rising.After high, the Democratic Progressive Party completely lost its elasticity, in order to refuse the basic route in the 1992 consensus and the United States system, to make the maintenance of Taiwan's sovereignty and rejecting the interests of the mainland, and to make a zero -sum choice for the people.
The problem is that this operation not only affects the actual interests of the people in Taiwan, nor does it meet the era of the Malaysian government. Taiwan's sovereignty is not damaged, and interaction between cross -strait interactions can also allow Taiwanese to make money to make money.Therefore, this election result is not so much that the people want a new future, it is better to return to the era when the cross -strait policy is flexible and flexible.
And this is what the DPP needs to make decisions most after the election.Do you want to change the basic route of cross -strait policies and whether to make cross -strait policies a flexible and adjustable policies in response to the current situation, or the correctness of killing the current route is a problem for the DPP professional politicians to think about.If this has become a taboo topic in the party, it can be foreseeable.
Therefore, it is not the reform of the DPP. The people do not keep up, but the DPP has not kept up with the flexible and flexible thinking of the people!But the people don't care, will the DPP care about it?
Zeng Zhihao: Amazing similar election in Hong Kong and Taiwan
The Hong Kong Legislative Council Jiulong West Election and Taiwan's Nine -in -1 Election ended. Although the election nature is very different, they are all surprising.
Site reversal: Hong Kong's Jiuxi constituency has always believed that non -institutional factions account for most votes. In the 2016 elections, the total number of votes of the systems accounted for more than 30 %, which also made non -establishment confidence that they could defeat the crew opponent under the single -seat election.
As a result, 3.11 and this supplementary election were defeated, and Jiuxi two consecutive seats were made.The most embarrassing is that Li Zhuoren and Feng Jianji, who did not know whether they were a member of the Pan -people, increased, and it was not as good as Chen Kaixin, who was completely airborne.
Therefore, some people say that Jiuxi's map has changed, and even the experience of voting ratio of traditional non -construction and systems has failed.
In Taiwan's nine -in -one, the green space became a blue sky, and Kaohsiung, who had been green for 20 years, turned blue.Although the pendulum effect, it was lost in even the old nest of the Green Camp. The kind of surprise was as shocking as the election of the Hong Kong Pan -people's losing a single seat.
The causes of failure are related to people's livelihood and democracy.The results of the last two re -election are the wins that attach importance to the slogan of people's livelihood. Even though the non -construction faction believes that without real democracy, it is impossible to improve people's livelihood.
Taiwan is also amazing.When the Green Camp tried to blame the losses in cross -strait relations and Beijing's pressure, Taiwan's public opinion refuted that the nine -in -one election was the focus of local internal affairs.
The people are dissatisfied with the Green Camp's anxiety of Taiwan ’s name for independent countries but do not try their best to make a good economy.
Not paying attention to the changes in the people's conditions, it is difficult to move forward
Anti -Beijing card expires: There is always a shadow of Beijing's intervention in Taiwan elections.useless.
Similarly, the non -construction schools in Hong Kong also take the anti -Communist Party as the main axis.However, it is surprising that from 3.11 to this supplementary election, although Beijing's intervention in Hong Kong is becoming increasingly serious, it has failed to convert this Beijing threat into votes.Does it mean that playing the Beijing card is invalid?Or can voters believe that non -institutional factions can resist the Communist Party?
Conclusion: The elections in the two places have to find the cause. If you just blame to send merit and iron tickets in Beijing, but do not pay attention to the changes in people's conditions, it is difficult to move forward.
