Ma Yingjiu posted on his personal Facebook page on 27, saying that after nearly three months, most of the Taiwan compatriots stranded in Hubei returned to Taiwan. During this period, I repeatedly called on the government to assist the people in returning to Taiwan as soon as possible, but unfortunately, due to political considerations, the government adopted obvious double standards, which made the journey of Taiwan compatriots long and hard. Especially the “class charter flight” via Shanghai is the most tormented. Wuhan is 1,100 kilometers away from Shanghai, which is about one week's distance around the island of Taiwan. The journey takes 11 hours. The “class charter flight” has become the “tired charter flight” .
Ma Ying-jeou said that a few days ago, a number of members of the Taiwanese Self-Rescue Association stranded in Hubei came to see him after returning to Taiwan to complete the isolation and quarantine. He expressed his gratitude for his continued support. Ma said that he was ashamed of it, and that he has resigned from public office with limited strength and cannot allow the people to get the assistance that the government should provide. What he did, " is just for the basic human rights and humanity of our compatriots, speaking what should be said ".
Ma Ying-jeou said that these folks who had finally returned home told themselves that they very much agreed with the government’s strict epidemic prevention measures and fully cooperated. However, it is difficult to understand that the government has not adopted the same for people returning from high-risk areas such as Europe and the United States. Standard epidemic prevention measures. What makes them even more sad is that because of the differential treatment of the government, many people have followed to discriminate against them, and even regard them as "viruses."
Among the 1,435 Taiwan compatriots who took the chartered flight and the "tired charter flight" back to Taiwan from Hubei, only 1 tested positive, accounting for only 1 of the more than 340 imported cases in Taiwan. Facts have proved that the risk of infection of Taiwan compatriots stranded in Hubei is far lower than that of Taiwan compatriots returning from Europe and the United States.
Taipei Mayor Ke Wenzhe said, “ New York is more dangerous than Wuhan ”, that’s true. However, the government has included them on the "blacklist." The more than 200 Taiwan compatriots still stranded in Hubei still cannot take the plane back to Taiwan on their own. Discrimination still exists. It has been three months. Why does the government still torture them like this?
Ma Ying-jeou said that he cheered for them and suggested that even after returning to Taiwan, "Don’t lose your ambition, don’t break up the group, record your own experiences, and treat unfair treatment such as bullying , discrimination, etc. , We must speak up bravely and fight for our rights."
Ma Ying-jeou encourages them not to be afraid of setbacks, as long as they stand on the side of justice, justice and kindness, the situation can be reversed. Even if the pain has passed, their continued efforts can awaken the conscience of society and deter the recurrence of similar incidents.
Ma Ying-jeou said that when the epidemic will come to an end, Taiwan may have achieved dazzling results in epidemic prevention, but in terms of human rights and humanitarianism, the Tsai authorities will leave a disgraceful " cold-blooded record ", rejecting thousands of people in 80 days. Back to Taiwan. He believes that this violates the rule that people have the freedom to live and move.
Ma Ying-jeou said that this episode of discrimination and bullying is still happening now, and it is still "progressive." For the love of compatriots, we once again ask the government to lift the "blacklist note" of the last 200 Taiwanese compatriots in Wuhan and return it to They have the right to fly back to Taiwan freely. Now that there is still time for change, the government is requested to treat every compatriot equally. Everyone puts aside prejudice, puts aside ideology, and stops bullying. It is still the most beautiful scenery in Taiwan. (End)
