Seeing that there are still two years to go in the 2022 Taipei Mayor War, Taiwan People’s Party Chairman and Taipei Mayor Ke Wenzhe’s two-term mayor term is about to expire, and the "blue, white and green" parties will begin. Undercurrents are surging. As one of the main competitors, the Democratic Progressive Party has naturally begun to crowd out the party. The DPP intends to elect Chen Shizhong, the head of the health and welfare department who has made outstanding achievements in epidemic prevention.
However, when Su Zhenchang, the head of Taiwan’s administrative agency, was interviewed by the media on September 7, his attitude was unpredictable. When asked whether Chen Shizhong was a candidate for the DPP, Su Zhenchang's answer was confusing. He claimed that the most important thing for every local chief is to do a good job in the locality, and that every elected figure must be worthy of the trust of the people, and he must take every step well like climbing a staircase. Is the status of
"epidemic prevention myth" not guaranteed?
Facing the outbreak of the new crown epidemic in Taiwan, Tsai Ing-wen highly affirmed the evaluation of the epidemic prevention commander Chen Shizhong. Chen Shizhong resolutely stood on the front line of Taiwan's epidemic prevention in the face of strong pressure, and introduced the "strongest" epidemic prevention measures for Taiwan, which made the Taiwan epidemic to reverse vigorously. Therefore, he won the glorious title of "epidemic prevention myth". And Chen Shizhong has gained a lot of honour within the DPP based on this feat in epidemic prevention, and has won the support of many people.
However, since Tsai Ing-wen announced the importation of Clenbuterol-containing American pigs and cows from next year, Chen Shizhong's opinion seems to be shaky. As the head of Taiwan's health and welfare department, in order to cater to the so-called "political correctness", he ignored the lives and health of the people, and he blatantly used the Clenbuterol platform to attract anger. In the face of the ups and downs, how does Lieutenant General Chen Shi maintain his position as a "shrine"?
Intra-party fighting continues to flow
Although Chen Shizhong has suffered from the epidemic, food safety and other issues, he still has the advantage of "shaking his merits." The person in charge of Taiwan's administrative agency used climbing stairs as a metaphor. Although there was no name or surname, the public guessed that one of his remarks was also insinuating Chen Shizhong.
Some time ago, Chen Shizhong promoted the upper limit of the self-payment limit for medical materials and increased the health insurance premium. This seems to be a secret for the DPP, and it also made Cai Yingwen and Su Zhenchang and other party members "not coming to Taiwan." Su Zhenchang also openly accused Chen Shizhong did not understand the "team way", indicating that "a policy should be promoted by the entire team." This move shows that Su Zhenchang does not seem to be optimistic about Chen Shizhong, and seems to have deliberately suppressed Chen Shizhong's public support and trust. As far as the DPP is currently fighting within the party, it is still necessary to observe who has more potential in the "general election" for the mayor of Taipei in 2022.
