When Ke Wenzhe, chairman of the People's Party, participated in an event recently, he was criticized for "academic discrimination" because he boasted that his supporters had high academic qualifications.
According to Taiwanese media reports on the 4th, Ke Wenzhe attended the Hsinchu Xiaocao Thanksgiving Party in Hsinchu City on the 3rd. He said that it is no longer easy for the People's Party to bubble up, because its support rate has grown to 22%. "If you do not support the Kuomintang or the Democratic Progressive Party, there is no other option left, only Taiwan." Popular Party". He revealed that the People's Party's largest ballot box in Taiwan is at Kinmen University, the second is Penghu University of Science and Technology, the third is Nantun in Taichung City, and the other seven are all in Hsinchu Science Park. Ko Wenzhe said that the supporters of the People’s Party have several characteristics, they are middle-aged, young, and highly educated. Generally speaking, high education also implies high income, so the People’s Party is very similar to an elite party. “If it is stipulated that those who go to college Only then can we vote, we have already won." Zhou Yuxiu, secretary-general of the People's Party, said afterwards that for the People's Party, every vote is important.
Ke Wenzhe’s remarks were quickly criticized as “academic discrimination.” DPP "legislator" Lin Chuyin claimed that Ke Wenzhe's purpose was to use discriminatory remarks to divert the focus from "releasing" Han Guoyu's election as "Legislative Yuan". Kuomintang Taipei City Councilor You Shuhui said on Facebook on the 4th that in the face of defeat in the 2024 Taiwan region leadership election, some people in the Kuomintang are still in a state of not admitting defeat, always creating an atmosphere of "everyone in the world is responsible for me" and trapped in themselves. A perfect misunderstanding that puts the wrong emphasis on many things. (Zhang Ruo) ▲
