The list of the chief and deputy heads of Taiwan’s judicial agencies and the remaining five “justices” was released today. Taiwan's public opinion organization, the Kuomintang, criticized the list as extremely disappointing and unacceptable. Many people on the list clearly stand for "abolition of death". Is it "unconstitutional" to insist on the death penalty in the "Constitutional Court" of the Taiwan authorities? The "Chief Justice" is no longer a "remunerative organization" but will become a "thug organization." Moreover, all regulations related to the personnel consent rights of Taiwan's public opinion organizations have been frozen by the "Chief Justice". How can public opinion organizations exercise their personnel consent rights? Called Lai Qingde to come out and face him.

The candidates for this nomination are Zhang Wenzhen, the head of the judiciary, Yao Liming, the deputy head of the judiciary, and the nominees for "Justice" He Laijie, Chen Yuncai, Wang Bifang, Liao Ford, Liu Jingyi, etc.

The Kuomintang League stated that it had only one sentence for this list: "deeply disappointed and unacceptable." This list further highlights that "the Lai Ching-tak authorities employ nepotism, focusing on their own people and obedience is the most important." More importantly, is Lai Qingde foretelling that the death penalty in the "Constitutional Court" is "unconstitutional"? Those who are not in charge must make it clear to the outside world.

The Kuomintang League criticized that in the future, the "Constitutional Court" will be a subsidiary organization of the DPP Central Committee. How sad? How abominable. The "Justice" is no longer an "institution for rewarding mediocrity", but will become a "thug institution", which is completely unacceptable to the Kuomintang group.

The Kuomintang group said that before sending the list of nominees for the new "Chief Justice" to Taiwan's public opinion organizations, Lai must make it clear to the Taiwanese people and public opinion organizations that the norms related to the right to consent in personnel matters have been removed by the "Chief Justice" If all are frozen, how can public opinion organizations exercise their right to consent to personnel matters? Lai Qingde should not only engage in political disputes, suppress dissidents, and distribute power. Lai Qingde must face the current "constitutional" deadlock.

Regarding the list of "Justices", Luo Zhiqiang questioned whether this means that the attitude of the Lai authorities is to support "abolition of death"? We should clearly state our stance on whether the death penalty should be preserved or abolished. Don't use the "chief judge" as a shield because you want to abolish it but dare not do so.

Luo Zhiqiang bluntly said that Lai Qingde is not as good as Tsai Ing-wen in this regard. Tsai Ching-hsiang, the "Minister of Justice" appointed by Tsai, made it clear before leaving office that the death penalty is in line with Taiwan's constitutional provisions, and "abolition of death" must be carried out by Taiwan representatives who represent the public opinion. Public opinion institutions decide.

Luo Zhiqiang also pointed out that even a poll conducted by the Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation, which has a pro-green stance, in May this year showed that 84.6% of the people were opposed to abolishing the death penalty, and only 10% were in favor. He hoped that the Lai authorities would realize their mistakes and not go against public opinion. Otherwise, it will inevitably create social antagonism and conflict.
