9-in-1 election , the DPP suffered a crushing defeat, Tsai Ing-wen left, and resigned as chairman of the DPP. What does it mean? KMT turns over, the DPP is in a slump? Or is cross-strait relations tending to be good and positive? In fact, these are indefinitely, and the future is still unknown. After all, the KMT also won a significant victory in the nine-in-one election, and the DPP also encountered great disadvantages in the situation, but the situation reversed in just two years, so it is impossible to make a clear judgment on the future political situation in Taiwan.
However, one thing that can be clear is that the gap in strength between the blue and green parties on the island has been further slapped, and the Kuomintang is no longer a little transparent. The situation of being crushed by the Democratic Progressive Party can have capital to compete for. The DPP is facing a reshuffle of power and a re-accumulation of political structure. Once the DPP's political forces gather again, 2024 will inevitably set off a higher level of power games, and even undercurrents will surging. Tsai Ing-wen's power may make a comeback, and we have to remain vigilant.
First from the DPP, Tsai Ing-wen's resignation as chairman of the DPP is just a prelude. The internal unrest and political reshuffle of the DPP are the second step in the butterfly effect of , and Su Zhenchang is the first to bear the brunt. Although Su Zhenchang resigned as the "Premier of the Executive", Tsai Ing-wen repeatedly comforted her, the reason was that "the situation was grim. The DPP needed a backbone to take charge of the central army so that she could adapt to the situation and respond."
But this was just Tsai Ing-wen's wishful thinking. Other DPP members did not think so. Li Dewei, a former "legislator" of the DPP, believed that "in the nine-in-one election, the DPP suffered a crushing defeat. Su Zhen-chang was to blame. He had to bear the greatest responsibility and how could he have the nerve to continue to stay in office. . "According to Taiwan media, the Taipei City Councillor of the DPP, Wang Shijian, recently shouted directly, "Su Zhenchang, who lost the election of the 'war criminal', should step down immediately. The people are the bosses. Through the vote, it has been explained that Su Zhenchang "winned his eloquence and lost the hearts of the people". What qualifications do he have to continue to stay?" Li Dewei and Wang Shijian are similar to "forced the palace" behavior. Behind the call for Su Zhenchang's resignation, it actually reflects that the political struggle and power struggle within the DPP have been superficialized, and it will definitely be intensifying afterwards.
So the DPP's crushing defeat is not just a failure in the nine-in-one election, but is facing a huge internal chaos. Just like on the court, as long as you play well, the internal unity will definitely be united, and many contradictions will be bridged and covered up. However, once it fails and is a defeat, internal contradictions will surface and intensify. Let's wait and see how the DPP will change in the future.
. For the current Kuomintang, it is a pride, because before that, the Kuomintang had been suppressed and beaten by the Democratic Progressive Party for many years. Not only did it have no power to fight back, but it was also facing a situation of fragmentation. This nine-in-one election victory is a shot of a heart-warming agent for the Kuomintang, marking the recovery of the Kuomintang's vitality and being able to compete with the DPP in 2024. Another point is that in this nine-in-one election, many young talents emerged on the Kuomintang, led by Jiang Wan'an, which is the future political capital of the Kuomintang.
At the recent "Second-Strait Hong Kong and Macao Relations Forecast" symposium, Huang Jiezheng, director of the International Department of the Kuomintang, expressed his spirit to the outside world, saying, "After this nine-in-one election, all aspects of the island will be completely renewed, including Taipei, Kaohsiung , New Taipei , Taichung , Tainan and Taoyuan. They will strengthen cross-strait communication in various fields such as economy, trade and culture, and promote peace in the Taiwan Strait. Experts from the mainland and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan can communicate from it. Consultation, committed to the real improvement of the cross-strait situation.
can be seen that after the nine-in-one election, the Kuomintang wants to make a difference in more than a year to improve cross-strait relations and improve people's livelihood on the island, in order to completely defeat the DPP in the 2024 general election. It can be foreseen that from next year, cross-strait relations will undergo obvious positive changes towards goodness and positiveness.
However, the DPP suffered a crushing defeat. The Kuomintang's senior officials expressed their views that cross-strait relations will really develop as Huang Jiezheng expected, everything is still unknown.On the one hand, it is unknown what the Kuomintang’s position and efforts in cross-strait relations are, especially in the promotion of unification. The Kuomintang has not made clear statements and further communication and preparations.
and the United States also hopes that Taiwan will "maintain the status quo", whether there is a secret convergence with some people within the Kuomintang's ideas, and thus becomes a resistance to cross-strait security unification, is also an important consideration. Recently, the Kuomintang Vice Chairman Xia Liyan said in the so-called "Foreign Relations Association" that "Taiwan must prepare for war and avoid war." This position still has the meaning of "refusing unification by force", so the Kuomintang's future actual actions need to be further looked at.
For the DPP, it is certain that it will interfere in the future political situation of Taiwan. Recently, at the first "New Era Cross-Strait Forum" meeting of the Taiwan Research Center of Xiamen University, Zhang Wensheng, deputy director of Xiamen University Taiwan Research Institute, pointed out an extremely important point, that is, "Tsai Ing-wen withdrew, but did not hand over the dominance of the party to Lai Ching-te, which means that he still has the intention to influence the 2024 general election. If Chen Chi-mai takes over as the chairman of the DPP, it means that Tsai Ing-wen still wants to manipulate the DPP, and then as the force behind it, manipulate the "nomination" of the 2024 general election. This requires special attention."
