According to Taiwanese media reports, former Taitung "legislator" Lai Kuncheng announced his bid for the Democratic Progressive Party's nomination for Taitung County Mayor, and former "Transportation Minister" Lin Jialong also strongly expressed his willingness to run for Taipei mayor. You Yinglong, chairman of the deep-green Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation, said today that this is tantamount to an open challenge to Tsai Ing-wen’s authority as party chairman. But the current Democratic Progressive Party is a bit like a cuckoo's nest. Power is determined by one person, and there are fewer and fewer people with individuality. The cuckoo's nest cannot accommodate people with individuality. I question "Is there spring in the cuckoo's nest?"
You Yinglong
2022 is a place in Taiwan In an election year, the social support of political parties, large and small, attracts much attention. You Yinglong said that after the Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation released its May poll report on May 24, that day he made a special analysis on "Is Deep Blue in danger of extinction?" He said that dark blue was cut in half in May, and dark green is actually not much better. It was still 13.3% last month, and now it is 8.8%. One-third has disappeared from the world. Why? In addition to the epidemic factor, green camp supporters’ dissatisfaction with the party’s primary election should also be an important reason.
You Yinglong gives two examples. On May 20, former Taitung "legislator" Lai Kuncheng held a press conference to announce his bid for the Democratic Progressive Party's nomination for Taitung County Mayor and resigned from the "Ministry of Economic Affairs" Small and Medium Enterprises Joint Counseling Fund As the chairman of the board of directors, he showed his determination to "break the boat and fight against ".
He said that Lai Kuncheng debuted very early and was a domineering figure in the world (190, referring to his height of 1.9 meters, in fact, Lai Kuncheng is only 1.6 meters). He was witty and funny. He served as a "legislator" and the mayor of Taitung, and he dominated the political arena. Ten years later, this time I made a firm decision and declared my candidacy to clarify my ambition. Friends around me have mixed feelings, but "will I really win Tsai Ing-wen's caring eyes? Everyone in the street knows it."
The other one is Lin Jialong. On June 2, the Yunlin Association in Taipei held a press conference in Taipei and publicly shouted to Tsai Ing-wen to "recommend the right people, not your own people" and supported Lin Jialong's candidacy for mayor of Taipei. .
You Yinglong said that anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that this is a show of muscles, and the movements are not small. Prior to this, Lin Jialong also mentioned "Future Imagination of Taipei Vision-12 Courses About Taipei Circle" on Facebook on May 27, expressing his strong intention to run.
Why is it that Lin Jialong still insists on taking chestnuts from the fire even though he knows that Tsai Ing-wen already has an opinion on who to recruit as mayor of Taipei? He believes that in addition to considering the epidemic factors that are unfavorable for recruiting Chen Shizhong, it also shows his soft spot for the mayor of Taipei.
He said that Lai Kuncheng and Lin Jialong are undoubtedly the most prominent elites of the Mesozoic Democratic Progressive Party. After countless nights of fighting between heaven and man, they finally made the decision to publicly fight for the nomination, but this is nothing short of an open challenge. Tsai Ing-wen’s authority.
On November 14 last year, when the DPP National Congress approved that the party chairman recruit almost all the 16 county mayors in the "six cities" in 2022 and confiscate the party's primary elections, he once asked "How dare Tsai Ing-wen dare to do so?" Destroying the political ambitions and enthusiasm of countless comrades in the party?" You Yinglong emphasized that he meant "she should not do this at all."
He lamented that from a certain perspective, the current Democratic Progressive Party is a bit like a cuckoo's nest. Power is determined by one person, and there are fewer and fewer people with personality. After all, the cuckoo's nest cannot accommodate people with personality; those who stay in the cuckoo's nest People, except for the management class (that is, the ruling class), have not had their prefrontal lobes removed, so they can only pretend to be crazy and act stupid and linger on. You Yinglong asked, "Is there spring even in the cuckoo's nest?" He also said that it takes courage to fly over the cuckoo's nest, "I have flown over, how about you?" (Editor: Fang Yanyan)
