html On the 112th, when Taiwan leader Tsai Ing-wen attended an event in New Taipei City, New Taipei City Mayor Hou Youyi choked in person and claimed, "Every time I When asking for a budget from the Taiwan authorities, it’s like praying. Does the Tsai Ing-wen remember the promise of being humble and humble again during the election? "According to Taiwan's "China Times" report, on the 12th, Tsai Ing-wen and the transportation department? The person in charge, Lin Jialong, went to New Taipei City Banqiao District to "inspect" the second phase project of the MRT Wanda Line. New Taipei City Mayor Hou Youyi shouted to Tsai Ing-wen in the audience during his speech, saying that the Wanda Line's 55.5 billion (NT$) New Taipei City independently bears more than two-thirds of the budget. Hou Youyi said that for this line, he had begged various ministries and committees of the Ministry of Transportation many times. Every time he asked the Taiwan authorities for a budget, it was as if he was begging and begging. He was very helpless. Every time I asked for help, it was in vain. From beginning to end, I never heard the Taiwan authorities say "Hou Youyi, I support you." Hou Youyi asked directly in front of Tsai Ing-wen, "I have been to New Taipei City twice. Do the Tsai authorities still remember the 'humility, humility and humility' that they promised during the original election?"
Hou Youyi said that the Tsai authorities had already announced in the election yesterday (11th) I spent a whole day worshiping at temples in New Taipei City. There are temples to worship, but the more important thing is to do things. Hou Youyi said that he did not accompany Cai to visit the temple yesterday because as the mayor, he had more important things to do.
Hou Youyi shouted to Tsai Ing-wen, "If you are here to fight for the election, I am sorry that I cannot accompany you, but if you can see the needs of New Taipei citizens and come here to fight for construction, I will definitely support it." Hou Youyi said that New Taipei still has a long road to construction. In the future, there will be Taishan light rail and Shenkeng light rail. The feasibility study is still being reviewed by the transportation department. These require the Taiwan authorities to provide resources and assist local counties and cities in solving them, so I hope The Taiwan authorities can be practical and considerate of the New Taipei people.
Hou Youyi’s remarks made Tsai Ing-wen in the audience very embarrassed. Tsai Ing-wen later responded that she worshiped temples so that the gods could protect Taiwan and that she had always worked very hard. Although the authorities only contributed one-third of the second phase of the Wanda Line this time, this one-third was not easy to come by. Tsai Ing-wen also said that it doesn't matter that Mayor Hou did not accompany her to visit the temple. She will always try to maintain a "humble" attitude and will do her best to support local construction in the future.
Taiwanese media said that although Hou Youyi’s remarks made Tsai Ing-wen look bad, the Taiwanese people applauded them.
Netizens left messages one after another saying, "Mayor Hou, well done, we support you!"
"Mayor Hou, that's great! I only thought about the construction of New Taipei City when I was fighting for the election. This is the long-standing policy of the Democratic Progressive Party. I don’t know what the Tsai administration is praying for. Is it peace of mind?
