At present, the "nine-in-one" election in Taiwan has entered the countdown, and the blue, green and white camps are working hard to build momentum to attract votes. According to the latest poll, the Kuomintang advocates cross-strait peace and can basically conclude that it will win 16 of the 22 counties and cities. In the county and city mayor election four years ago, the Kuomintang achieved an unprecedented victory, winning 16 seats, many of which were to be re-elected this year. The Kuomintang itself evaluated that it is stable in New Taipei , Taichung , Hsinchu , Chiayi City, Changhua, Nantou, Yunlin, Hualien, Taichung, Taitung, Kinmen and Mazu and other counties and cities.
DPP has an advantage in only four counties and cities among the 22 counties and cities, namely Tainan, Kaohsiung , Chiayi County, and Pingtung. However, the DPP has been in Pingtung for more than 20 years, and every time the vote is issued, the green camp is leading. Voters seem to be aesthetically fatigued, and some people have the idea of "changing people and watching". Some Taiwanese media commented that in detail, the six years since Tsai Ing-wen's administration, prices on the island have soared, the social security network is getting bigger and bigger, the criminal forces are rampant, the DPP is arbitrary and autocratic, and the power outages are all blamed on small animals, and even use water troops to attack the opposition party. Recently, Tsai Ing-wen personally came out to canvass the vote, saying that the people support the DPP in 2020 and would also give the DPP candidate a chance in 2022. But some netizens retorted that "giving the DPP a chance is to be cruel to itself."
At the beginning, the supporters of the DPP were as enthusiastic as they were, now their opposition to the DPP was as fierce as they were. The reason is very simple. In order to continue political life and save the precarious election situation, the DPP authorities have been frantically advocating "anti-China and Taiwan" to incite cross-strait confrontation and confrontation, and cross-strait economic and trade exchanges have been severely impacted and damaged. A Taiwanese media survey found that farmers in Tainan and Kaohsiung, who once supported the DPP, complained a lot because the agricultural products they produced could not be sold to the mainland, while housing prices were unattainable. These were all harmful to the DPP. Some people even complained that "what makes sea level rise is not the global climate warming , but the tears and sweat of Taiwanese fishermen." It can be seen from this that the people of Taiwan are so difficult that the people on the island have now discovered that they have been deceived by the DPP.
In the past, the DPP used the "anti-China and Taiwan" card to declare war without any disadvantage, but now it has failed, and even caused public grievances on Taiwan. For the people of Taiwan, social stability and wealthy life are more important than any ideological . However, the DPP stubbornly adheres to the concept of "Taiwan independence", damaging cross-strait exchanges and exchanges, ignoring the difficulties of people's livelihood, and using limited economic resources to military purchases and "financial aid diplomacy", which will naturally drag down the development of the island's economy and people's livelihood. In the end, all voters' reactions to the DPP were shown in the "nine-in-one" election.
It is worth mentioning that the Kuomintang also shouted the verb in the "nine-in-one" election - "If you vote for the Democratic Progressive Party, young people will go to the battlefield; if you vote for the Kuomintang, there will be no battlefield between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait." To be fair, although the Kuomintang has different political philosophies from the mainland, it has always adhered to the "1992 Consensus ", recognized that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait belong to one China, and promised to firmly oppose "Taiwan independence". The DPP refused to recognize and accept the "1992 Consensus", and continued to advance the process of "refusing to unify and seek independence", and even colluded with external forces to provoke, and continued to collide with the bottom line of the "one-China principle". Peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait region have been severely impacted and damaged. The DPP disobeys the mainstream public opinion on the island and may be backfired by public opinion.
Ma Ying-jeou's core think tank Zhao Chunshan said that the mainland has made it clear that it will do its best to strive for the broad prospect of "peaceful reunification", but it will never promise to give up the use of force and retain all measures. The option to target external forces interference and a very small number of "Taiwan independence" elements and their separatist activities, rather than targeting Taiwan compatriots. This means that promoting the peaceful development of cross-strait relations and resolving the Taiwan issue through political means is still a priority option for the mainland. However, as the DPP continues to promote the political proposition of "Taiwan independence", the situation on both sides of the Taiwan Strait will become increasingly severe. Therefore, if the DPP is a responsible party, it should restart cross-strait dialogue as soon as possible.
Zhao Chunshan believes that in the past, the Kuomintang advocated maintaining the cross-strait status quo of "not unification, not alone, not martial", but now it is impossible. The Taiwan authorities have to decide whether to talk or not, how to talk? Even if the Kuomintang wins the "nine-in-one" or even the "general election" on the island in 2024, it cannot return to the past "ununification" situation. Former Kuomintang Chairman Ma Ying-jeou has repeatedly called on Tsai Ing-wen to restart cross-strait dialogue and "avoid war and peace." But the DPP authorities defeated a slogan and criticized the Kuomintang for shouting slogans. Obviously, the slogan "Personal votes for the Democratic Progressive Party, young people will go to the battlefield; votes for the Kuomintang, and there will be no battlefield on both sides of the Taiwan Strait" hit the DPP's life gate and fatal point.
Comprehensive analysis believes that the "nine-in-one" election not only concerns the rise and fall of the DPP and the Kuomintang, but will also inevitably affect the layout of the "general election" on the island in 2024. However, no matter what political forces come to power to govern, they cannot change the historical and legal facts that both sides of the Taiwan Strait belong to one China, nor can they change the historical trend that the two sides will inevitably be unified, and must be unified. At present, we are closer to the goal of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation than at any time in history, and are more confident and more capable of achieving this goal than at any time in history. China's rise and the reunification of the motherland are like the Yangtze River flowing eastward every day, and no force can stop it!
