Taiwan People's Party Chairman and Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je recently proposed to build the "Jinxia Bridge" and said it was an extension of the small three links, which caused heated discussions, including the general resonance and recognition of all sectors of society, as well as the criticism and rebuttal of the Taiwan ruling authorities and the green camp. Obviously, under the current political ecology and cross-strait relations atmosphere, the Jinsha Bridge is difficult to achieve, but the future is an inevitable direction.
Hong Kong China Review Network published a quick comment today, pointing out that from various recent discussions, we can learn that the construction of the Jinsha Bridge is the voice of Kinmen people in the past 20 or 30 years, and has received the support of Kinmen people and politicians of different parties in Kinmen, including the political views of some DPP politicians during the election. As Chen Cangjiang, a former member of Kinmen County who has withdrawn from the Democratic Progressive Party, said, more than 80% of Kinmen people support the construction of the Jinsha Bridge. If the polls are to be one-sided, this is a cross-party consensus.
The construction of the Jinsha Bridge was not Ko Wen-je’s creativity or political opinion, but when he visited Kinmen, he heard the people’s voice, expressed his agreement and proposed the proposal to build the Jinsha Bridge, which reflected Ko Wen-je’s pragmatism and courage, as well as his association with his ability to handle cross-strait affairs. In the atmosphere of the DPP authorities' "anti-China and anti-China" and the Kuomintang's indifference in the face of cross-strait relations, Ko Wen-je boldly raised this issue and received a lot of support.
Quick Comment stated that the construction of the Jinxia Bridge is neither a question of whether there is public opinion support nor a question of whether there is technology or funding. It has nothing to do with the so-called "national security". It is completely a political issue, including ideological and non-ideological issues.
Although the current situation of cross-strait relations is severe and future development is full of variables, there is no room for rational discussion on the construction of the Jinsha Bridge. However, we believe that cross-strait relations will not continue to be stalemate. The integration and development of cross-straits is the general trend and the will of the people. It is only a matter of time before the construction of the Jinsha Bridge is a matter of time.
According to a previous report by Taiwan's "China Times News Network", Ko Wen-je put forward the proposal to build the Jinsha Bridge on the 18th, which aroused heated discussions from all walks of life. Some people said that this was Ke's strategy to look at the 2024 Taiwan leader's position. Chinese Kuomintang Taipei City Councilman You Shuhui revealed that Zhou Te Ke proudly told her that the political views were actually what Kinmen County Mayor Yang Zhenzhen told him, and he just said it casually. It turned out that the four words that dropped a shocking bomb to the political arena were Ke's unintentional insertion, which caused everyone to exclaim.
You Shuhui admitted on the political commentary program on the 23rd that the Jinxia Bridge was actually the political opinion of Chen Cangjiang, the candidate for Kinmen County Mayor, nominated by the Democratic Progressive Party in 2015, when Chen listed it as a common political opinion with Tsai Ing-wen at that time. You questioned, no matter what, this is the political opinion raised by the DPP itself. How can we come out and scold it now? Is the person who raised the political opinion again? (Xue Yang/Edited)
