"Throw the pot" in case of trouble, the DPP kills Taiwanese fruit farmers (Sun-Moon Talk)
Following the suspension of the import of Taiwanese pineapples, the mainland has recently suspended the import of Taiwan sugar apple and lotus mist due to quarantine reasons.
In just six months, the sale of a variety of fruits in Taiwan was affected by insect pests. Instead of reviewing and remedying the situation, the DPP authorities have tried to repeat their tricks, deliberately politicizing technical issues, and high-profile hype "mainland suppression" and vain attempt to "dump the pot". "The mainland, while ignoring the fact that the mainland has given up profit for a long period of time, thrashed and threatened to bring it to the WTO.
The DPP is busy showing off hatred. It not only wastes public money, but also hurts the interests of Taiwan's fruit farmers. Its words and deeds make people resentful.
"Every China must oppose" is the usual routine of the DPP authorities.
This time Taiwan’s fruits were also found to be pests. Due to the involvement of the mainland, the DPP authorities immediately jumped out and poured dirty water indiscriminately.
The leaders of the Taiwan region "sternly condemned" the mainland for "violating international trade norms" on Facebook, saying that they would "help Taiwan farmers get justice."
Wu Zhaoxie, the head of the foreign affairs department of the DPP authorities, slandered the mainland for "using trade as a weapon". "Chairman of the Council of Agriculture" Chen Jizhong clamored that "it is totally unacceptable" and "will file a complaint with the WTO."
What is intriguing is that when Taiwanese fruits are exposed to quality problems in other regions and even banned from being imported, the DPP authorities have a completely different face.
In June of this year, a batch of mangoes and lychees that arrived in New Zealand from Taiwan was found to have pests and diseases, and was immediately ordered to suspend entry. The DPP authorities immediately "humbly" stated that they would investigate the reasons, propose improvement measures, and expressed respect for the importing country. deal with.
Bananas sold from Taiwan to Japan were detected twice as excessive pesticides in March and April and were removed from the shelves for destruction. The DPP authorities also actively cooperated.
In addition, Taiwanese pineapples sold to Singapore have been found to be "black hearts", and pineapples sold to Australia have been exposed to poor quality. Taiwanese fruits are indeed in frequent conditions.
They were also taken down and even banned from entering. Why didn't they listen to the DPP's clamor for "political suppression", and why didn't they yell at the WTO to file a complaint?
Furthermore, it is not unusual for border quarantine to suspend imports, and Taiwan has also banned the import of apples from the United States and New Zealand.
Some Taiwanese netizens ridiculed, "There are bugs, the DPP teaches you what "double standard" is."
In addition to slandering the mainland, the DPP authorities have also performed the ridiculous drama of "self-reliance", letting their vain money go to waste.
They threatened to spend 1 billion yuan (New Taiwan dollars, the same below) to strengthen domestic and foreign sales to rescue Taiwan's custard apple and lotus mist markets.
It has strengthened its sales to "new southward" countries, burned money domestically, issued agricultural travel coupons, promoted e-commerce sales, and called for "one mind" and mobilized the people to help buy two kinds of fruits to "support farmers."
Obviously, these measures are of no avail, and Taiwanese farmers are not buying it. They urge the DPP authorities to fight for the mainland market.
While spending huge amounts of public funds to subsidize agriculture, while asking the people to pay for their own stocks, the DPP authorities do not consider solving the problem of agricultural product safety from the source, and often try to get rid of it.
They kept saying "support the peasants," but what they did was contrary to the interests of Taiwan peasants. They desperately incited cross-strait confrontation and took the opportunity to reap political dividends.
Although the DPP authorities are pushing for the "new southward policy" and claiming to free Taiwan's agricultural products from its high dependence on the mainland market, facts have repeatedly proved that the mainland is still the most important export destination for Taiwan's agricultural products.
The top three fresh fruits sold in Taiwan are pineapple, sugar apple, and lotus mist, and the proportion of imported fruits to the mainland exceeds 90%.
According to Taiwan media, the importation of three kinds of fruits to the mainland has been suspended successively, and the loss is as high as more than 3 billion yuan.
These fruits have been sold to the mainland on a large scale before. In addition to the geographical advantages, the more important thing is that the mainland will benefit from Taiwan.
The DPP authorities never mentioned this.
What is even more speechless is that before the suspension of the import of Taiwan fruits, the mainland has repeatedly notified Taiwan's fruit as unqualified and reminded to strengthen source control. The DPP authorities were reluctant to improve and asked why the mainland did not eliminate the insects on its own.
A Taiwanese media criticized that no matter where the fruit is sold, there are strict quarantine procedures. The quarantine standard is originally set by the importing place. If you want to do business, you must follow the other party's rules.
From ancient times to the present, I have never seen such a strong seller.
While the DPP authorities are manipulating the sentiment of "enmity", they shamelessly take the mainland's concessions for granted. Facing the mainland's normal trade practices, it is really embarrassing that the wicked must file a lawsuit first.
Who is playing with the "dual standard"?
Who is breaking the rules?
Who is harming the well-being of the people?
The world has its own arbitrariness!
