[Global Times Special Correspondent Chen Lifei] After the Democratic Progressive Party's disastrous defeat in the "nine-in-one" election, the society on the island demanded that it review and reflect.

On December 4, Tsai Ing-wen convened the first high-level meeting after the election, and confirmed that the personnel reorganization will be carried out after the end of the "Legislative Yuan" session in January next year.

Public opinion in Taiwan directly pointed out that this so-called "review" is the faction of the Green Camp faction sitting on the ground and sharing the spoils to grab positions for the 2024 election.

Reorganization planned for early next year

  According to Taiwan's "China Times" report on the 5th, on the afternoon of the 4th, Tsai Ing-wen invited his deputy Lai Qingde, the "Executive Premier" Su Zhenchang, the "National Security Council Secretary-General" Gu Lixiong, the DPP "Legislative Yuan" party group convener Ke Jianming and the mayor of Kaohsiung. Chen Qimai and others held the first high-level meeting after the defeat. The meeting lasted about 2 hours and 30 minutes.

Regarding the rumble of gunfire from all walks of life and the DPP, Tsai Ing-wen said, "This is a time for deep reflection. It is better to criticize each other than to review together."

The meeting initially reached a four-point consensus. Regarding the ruling team, Tsai Ing-wen requested to strengthen policy actions and take care of the people. The next policy focus will be to strengthen assistance to affected industries in the post-epidemic period, curb high housing prices, etc., and continue to reduce the impact of global inflation. .

Secondly, the opposition party has gained power in most counties and cities, and the authorities must be humble and face the heads of counties and cities that have new public opinion.

Regarding the relationship between the ruling and opposition parties, it is hoped that the confrontation will be reduced through negotiation.

In response to the people's refusal to pay for the "anti-China protection Taiwan card" in the "nine-in-one" election, Tsai Ing-wen claimed that the determination to ensure Taiwan's security and interests and safeguard security "should not be shaken by the election results."

The "China Times" stated that Taiwanese people are worried about the possibility of military conflicts in the Taiwan Strait. Participants all believed that "no one wants war... This should also be the goal of Taiwan's efforts regardless of the government and the opposition."

  As for the issue of administrative department reorganization that is of concern to the outside world, it was decided at the meeting that a comprehensive review of the personnel layout will be made after the end of the "Legislative Yuan" session.

As for the extent of the reorganization, "it will not be just a small reorganization."

Luo Zhizheng, secretary-general of the DPP "Legislative Yuan" party group, also said on the 5th that the "Legislative Yuan" is currently undergoing a budget review, and the reorganization will produce greater variables.

Many people were called out

  As soon as the news of the reorganization of the administrative department came out, the spokesperson of the "Executive Yuan" confirmed on the 5th that the "Minister of the Interior" Xu Guoyong proposed to Su Zhenchang to resign due to personal health reasons, but Su hopes that he can continue to work with the administrative team and give condolences.

Lianhe News said on the 5th that Xu Guoyong resigned due to health factors such as asthma and spinal rehabilitation.

It was reported last week that he had packed his personal belongings in the office and shipped them back to his residence.

China Times reported that, in addition to health factors, Tsai Ing-wen held a high-level meeting on the 4th to determine the reorganization, which was also the time for Xu Guoyong to resign.

In the past two years, there have been continuous shootings on the island, the flood of "black money", and the corruption of law and order. Xu Guoyong has been criticized, and calls for his resignation have continued.

  The so-called "New Three Treasures of the Executive Yuan" is now only the "Chairman of the Council of Agriculture" Chen Jizhong.

The "New Three Treasures" include Chen Shizhong, Xu Guoyong, and Chen Jizhong, the former "Minister of Health and Welfare" who resigned due to running for the mayor of Taipei.

On the 5th, many reporters asked about Chen Jizhong's whereabouts.

He responded that if he did not make any contribution as the "Chairman of the Council of Agriculture", he would not want to stay in this position.

Recently, Chen Jizhong has been devastated by the unfulfilled policy of "eating grouper in every class" and the shortage of eggs.

In addition, former Hsinchu mayor Lin Zhijian and Taoyuan mayor Zheng Wencan, under the guidance of Taiwan's "National Security Bureau" Chen Mingtong, were both found to have plagiarized papers by National Taiwan University, and were strongly urged to resign by public opinion.

On the 5th, the Kuomintang party group held a press conference, strictly demanding that Chen Mingtong must carefully consider the advances and retreats of what he knew, and that Tsai Ing-wen should not condone the "smelly smell" of the administrative department.

  Even among pan-green supporters, 49.5 percent think the executive branch should be reshuffled, according to a recent poll by the pro-green Formosa e-Newsletter.

The officials most dissatisfied with the public are Xu Guoyong, Chen Jizhong, "Minister of Economy" Wang Meihua, "Chairman of the Communications and Communications Committee (NCC)" Chen Yaoxiang, and "Minister of Health and Welfare" Xue Ruiyuan.

According to Taiwan's "Central News Agency" report on the 5th, the Kuomintang "legislator" Chen Yixin said on the same day that he recently visited the United States and heard rumors that "Minister of Foreign Affairs" Wu Zhaoxie will exchange positions with the representative to the United States Xiao Meiqin.

"Legislative member" Lai Shibao said that the authorities should be reorganized, but if it's just "a strong wind blows their seats, it's old skin and old thinking, so don't expect any change in governance."

He criticized Tsai Ing-wen's claim to be empathetic and humble with the people at the high-level meeting, which are all nonsense, "Why don't you talk about the personal ills that the common people can understand? For example, the DPP condones black money, public security is corrupt, and the flanking cyber army is rampant. Wait, doesn’t the Tsai government know that these are long-term public grievances?”

 The undercurrent of the green camp is surging

  The island is generally not optimistic about the reorganization.

You Yinglong, chairman of the "Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation" who has quit the Democratic Progressive Party, called on the Tsai Ing-wen authorities on the 5th to respond to the people in a timely manner and not delay the reorganization until mid-January next year. reduce".

Blue camp "legislators" sarcastically said on the 5th that the public used 5G speeds to tell the authorities "we are not satisfied with you", but the authorities responded to public opinion with "dial-up access", "It's been a week, and the so-called post-election review is still going around circle".

Scholar Zhang Jing wrote on the 5th that the high-level meeting chaired by Tsai Ing-wen exposed the ugliness of the green camp in power. The fate of ducks".

  The reorganization is also considered an opportunity for the various factions of the Green Camp to share the spoils.

"United Daily News" said on the 5th that Tsai Ing-wen held a high-level meeting, and Taoyuan Mayor Zheng Wencan, who had just had his degree revoked by National Taiwan University, did not attend. The arrangement was quite delicate.

After the reorganization was confirmed, some faction leaders advocated a comprehensive reorganization to save the image of the DPP; some factions also began to think about what to do if Su Zhenchang was still in charge of the "Executive Yuan" after the reorganization.

The article said that after the defeat of the British faction, it became the target of public criticism, and the internal anxiety of the Soviet faction was also spreading.
