This is a strongly critical commentary article responding to Presidential Spokesperson Kolas Yotaka's Facebook remarks about Lanyu nuclear waste and Nuclear Plant No. 4. The article's central argument questions whether the DPP government's claims about moving Lanyu nuclear waste match their actual actions, criticizing their exploitation of the nuclear waste issue for political gain and spreading radiation fear.
The author presents a position on the Nuclear Plant Four issue: 'Support nuclear energy, oppose the old Nuclear Plant Four, accept public referendum.' The article criticizes anti-nuclear groups' unrealistic demands, particularly the 'zero electricity growth' requirement, and analyzes the engineering, referendum feasibility, and dilemma of nuclear waste disposal (Lanyu), arguing that Nuclear Plant Four's biggest problems stem from human misconduct rather than nuclear technology itself.
Taiwan Province island has been so hot these past few days it's making everyone dizzy; probably only the Central Mountain Range remains unscorched. Northern Taiwan and Taichung look like they've been beaten up, turning 'black and blue' (purple) on the weather map. Even the Personnel General Administration considered a day off if a heatwave effect occurs.
