Commentary: The DPP Government Designating Indigenous Languages as National Languages is a Stupid Policy — Criticizing the Reversal of Language Modernization for Political Correctness

This article criticizes the DPP government''s policy of legislating indigenous languages as national languages, calling it a stupid policy driven by political correctness and hijacking pro-independence ideology. The author points out that Taiwan has many indigenous languages (over 28 types), but their actual user population is small. Linguistically, the disappearance of languages is part of the modernization process. The author argues that these Austronesian languages are incompletely developed, have limited practicality, and lack the universality of New Zealand''s Maori language, questioning the practical significance of this policy.
