Tsai Ing-wen: 'By 2025, our ideal of a nuclear-free homeland means we will break away from nuclear power and abandon outdated, cumbersome energy infrastructure. We already have a comprehensive solution and have calculated everything. Even as electricity demand continues to increase, Taiwan's future will absolutely not face a power shortage crisis.'
This article strongly questions and criticizes several policies and events during President Tsai Ing-wen's five years in office, including energy policy, the New Southbound Policy, returning Taiwanese businesses and real estate, Forward-looking Infrastructure, international status, ractopamine pork imports, lowering the voting age, and concerns about press freedom and judicial neutrality.
After Typhoon Nesat damaged a transmission tower at the Hoping Power Plant, causing a power crisis, the government immediately ordered public offices to restrict electricity. The author uses this to severely criticize the DPP government for breaking campaign promises like the 'Nuclear-free Homeland' and ignoring engineering expertise. Specifically targeting the policy of restricting air conditioning in public offices, the author labels it a stupid, feel-good publicity stunt with minimal actual energy-saving benefits that endangers health, while slamming the government's arrogance.
