Former Transport Minister Ye Kuang Comments on President Tsai Ing-wen's First Year: Analyzing the Profound Contradictions in Governance

On the eve of President Tsai Ing-wen's first anniversary, former Transport Minister Ye Kuang commented on her governance. He identified the greatest difference between Tsai and her predecessor Ma Ying-jeou: Ma treated cross-strait relations as 'internal contradictions,' while Tsai treats domestic 'internal contradictions' as 'antagonistic contradictions,' leading to marginalization of dissidents, social instability, talent drain, and business hesitation about investment.
