🚢 Legislator Exposures: Friendship Goodwill Fleet’s Highly Classified Mission
DPP Legislator Wang Ting-yu publicly exposed: The Republic of China’s Friendship Goodwill Fleet’s additional 20-plus day return route from Palau actually had highly classified missions, conducting multi-directional military diplomatic activities with other nations’ naval vessels.
🗣️ Wu Sihwai Severely Criticizes: Immoral, Damaging National Security
In response to Wang Ting-yu’s remarks, retired general and KMT legislator Wu Sihwai severely criticized Wang Ting-yu’s action as immoral. If there truly were contact between our military vessels and other countries’ forces at sea, a legislator’s exposure would harm that country and damage the Republic of China’s national security and cross-strait relations.
Wu Sihwai said he is not a legislator of the ruling party and doesn’t have these government insiders’ exclusive information, so he won’t comment, but he believes matters affecting national security should not be disclosed by individual legislators.
Wu Sihwai said concerns regarding national security mean the Defense Ministry must clarify by noon today at the latest—yes or no, no beating around the bush. Even if true, they can acknowledge it, explain details while protecting classified information on national security.
Net Commentary: There are precedents of politicians overdoing stunts on military issues. In 1996 during the Taiwan Strait Crisis, Lee Teng-hui publicly disclosed that mainland China’s missiles at Taiwan were duds to win the ROC presidential election, resulting in many excellent Taiwan-born spies being killed.
