3 months agoThat is what Taiwan’s minority DPP president William Lai (two sons are already US citizens) has been doing, like a chihuahua, barking at CCP whenever DPP polls drop. But do think you’re US’s deep state, not realizing you’re just a pawn? Most young voters do not fight for DPP for DPP’s previous presient Tsai has already made TW living hell with housing price/salary ratio doubling to 20, only next to Hong Kong.
Backgroung info here:
Taiwan’s housing prices have increased by 80% in the 8 years since previous DPP party’s Tsai administration. The current housing price/salary ratio is 20, only lower than that of Hong Kong (but the minimum wage is less than 1/2 of Hong Kong’s), and the vast majority of citizens cannot afford to buy a house. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDE2Pto-EX8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4UMerjkBB4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-GfrIM_zyA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coLr9mJXNPI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coLr9mJXNPI
Or search in YT “taiwan housing price for foreigners”
After 8 years of being the central government, corrupted DPP only got 40% of votes in the 2024 election (president votes more than half – 50.x% – only in 1 city out of 16, and got only 4 cities/counties mayors out of 16 in 2022 and 2018 city/county elections). DPP voters are mostly lower educated, over 65 years old ,or live in the agricultural or heavy-industral southern part of Taiwan. The opposition parties are KMT and TPP. KMT voters are mostly over-50-year-of-age mid-to-higher educated. TPP voters are mostly higher educated young people (TW has way more than enough universities), and TPP got the most votes in Taiwan’s Silicon Valley city, Hsinchu. DPP gave away TSMC’s technology to other countries and declined to buy BNT vacs in order to undermine the lives of the capitol and the adjcent city which did not vote favorably for DPP. All this farce ended when DPP’s previous President Tsai yielded to the pressure from top executives of TSMC, Foxconn and Buddhist Compassion Relief Tzu Chi Foundation (a.k.a lots of voters. Buddism is a major religion is East Asia). So judge for yourself. [Google “wikileaks Taiwan” to know now minority (40% of votes) ruling party DPP’s politicians have been using anti-China and independence (which US does not allow) as apparatus for election purposes (Taiwan’s Netanyahu?). The opposition parties are trying the pass a law to criminalize government officials making perjury before the present parliament – which have been often common practices by DPP for the past 8 years.
