During the 33rd anniversary of the “June 4th Incident” yesterday, former President Ma Ying-jeou posted on Facebook, on the one hand slamming Taiwan’s step-by-step fall into “unfree democracy”, on the other hand praising the Chinese Communist Party and its leader Xi Jinping. In this regard, Executive President Su Zhenchang said bluntly today (5th) that not only will this not be accepted by the Taiwanese people, but it will also become the laughing stock of the world.
Ma Ying-jeou posted on Facebook that in October last year, Chinese leader Xi Jinping talked about “democracy” at the Central People’s Congress work conference, insisting that all power in the country belongs to the people, and to the greatest extent guarantees that the people are the masters of the country and govern the country according to law. Help to establish the right direction of the rule of law society.
Ma Ying-jeou also criticized that in the past two years, the new crown epidemic has shown the government’s lack of vaccine procurement and the disorder of the rapid screening policy, which proves that the government’s “advance deployment” is a lie. even reddened. When we shouted that the other side should treat dissidents kindly to build the core values shared by both sides, our ruling party is suppressing or even eliminating dissidents, and at the same time falling into “undemocratic democracy” and “elected dictatorship” .
Su Zhenchang responded by saying that Taiwan’s freedom and democracy are recognized by the world and are among the best in various evaluations. He saw that China has used brutal methods to suppress democracy in Hong Kong and violated human rights with various brutal methods against Xinjiang and Tibet. In terms of epidemic prevention work, it is most comparable. Taiwan uses democracy, communication, and openness, and everyone cooperates to fight the epidemic; China has brutally closed the city, and even the Chinese people do not accept it.
Su Zhenchang emphasized that some people actually go against the facts to paint the face of autocratic totalitarianism and distort themselves more. This will not only be unacceptable to the Taiwanese people, but will also become the laughing stock of the world.
In addition, the Deputy Minister of Economy of Slovakia led a delegation to visit Taiwan. Su Zhenchang said that democratic and free countries have more communication and interaction, and everyone’s unity and cooperation are in line with universal values. Taiwan and related countries try their best to have a good cycle. They also warmly welcome them and hope to further strengthen mutual cooperation.
