[Instant News/Comprehensive Report] The 2022 Nine-in-One Election was won by the Kuomintang, and most county and city mayors were won by the blue camp.

Japan's Sankei Shimbun's Taipei Branch Director Yaba Akio listed several issues in a Facebook PO post, and said that if the rulers do not solve them in time, it will be difficult to vote in 2024, because if there are more and more people who hate the DPP , it may be exploited by China.

Akio Yabata wrote in a PO post that Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council of China, immediately responded to the Taiwan election by "answering reporters' questions" in the middle of the night. Mainstream public opinion that is stable and wants to live a good life.”

Zhu Fenglian also said: "We will continue to unite with Taiwan compatriots and jointly promote the peaceful development of cross-strait relations. We firmly oppose the separatist forces for Taiwan independence and the interference of external forces."

Yaba Akio pointed out that the result of this election is undoubtedly a great gift for Xi Jinping who has just concluded the 20th National Congress.

He may think that Taiwan's "people's support" is now available, and in the future he may intensify civil attacks and intimidation against Taiwan.

Yaba Akio believes that in the eyes of foreign governments, the result of yesterday's vote is that Taiwan's public opinion "chosen the pro-China faction."

In the future, when they contribute manpower and material resources to help Taiwan and defend Taiwan against China, they may be more hesitant.

Yaba Akio revealed that based on his long-term observation of Taiwanese society, he does not think that Taiwanese voters were frightened by China's military exercises or gave up fighting against China to protect Taiwan.

Those who voted for the opposition party were not actually supporting the opposition party, but simply because they did not like the DPP.

Yaba Akio said frankly that some people say that there are now two political parties in Taiwan.

One is the DPP, and the other is "hate the DPP."

The DPP has made many mistakes in the past few years since it was in power.

In this election, although most of the DPP's basic votes were mobilized.

However, many young people who are considered to support the DPP did not come out to vote.

Every time before the election, the candidates of the Democratic Progressive Party will desperately play the youth card, visit gay bars, play rock music and so on.

Yaba Akio said bluntly, but as soon as the election was over, the DPP ignored the appeals of young people.

There is no determination to solve problems such as high housing prices and low wages.

Many young people feel cheated.

Yaban Akio said that the same is true for the issue of supporting Hong Kong.

Only before the election will Hong Kong be used to speak out.

As far as he knows, the post-election support for those in need in Hong Kong is still pitiful.

There is also the issue of judicial reform, which is what the public is most looking forward to, but basically it is still standing still.

Akio Yata explained that Tsai Ing-wen has not held a press conference for several years. Even when China launched missiles in the Taiwan Strait, which aroused worldwide concern, she did not come out to face reporters' questions.

As a foreign media person who very much wants to convey the "voice representing Taiwan" to readers, he feels that this is a very regrettable thing.

Akio Yata pointed out that any government has problems of one kind or another.

There are many reasons for the failure of the ruling party in this election.

Taiwan is facing the world's most powerful and largest cyber army group from China. It is also one of the main reasons for sending a lot of fake news to Taiwan every day, infiltrating and attacking the government, confusing black and white, and brainwashing the public.

Yaba Akio believes that if the above problems are not resolved in time, it will be difficult to choose 2024.

Because if there are more and more people who hate the DPP, they may be exploited by China.

In Taiwan, where there is no loyal and sound opposition party, if the DPP makes a mistake, all Taiwanese may have to pay for it.

It's a disturbing thing.
