[Reporter Chen Yufu/Taipei Report] After the Democratic Progressive Party was defeated in the 9-in-1 election, former UMC Chairman Cao Xingcheng issued a document today pointing out that the CCP’s recent aircraft and ship disturbances are in line with the KMT’s intimidation of “voting for the DPP and young people going to the battlefield.” , also played a great role in the election campaign.

Cao Xingcheng said frankly that it has been two weeks since the election campaign ended on November 26, and the excitement of the winners and the frustration of the losers should have subsided.

It is now possible to examine calmly what the campaign has revealed.

First of all, it must be admitted that "rejecting communism and protecting Taiwan" has not become the main axis of the campaign.

Please read on...

Cao Xingcheng believes that for the DPP, the local elections on November 26 were indeed a disastrous defeat. However, in the past half a month, we can see some good signs, showing that the DPP is still very powerful despite its defeat.

According to Cao Xingcheng's analysis, the first is that President Tsai was responsible for the defeat and immediately resigned as the party chairman. The whole party began to review the reasons for the defeat and strive for improvement; it proves that the DPP can renew and adjust itself.

The second is that Vice President Lai has stepped forward, hoping to take over as the party chairman first, and then run for the presidency.

As a result, the Democratic Progressive Party has the leader among the dragons, and it can stabilize the morale of the army and regroup.

Cao Xingcheng mentioned that after the Kuomintang's victory this time, it can be said that all the heroes have risen together. It seems that it is not easy to elect a presidential candidate with the whole party's heart.

Zhu Lilun made the most contribution in the auxiliary election, but he has always been unpopular; Hou Youyi got the most votes, but his ability to discuss ideas and make diplomatic compromises appears to be weak; apart from these two, there are no other dark horses.

According to research and judgment, Zhao Shaokang qualified?

South Korean Yu back to the pot?

It seems impossible.

Therefore, the dystocia of the candidate will become the fatal wound of the Kuomintang.

Japanese scholar Ogasawara Xinxing had accurately predicted Tsai Ing-wen's vote rate in the last presidential election, and he also predicted the result of the nine-in-one election with incomparable accuracy.

It should be quite credible to predict that the DPP will win the 2024 general election.

Cao Xingcheng said that even if the Democratic Progressive Party wins the election in 2024, the blue-green camps in Taiwan will be incompatible with each other in terms of national identity, and the long-term confrontation will not be Taiwan's blessing.

We expect that in the process of winning the next presidential election, the DPP can also put forward a strong argument to make the vast majority of voters converge on the national identity.
