Legislators across the factions of the Democratic Progressive Party have recently voiced their views that "taxes should be paid to the people" and that economic achievements should be shared with the whole people. They suggested that the government issue cash or consumer coupons before the Chinese New Year.

Executive Yuan spokesman Luo Bingcheng said on the 26th that President Tsai will hold a national security meeting to discuss and seek consensus on the economic situation at home and abroad in the near future. If any specific plan is reached, the Executive Yuan will explain it to the public as soon as possible.

Luo Bingcheng pointed out that because the government lives within its means, coupled with successful epidemic prevention and economic growth, the central government has been able to have surplus for several consecutive years.

However, due to the impact of the epidemic and the Ukrainian-Russian War, international raw materials and energy prices have risen sharply, and the global economy will face major challenges next year.

In response to the changing situation in the coming year, Premier Su Zhenchang has instructed various ministries to formulate various post-epidemic revitalization and vulnerable care plans, and the ministries are gathering their opinions.
