[Reporter Wang Qianhao/Taipei Report] The Executive Yuan finalized the "Central Promotion of Public Transportation Utilization Plan" yesterday, promoting Beibeijitao 1200 commuter monthly pass, unlimited use of buses, passenger transportation, MRT, Taiwan Railway and public bicycles in the living circle within 30 days Waiting for transportation, it is expected to be implemented in July at the earliest.

Unexpectedly, this policy unexpectedly triggered a blue-green war. The Democratic Progressive Party questioned that the KMT chiefs had joined forces to cut the rice tails.

In this regard, Xu Zhijie, a member of the Transportation Committee of the Legislative Yuan, said that the Kuomintang is acting like a good boy when it gets a bargain.

The Kuomintang once criticized on Facebook on November 9 last year that the 1200 policy proposed by the North-North Kitao candidate of the Democratic Progressive Party was only a policy to save the election. The chiefs of Kitao County and City fulfilled the promise of North and North Kitao Monthly Tickets, and New Taipei Mayor Hou Youyi, Taipei Mayor Jiang Wanan, Keelung Mayor Xie Guoliang, and Taoyuan Mayor Zhang Shanzheng created a convenient living environment for the people of northern Taiwan.”

In this regard, Zhang Zhihao, director of the Information Department of the Democratic Progressive Party, pointed out today that the KMT has been distorting its political views before the election, blaming "empty checks" and "where does the budget come from", and smearing good policies as election fraud. Now the good policies have been achieved However, the head of Beibei Jitao began to join hands to cut rice tails and vigorously promote it, which is outrageous.

Xu Zhijie also said in an interview that the 1200 monthly ticket is the common political opinion of the Democratic Progressive Party, and the mayor of the KMT Keelung and Taoyuan said at the time that these were not feasible, saying it was a guava ticket!

Now the DPP government has passed it quickly, and even the central and southern regions have introduced a monthly ticket plan. Please stop cheating the KMT, and act like a good boy if you get a cheap one. Admit your mistakes and affirm that the government is doing the right thing, and stop opposing it for the sake of opposing it.

DPP Legislator He Zhiwei said that during his tenure as a Taipei city councilor, he first proposed the 1280 commuter pass. Although he faced many obstacles and difficulties at the time, it was finally made possible with the efforts of everyone.

Today, the DPP promotes good policies that benefit the country and the people, but it keeps letting the DPP wear small shoes, scolding the DPP for throwing money and buying tickets with policies. Regarding these "advice" of the KMT, he was the first to propose a commuting monthly pass I am deeply sorry.

Hong Mengkai of the Kuomintang said that after he entered the Legislative Yuan in 2020, he was the first to call for the inclusion of Taiwan Railway and National Highway Passenger Transport in the Shuangbei 1280 monthly ticket. He also continued to question the Transportation Committee and held a public hearing on October 7 last year.

Now it is due to the special post-epidemic budget that it can be promoted quickly. According to the original statement of Minister of Transport Wang Guocai, the road will not be available until 2024. This is the direction supported by both blue and green. We call on the ruling party to be more open-minded and tolerant instead of blame each other.
