Secretary-General of the Executive Yuan Zhang Dunhan said that last year, Taiwan's economic growth rate ranked first among the four Asian tigers. This year's economic growth is expected to exceed 11%, setting a new high in 39 years. The central government's total budget has doubled from 1.9 trillion to 2.7 trillion next year. Taiwan's national strength has doubled. The government is spreading cash without borrowing. This is the government's ability to do things and save money to return to everyone.

Zhang Dunhan said that African swine fever and the Sibutero incident both occurred in Taichung, and neither the garbage mountain nor the MRT has even built a centimeter. Taichung now needs a good mayor who cares for Taichung. Taichung cannot stand still and is still "starting" after 8 years. He calls on everyone to support He Xinchun.

Talents in the sea line found that "it's so much short of a mayor." The city government didn't want to do things and only packaged the sea line every day. The sea line was delayed day by day, and it has been unable to make progress.

Cai Qichang said that he supports He Xinchun because he sees opportunities for change and we lack a mayor with action. He calls on everyone to let He Xinchun, who has long stood with the grassroots, be our mayor.

He Xinchun said that as a daughter-in-law from overseas, she was very moved when she saw the crowd at the scene, "The wind is blowing in Taichung"! This time we don’t have to wait any longer. Let the local and central governments work together on November 28 to build the sea line. The construction of Taichung and the sea line cannot wait any longer. The sea line needs to be changed and progressed. The railway double-track elevated line, the MRT Blue Line, the Orange Line and the Shanhai Loop Line, The current city government is not in charge of the sightseeing railway, leaving it to He Xinchun. He Xinchun is ready, and reiterated that when she is mayor, the elderly health insurance subsidy will definitely continue, and the care card for the elderly will be fully used. In the future, the municipal government will use the pattern of the capital to make Taichung a big attack.
