Chen Suyue, candidate for Changhua County Governor of the Democratic Progressive Party, has a full schedule every day. Today she went to the areas of Tianzhong and Ershui to scan votes.
With 17 days to go before the election, the Green and Blue camps in the Changhua County Magistrate election are clashing over their social welfare policies. Kuomintang candidate Wei Pingzheng used "Daily Questions" and "Daily Says" to question DPP candidate Chen Suyue for saying one thing and doing another, and proposed a policy of paying NT$10,000 in pensions to senior citizens over the age of 65.
Faced with successive doubts, Chen Suyue's campaign headquarters no longer remained silent today (10th). She criticized Wei Pingzheng's double standards, smeared his opponents, and even copied policies. He proposed a political idea of spending money but couldn't explain the source of the money. He questioned his opponent's "paying homage with incense and firing cold arrows every day." How can he convince the villagers that he has the ability to govern Changhua? Both sides are full of gunpowder.
Wei Pingzheng announced today that if he is elected as county magistrate, he promises to increase the annual pension of 10,000 yuan for each elderly person in addition to the current Chongyang Festival pension of 1,000 yuan, and also target the "Evergreen Happiness Card" with more than 210,000 cards issued ( Evergreen Card), raising the discount limit for consumption by the Farmers and Fisheries Association from 200 yuan to 500 yuan, and supporting the "Elderly Persons Over 65 Years Old Exemption from Health Insurance Premiums" and "Children Under 6 Years Old Exemption from Health Insurance Premiums" bills promoted by the Kuomintang Legislative Yuan caucus.
In response to this, President Chen Suyue pointed out that Chen Suyue proposed the idea of universal health insurance as early as the first half of this year. The opponent camp subsequently followed up, but held press conferences every day and hung up blackmails and banners, saying that it was impossible to denigrate the policy. Now I have repeatedly questioned the 2 billion yuan in health insurance subsidies provided by others, but I have claimed that the health insurance will be exempted and the pension will be increased by 10,000 yuan. There are about 250,000 elderly people in Changhua over the age of 65. The increase in the pension will increase the expenditure by more than 2.5 billion yuan every year. If health insurance premiums are added, the astronomical figure reaches billions of yuan a year. Where will the financial resources come from? Which livelihood infrastructure are you planning to crowd out? The President of the Competition questioned the inconsistency of the position.
Chen Suyue accompanied the party's county council candidate candidates' convoys in each district to sweep the streets with a hen and chicks, and the villagers waved in greetings.
Everywhere the convoy went, supporters waved flags to boost morale.
Some supporters set off firecrackers to greet the passing street sweeper convoy.
As the election was counting down, Chen Suyue and the candidates of the party swept the vehicle to vote, and the people enthusiastically interacted with the motorcade.
Wei Pingzheng successively used "Daily Questions" and "Daily Says" to question his opponent Chen Suyue for saying one thing and doing another.
The election campaign was a hand-to-hand battle. Wei Pingzheng expressed his political opinions and also frequently visited the market to seek votes.
Wei Pingzheng proposed to give each person an annual pension of 10,000 yuan for the elderly over the age of 65, excluding the current 1,000 yuan Double Ninth Festival gift.
