Font size

China News Service, November 12 (Yanxintai) Taiwanese veteran musician Luo Dayou was "full of fire" in an exclusive interview with Taiwanese media personality Tang Xianglong on the program recently. He criticized the DPP authorities for their complete change after gaining power, saying bluntly that they were "shameless". In this regard, public opinion on the island believed that Luo Dayou's speech was "inspiring" and showed the character of a cultural man.

Luo Dayou said in an exclusive interview that the DPP authorities have lowered the cultural threshold for elections, which has led to the current decline in Taiwan's cultural standards, which will eventually lead to the degeneration of national character.

He also criticized in the program that the DPP authorities have changed completely after gaining power and have become a source of fear for the people on the island. He also said that Zhuo Rongtai, the head of Taiwan's administrative department, and Lai Qingde, the leader of the DPP authorities, "worked together" and were "really shameless."

"For his (Luo Dayou) speech, I can only say four words: inspiring." According to Taiwan's "United Daily News", Jiang Wanan talked about Luo Dayou's relevant speech during an interview, believing that this was a performance that a cultural person should show his character, and said that as the ruling party, the DPP authorities should listen to public opinion.

Taiwan's retired teacher Ou Guizhi strongly agrees with the Democratic Progressive Party authorities' view of lowering the cultural threshold and bluntly said, "I feel very close to it." She said that if a cultural person has no character, he is not qualified to be called a "cultural person". She also revealed that some "cultural people" on the island only receive subsidies from the authorities, but they do things that have nothing to do with culture and use cultural packaging. "This is slandering culture."

Taiwanese media person Wang Qianqiu believes that Luo Dayou took the initiative to say these words on the show without fear of the island's box office market or being "encircled and suppressed" by the green camp, which shows "the depth of the grief and indignation in his heart."

The island's social media fan page "Engineers Look at Politics" posted an article saying that Luo Dayou's remarks criticizing the Democratic Progressive Party are reasonable and very popular. It has been a long time since we have seen a significant cultural person dare to stand up and rebuke the Democratic Progressive Party loudly. The article also mentioned that after the Democratic Progressive Party came to power, it made every effort to destroy Taiwan's education and refuse to recognize Chinese culture. The only way out is to "remove the Democratic Progressive Party". Otherwise, we will wait to see the degeneration of the nation and witness the demise of our own culture.

After the relevant program was broadcast, Luo Dayou was "denounced" by many green camp people and green camp supporters.

"Many people scolded Luo Dayou, but no one really dared to respond to Luo Dayou's sharp criticism of Taiwan's current situation." Taiwanese media person Zhang Junkai wrote in Taiwan's "China Times News Network" that the abuse of Luo Dayou today is not because he said anything wrong, but because he has the courage to speak out with a voice different from that of the Democratic Progressive Party, which makes these people feel ashamed.

Open Questions

  • Will the DPP authorities make a formal response to Luo Dayou's criticism?
