Lai Qingde, the president and chairman of the Democratic Progressive Party, is now the candidate for Nantou County Magistrate Wen Shizheng and has run thoroughly in Nantou. Lai Ching-te emphasized that he has "three major missions" as president, including "taking good care of Taiwan, developing the economy, and taking care of the people", safeguarding Taiwan's democracy and preventing it from being reunified, and after economic development, taking good care of the people through the welfare system and reducing the burden on the people.

Lai Ching-te said that as president, he must first take good care of Taiwan and maintain the democratic system, so everyone must select talents and talents and vote enthusiastically; secondly, develop the economy and take good care of the jobs of Taiwanese people. The president said that through the upgrading and transformation plan of small, medium and micro enterprises, high-tech industries will be used to support small, medium and micro enterprises. When developing drones, robots and other defense industries in the future, small, medium and micro enterprises should also be guided into the industrial chain to allow better development of the industry.

Next, if the economy develops well and the national tax revenue increases, the people can be taken care of. For example, the old farmer allowance will be 10,000 yuan per month in July, the national annuity will be increased to 5,000 yuan per month, and 10,000 yuan will be distributed next year. Under 18 years old will be able to receive 5,000 yuan per month starting next year. There are also free tuition for high school students and private university tuition and miscellaneous fees subsidies of 35,000 yuan per year. It is hoped that through education, knowledge and expertise will be improved, people's lives will be improved, the quality of life will be improved, and society will be more harmonious.

Wen Shizheng said that in addition to the central subsidy, he also received an additional NT$2,000 child care subsidy for those aged 0 to 6 years old in Nantou. The elder care card was increased to NT$1,800, which can be accumulated and is applicable to the Taiwan Railway, passenger transportation, taxis, registration fees, and even supermarkets and snack bars, which means he has more than 20,000 yuan to use every year.
