Anti-bribery banners and slogans were hung on 42 garbage trucks, collection trucks, and taxis. During daily transportation and picking up passengers, the awareness of correct election style was extended to the most corners of the community.
The event was performed by students from Shuanglong Elementary School in Longtan District. The anti-bribery drama "Xiong Hao Peach Blossom Land III: Bravely Doing the Right Thing - The Influenced Choice" was adapted from the city's multilingual audio textbook. It explained the key plot of how the protagonist in the story rejects external temptations and independently makes honest choices when faced with free benefits and unfair inducements. At the same time, it connects grassroots cleaning teams and local taxi drivers, integrates people's livelihood cleanup and transportation networks into the concept of the rule of law, and extends it to the community.
Including Lu Xiangwu, chief prosecutor of the Taoyuan District Prosecutor's Office, Jiang Yanli, deputy director of the Taoyuan City Investigation Division of the Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Justice, Liao Changxin, director of the Municipal Government's Government Affairs Office, Yan Jisuo, director of the Environmental Protection Bureau, Zhang Xinfu, director of the Transportation Bureau, and Zhang Shuhao, director of the Environmental Management Division, etc. Both attended. Lu Xiangwu and Liao Changxin said that every local election is often accompanied by various electoral chaos such as vote-buying, underground gambling and false information. These illegal practices seriously erode the cornerstone of democracy, and citizens should jointly abide by the principle of not buying votes and not selling votes.
The Environmental Protection Bureau stated that in order to make the concept of anti-voting bribery penetrate into the lives of citizens, from the garbage trucks and resource recycling trucks that clean up the streets every day, to the local taxis that stop at any time, a total of 42 vehicles will respond with promotional banners and slogans.
