Taipei City Councilor Jian Shupei pointed out that many teachers and students of Jinhua Junior High School suffered from diarrhea, vomiting and other symptoms after eating a nutritious lunch containing "small rolls" on September 4. The Taipei City Education Bureau issued a document clarifying that there was no collective food poisoning in the school and angrily denounced "false accusations have been overturned." However, the comments on the post were closed. In this regard, media person Zhan Lingyu said that first it was not processed for the time being, and then the samples were thrown away. Then Jiang Wanan sent 14 words to the Education Bureau. Finally, the Education Bureau issued a press release scolding parents for spreading rumors. "After these four steps, what you see is not a food safety incident, but the Taipei City Government telling you: You cannot smash the free lunch sign. Anyone who smashes it is spreading rumors."
Zhan Lingyu said in a Facebook post, how long has it been since Taipei City’s free nutritious lunches were launched? Eighty-seven students at Chengyuan High School in Central China suffered from diarrhea, and some students in Dali High School in Central China who were served by the same manufacturer also felt unwell. These two incidents have not yet been completed, and today Jian Shupei broke another one: "Jinhua Junior High School, parents complained that on September 4th, students and teachers ate the rolls in the lunch, and several classes and tutor rooms suffered from diarrhea and vomiting." The school notified the Education Bureau. What was the Education Bureau's response? The screenshots of the parent group contain black and white words: "It will be handled passively by the school" and "Due to many special circumstances this time, it will not be handled for the time being."

Zhan Lingyu pointed out, what next? At the parent-teacher meeting on September 12, the school informed parents that the lunch samples were lost after two days. Without a sample, nothing can be tested. The purpose of keeping the sample was to take it for testing in case something happened, but something happened and the sample happened to be lost. There was no sample, and the whole case was packed up. The question the parents asked was very simple: When did the school know? On what date will the announcement be made? Was the sample dropped before or after receiving the response? Did the Health Bureau come in? So far there is no answer.
Zhan Lingyu continued to point out that when things got serious, reporters ran to ask Jiang Wanan. The mayor gave 14 words in the road traffic safety briefing: "The Education Bureau will make an explanation later." The reporter asked why the Education Bureau said it would not take action for the time being. Mayor Jiang did not respond, not even a word. Let’s look at the “explanation” from the mayor. The Education Bureau issued a press release in the afternoon: "There is no collective food poisoning in Jinhua Junior High School. The Education Bureau has refuted false accusations and has overturned." The Education Bureau of the Taipei City Government issued a press release in official document format with the title "Overturned." Is this the Education Bureau or the cyber army’s flank? The text stated that this was an "unexpected revelation", an "online rumor", "a rumor spread by someone with malicious intentions", and an "obliteration of frontline efforts in education".
Zhan Lingyu angrily criticized that parents reported that their children vomited after lunch, which turned into a rumor; the mayor's question that he couldn't answer was not dealt with for the time being, and the Education Bureau said it did not exist at all. Who took the screenshot of the group in the parent’s hands? Should the Education Bureau report that someone forged official information? Back to basics. Jiang Wanan's favorite political achievement is free nutritious lunches. The whole city is equal and everyone has a share. Zhan Lingyu's daughter went to Jinhua Junior High School before. At that time, the quality of lunches was really good. Parents paid for it themselves and monitored it themselves, and the school did not dare to be sloppy. Now that the money is funded by the city government, the budget is just like that. Everyone knows how much they can give to manufacturers for a meal. Chengyuan, Dali, and Jinhua, three schools within one month. This is not an isolated case, but the constitution of this policy. Whether a policy is successful or not depends not on how many people receive free stuff, but whether the quality of the stuff remains after it is free.
Zhan Lingyu said bluntly, "What's even worse is the response of the city government after the incident. First, they did not deal with it, and then they threw away the samples. Then Jiang Wanan complained to the Education Bureau in 14 words. Finally, the Education Bureau issued a press release scolding the parents for spreading rumors. After these four steps, what you see is not a food safety incident. It is the Taipei City Government telling you: You can't smash the free lunch sign. Anyone who smashes it is spreading rumors."
