沈榮欽點評蔣萬安隔空辯論表現:四年市長歷練難見

Quick Look

加拿大約克大學副教授沈榮欽批評台北市長蔣萬安在無黨籍市議員徐立信質詢中的隔空辯論表現,指出其回答缺乏重點且未展現四年市長的施政熟悉度,反而被挑戰者沈伯洋的具體論述遠遠拋離,質疑其能力是否僅靠改姓光環和政二代背景。

Why It Matters

台北市長選舉正進行中,現任市長蔣萬安代表國民黨參選連任,民進黨提名沈伯洋為挑戰者。無黨籍市議員徐立信近期利用市政總質詢機會,針對近期虐兒事件分別詢問蔣萬安和沈伯洋,形成隔空辯論形式。

民進黨台北市長參選人沈伯洋表態想跟現任市長蔣萬安辯論,無黨籍市議員徐立信近日訪問沈伯洋,並透過今(11)日市政總質詢機會,問蔣萬安同樣問題,讓雙方「隔空辯論」。對此,加拿大約克大學副教授沈榮欽表示,蔣萬安的回答之差,讓人大為驚訝,完全看不出四年市長的歷練,如果不是依靠改姓光環和政二代(或政四代)的起點,能力恐怕難以達到市長的高度。

沈榮欽在臉書PO文表示,一對一選舉中,領先者通常會拒絕辯論、減少辯論場次,或者要求嚴格限制辯論形式,這是為了降低風險的理性選擇。蔣萬安身為領先者,拒絕和沈伯洋辯論十分正常,而且不僅如此,蔣萬安果然求公辦辯論中,不希望有交叉詰問的安排,其實不難理解,拒絕辯論同時也避開另一項風險:領先者可以將議題限定在熟悉的範圍內,不必面臨挑戰者開闢的新戰場而失分。蔣萬安需要的是鞏固自己的基本盤與支持者,因此對於新戰線會比較保守。

請繼續往下閱讀...

沈榮欽指出,而且施政者通常會有一些包袱,避免和挑戰者正面辯論,可以不必在自己較弱的戰場上與對手交鋒,但是這種避險策略也有其代價,那就是難以展現施政者對於市政的熟悉程度,台北市政在市民生活上幾乎無所不包,其龐大的細節,新來者很難快速掌握訣竅。例如柯文哲首次競選市長時,雖然處處表現出自己比挑戰者連勝文以及前市長郝龍斌的優越之處,但即使明顯過度自信的柯文哲,後來也承認競選時太過天真,嘴上說得天花亂墜,其實都是花拳繡腿,因為對市政不夠熟悉。他自承真的當上台北市長之後,即使十分努力,也要花費兩年才熟悉市政,前兩年他「都在亂做」,屬於付學費的階段。

沈榮欽續指,因此蔣萬安當了四年市長之後,對市政具體細節的了解程度,應該一定在挑戰者沈伯洋之上。兩人沒有正面交鋒,就難以表現出蔣萬安對市政熟悉的優勢,非沈伯洋所能及,但是台北市議員徐立信今天的質詢,卻打破了這個印象。

沈榮欽補充,徐立信是無黨籍議員,和民眾黨較親近,在這件事情上沒有明顯的藍綠色彩。他今天在台北市議會中,問蔣萬安近日不幸虐兒事件頻傳,除了事後懲罰外,還有什麼可以做的?因為他事前便將題目給了蔣萬安,也允許幕僚協助,加上又是新聞熱點,蔣萬安應該可以輕鬆而具體的回答。

沈榮欽分析,蔣萬安回答之後,徐立信竟然當場播放他拿相同問題去問沈伯洋的結果。徐立信表示,既然蔣萬安拒絕辯論,不如他藉著質詢的機會,讓兩人有「隔空辯論」的機會,嚴格來說,兩人並沒有就此議題交互詰問,並不算真正的辯論,可是結果仍大出人意料之外。蔣萬安的制式回答既缺乏重點,也顯現不出對於這個議題的理解,反而是沈伯洋侃侃而談,指出具體方向,有如雲泥之別,讓旁人竟難以分清誰才是當了四年的市長。

沈榮欽直言,蔣萬安的回答之差,讓人大為驚訝,完全看不出四年市長的歷練,如果不是依靠改姓光環和政二代(或政四代)的起點,能力恐怕難以達到市長的高度。徐立信的一場質詢,竟讓他成為指出國王沒穿衣服的小孩。

The Executive Yuan counter-signed the Unmanned Vehicle Ordinance. Zhang Dunhan used the Ohtani Shohei contract as an analogy to the annual budget instability.

The Legislative Yuan passed a blue version of the Unmanned Vehicle Industry Development Ordinance. Executive Yuan Secretary-General Zhang Dunhan said that Executive President Zhuo Yongtai had counter-signed the Ordinance, and cited Shohei Otani’s delayed payment in the 10-year US$700 million contract as an example, emphasizing that returning the unmanned vehicle budget from the special budget to the annual budget is equivalent to requiring Shohei Otani to re-sign every year, leading to instability. The Legislative Yuan needs to review the budget as scheduled to maintain national defense independence.

Shen Boyang's exclusive interview broke the news and sparked heated debate, Wu Jingyi criticized Jiang Wanan as a coward

Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang performed well after being interviewed by Wang Weizhong. The video views exceeded 500,000 in one day and topped the channel's total views. Media person Wu Jingyi pointed out that the exclusive interview highlighted three political personalities: Shen Boyang dared to break in, Wang Weizhong was willing to chat and was redefined as a media person willing to talk, while Jiang Wanan was invited many times but failed to attend the appointment and was criticized as a coward. Wu Jingyi criticized Jiang Wanan's response to the "ocean current" phenomenon as old-fashioned and boring, believing that he is still a model in the window rather than doing politics on the street.

Media person Zhan Lingyu commented on Chiang Youbai's remarks on personal finance on the social platform, pointing out that "destiny determines the size of the chair you can sit on." This sentence should be heard best by Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan, and questioned his motivations and governance abilities behind changing his surname, believing that Chiang Wanan is currently unqualified for the mayor's position.
