Li Sichuan questioned the central government's deletion of the New Taipei MRT subsidy: Since it is not a cent less, why not give it now?

Li Sichuan, the New Taipei City mayoral candidate of the Kuomintang, criticized the central government's original promise to subsidize the New Taipei City MRT project of NT$5.41 billion, but it was deleted when the city government applied for it according to the progress.
