The Nantou City Office event was hosted by the mayor’s wife? Shen Suzheng questioned the private use of public weapons and Zhang Jiazhe responded

In response to Shen Suzheng, the Nantou mayoral candidate of the Democratic Progressive Party, she held a press conference today (10th) with DPP spokesperson Lin Chuyin. They questioned the frequent occurrence of activities in the municipal office that the mayor's wife was "sponsored" and the municipal office was "co-organized". Mayor Zhang Jiazhe, who is seeking re-election, asked to make it clear whether these activities are funded by public funds or private funds? In response to this, Zhang Jiazhe pointed out that because the office's administrative business has established rights and responsibilities and budget regulations, his wife has always been very concerned about public affairs such as education, so she will spend money and efforts to promote relevant lectures.

Shen Suzheng not only questioned the city government being reduced to the co-organizer of the mayor's wife, but also criticized the Nangang Industrial Zone Smart Logistics Park, Maoluo River waterfront leisure facilities, parent-child integration park, additional public childcare centers, the establishment of a nanny matchmaking platform proposed by Zhang Jiazhe four years ago, as well as the extension of the MRT Orange Line to Nantou, the conversion of the old parliament into a department store, and the establishment of an animal protection and care park.

Zhang Jiazhe said that the administrative business of the office has established rights, responsibilities and budget regulations. If you want to invite nationally renowned or professional lecturers to give lectures, you often need to combine corporate or private resources to facilitate it. Since his wife has her own job and income, she has always been concerned about education. She hopes that children, parents and citizens in Nantou will have the opportunity to have access to better learning resources, so she contributes money and efforts to promote lecture activities.

Zhang Jiazhe emphasized that as the mayor, he cherishes the willingness of the private sector to invest and looks forward to more private resources to support educational activities. As a husband, he is also grateful to his wife for her willingness to devote her time and resources to allow more good educational activities to come to Nantou.

As for Shen Suzheng's criticism of the large delay in voting for political opinions four years ago, Zhang Jiazhe said that in fact some political opinions have been completed and launched, and some are being promoted one after another.
