Changhua County Magistrate Wang Huimei is about to expire for two terms. County Councilor Yang Zixian asked during the county political question what he thought of the county magistrate's eight-year term? Wang Huimei expressed her gratitude to the people for giving her the opportunity. She just works hard to do the right thing. Her biggest feeling is that "people with power don't work hard." If "the central and local governments work together", Changhua's development will not only be like this! Yang Zixian also wished Wang Huimei that her future political abilities would be "more than that"!

Yang Zixian said that Wang Huimei first ran for county magistrate eight years ago and proposed the idea of transporting the MRT to Nanzhang. While raising political objections, it also conflicted with the inner thoughts of many grassroots professional civil servants, which in turn made grassroots civil servants feel too powerless.

Wang Huimei immediately countered the political views on bringing the MRT to Nanzhang. She emphasized the political views of her candidacy back then. She was laughed at and said: Do people in Changhua want to take the MRT with their hoes to patrol their fields and water? But in fact, the convenience of MRT in Beigao is obvious to all. Government leaders must provide vision and vision for urban governance. MRT is the best solution to facilitate the construction of public transportation.

Yang Zixian said that in the four years since he took office as a county councilor, he has seen that front-line civil servants are trembling. Shen Boyang, the Taipei mayoral candidate of the Democratic Progressive Party, has put forward the political idea of ​​"reducing the pressure on civil servants." He also wants to say something for Changhua County civil servants, that is, Changhua County is not the sixth capital, and the grade level cannot be compared with the sixth capital. However, civil servants are under great pressure, working hours are too long, often work overtime, and the turnover rate is extremely high. He hopes that the future county government can appropriately reduce the pressure on civil servants.

In the end, Yang Zixian also wished Wang Huimei that her future political power would be "more than this". Wang Huimei did not respond further to this.

Open Questions

  • What is the specific plan and timetable for the MRT to Nanzhang?
  • How will the specific measures to reduce the pressure on civil servants in Changhua County be implemented?
  • Does Wang Huimei intend to run for higher-level public office?
