The Kuomintang held a "Say No to Drugs, I'll Protect My Children" event today (9th). Kuomintang Chairman Cheng Lai-wen led the female representatives of the Kuomintang, who wore white clothes, tied purple ribbons, and held purple platycodon, which means "eternal love" and "firm waiting", to declare their anti-drug stance. Cheng Lai-wen criticized the Democratic Progressive Party's Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang's past assertions that "drugs and medicines are equated" and other claims, but has not changed his views yet. Instead, he has "hard-nosed, passed the blame, and blurred the focus." She emphasized, “The red line in the fight against drugs must not be blurred and we must not give in.”

Zheng Liwen said that tomorrow is the National Day of the Republic of China. The reason why a country can be strong and sustainable is because it has a healthy, future and hopeful next generation. If we are timid, regressive, and vague on the anti-drug front, the entire next generation will fall into the abyss and be unable to extricate themselves. This is an issue that cannot be ignored. Everyone should stand up bravely, loudly declare war on drugs and say no to drugs.

Zheng Liwen said that the female politicians of the Kuomintang stood on the stage today to express clearly to the community, to the whole people, and to the next generation "the anti-drug stance that does not flicker, does not give in, and cannot be discounted" and "get drugs out of the school! Get drugs out of the community." A drug may ruin a person's life, and drug driving may ruin an entire family. If there is a drug addict in the family, the family will face many difficulties and challenges.

Kuomintang legislator Li Yanxiu pointed out that the current drug recidivism rate reaches 35%, which highlights that the urine testing rate of administrative units is too low and is the responsibility of the central government. Kuomintang legislator Chen Yuzhen said that a few days ago, underage teenagers stabbed each other with machetes in Kinmen. After learning that the children were taking drugs, and adults were using drugs to control them, she could not imagine that in the future, people would provide drugs and administer drugs at the community activity center, and led the scene to shout "anti-drugs, zero tolerance."

KMT legislator Chen Jinghui said that in the past two or three years, KMT legislators have been most concerned about whether the penalties for school e-cigarettes, zombie cigarette cartridges and drug-driving will be increased. During this session, she serves as the convener of the Health and Environmental Committee and will conduct a report on the drug prevention project next Monday. She called on everyone to be a strong backing for the KMT legislators and support all candidates who are determined to fight against drugs.

At the end of the event, Cheng Lai-man, female representatives, and supporters raised their palms forward, saying "no" to drugs together, and shouted the slogan "Tie a purple ribbon to protect the next generation" in unison, calling on all sectors of society to face the dangers of drugs, and jointly protect children, campus and community safety.
