In response to netizens' accusations that rice noodle promotional items are worth NT$70, Taoyuan City District 1 (Taoyuan District) city council candidate Ji Guangyang counterattacked by showing off a contract with a unit price of NT$23 today. He pointed out that he laid the facts out in the sun and made them clear in black and white. He did not allow interested parties to continue to confuse right and wrong, and attempted to influence the election results through false information, public opinion manipulation, and malicious reports. He deliberately harmed candidates and trampled on the fairness of democratic elections.

A netizen posted on the social platform Threads yesterday (10th) that a rice noodle promotional product with Ji Guangyang's portrait and serial number was sold at a hypermarket for 70 yuan per pack, and questioned him: "Isn't it too expensive for you to give to voters? After all, your property declaration is less than mine!" The netizen later posted that she had reported it and would file a petition with the Taoyuan District Prosecutor's Office.

Tong Guangyang issued a "solemn statement to refute the slander" and pointed out that many candidates in Taoyuan have distributed election materials such as rice noodles, winter noodles, and egg noodles this year. Even the Democratic Progressive Party Zheng Wencan and He Zhiwei jointly launched related materials with Tsai Ing-wen. In the past six months, the Internet army and a group of blue birds have been overwhelmingly smearing, attacking, insinuating and spreading rumors. They have only one purpose, "It is to prevent me from being elected and to make the Blue Army lose one seat."

Tong Guangyang said that a previous Mid-Autumn Festival party in which he did not attend and did not give out lottery prizes was maliciously reported as being suspected of bribery. Assisting the community to apply for garbage trucks should be a service achievement, but was twisted into evidence of bribery. The malicious prosecution has caused unnecessary burdens on the prosecutorial agencies, and has also wasted judicial resources and social costs. It is disgusting to use justice as a tool for electoral struggles! "This is a very malicious attempt to make someone unelectable, and I will sue him in accordance with the law."
