針對民進黨台北市長參選人沈伯洋聲稱「我不主張毒品除罪化」,國民黨文傳會主委陳以信今(7)日質疑,沈伯洋2014年文章明明把「毒品除罪化」列為B政策的「協助路線」,如今卻說自己「一直都不主張毒品除罪化」,他質問沈伯洋,到底是立場髮夾彎,還是過去文章不算數?
陳以信直言,沈伯洋2014年曾公開寫下:「大麻背後真正的問題其實是需要用合法化解決的。」但沈伯洋現在卻改口「台灣不適合大麻除罪化」。陳指出,「除罪化」與「合法化」根本是兩個不同概念,他要求沈伯洋別再問A答B,應該直球對決:「你現在到底反不反對大麻合法化?Yes or No?」

陳以信表示,沈伯洋要選的是台北市長,毒品政策更牽涉校園安全、青少年健康與城市治安。他諷刺,沈伯洋高喊「台北順起來」,但市民更有權知道他的毒品政策究竟要往哪裡走,「別到最後台北沒有順起來,反而變成『大麻順起來』!」
陳以信最後也要求其他民進黨縣市長候選人公開表態:「你們是否支持大麻合法化?」尤其新北蘇巧慧、台中何欣純、台南陳亭妃、高雄賴瑞隆等六都市長候選人,更應向選民把立場講清楚。反毒沒有地域之分,毒品政策也不能一人一套,「不是只有沈伯洋該回答,所有民進黨縣市長候選人都應該給人民一個清楚答案!」

After it was revealed that Xu Jiaqing, chairman of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Council, had used public funds to go abroad, arranged for his son to go on a business trip to Europe with special privileges, and that his husband-in-law used a private official car and other controversies, he issued a statement on the 7th to resign as chairman and requested an administrative judicial investigation, saying that he would fully cooperate and respect the results of the investigation.

Times Power Party Chairman Wang Wanyu criticized the Taipei City Health Bureau for emphasizing "investigation and handling according to law" in the press release for needle collection. He believed that this would destroy the trust relationship with drug addicts and make seekers afraid to use harm reduction services due to fear of the police. He also pointed out that the results of harm reduction policies come from the number of people who are willing to come in for help. Politics should not harm vulnerable groups for election campaigns.

Shen Rongqin, a pro-green scholar and associate professor at York University in Canada, posted on Facebook criticizing Xu Jiaqing, chairman of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Council, saying that his son was involved in a conflict of interest and pretended to be a photographer to accompany him on the trip. He believed that Xu Jiaqing should consider whether to stay or leave, and pointed out that even if he understands his needs as a mother, his behavior should not be excused.

Shen Boyang, the Taipei mayoral candidate of the Democratic Progressive Party, was rounded up by the blue camp because of his old criminal articles discussing drug harm reduction 12 years ago. Looking back at the six controversial cases in which green camp politicians were repeatedly accused on the eve of the election, including the Yuchang case, epidemic prevention procurement, Hsinchu baseball stadium, Su Zhifen case, Tsai Ing-wen’s paper and Pan Meng’an’s housing rental incident, most of the cases were concluded with no evidence, no prosecution or acquittal after judicial investigation.

Kuomintang legislator Luo Zhiqiang accused DPP Taipei mayor candidate Shen Boyang of advocating providing drugs to drug addicts in community centers. Shen Boyang clarified that his past articles only discussed drug harm reduction and had nothing to do with encouraging drug abuse, and emphasized that he did not advocate the decriminalization of drugs. Xiao Jingyan, the former spokesperson of the Kuomintang, criticized Luo Zhiqiang in the community for taking quotes out of context and spreading rumors, and questioned his contradictory logic. He believed that this behavior showed his lower limit, and called on people with different political stances to still maintain conscience and personality standards.

Chang Yu-meng, director of the Taiwan Youth Democratic Association, criticized Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan and the Health Bureau for linking harm reduction policies with penalties, intimidating drug addicts from receiving clean needles, which may collapse the harm reduction and epidemic prevention lines established in Taiwan over the past 20 years. He pointed out that in the past, the Police Department had explicitly prohibited ambushes and arrests at harm reduction strongholds, and AIDS infections have dropped significantly after the implementation of the policy.
