One month into the new semester, hundreds of students from Chengyuan High School, Dali Junior High School, Sun Yat-sen Girls' High School, National Elementary School and other schools in Taipei City developed vomiting, diarrhea and other physical discomforts after eating nutritious lunches. Chen Fangyu, associate professor of the Department of Political Science at Soochow University, said bitterly, "If such a weirdo can become the mayor of the capital, Taiwan is really a miracle of democracy."
Chen Fangyu issued an article today and pointed out that the tolerance of the citizens of the capital city of Taipei is really high. There are many problems such as lunch accidents for children, placement accidents for young children, food safety problems in department stores, traffic problems, tree felling problems, problems with residents after the building collapsed and has not been used for three years, rats, and many other problems.

Chen Fangyu bluntly said that the most troublesome thing for him is the stagnation of the entire city's development. Taipei City has spent a huge budget on cutting down trees and buying millions of parasols. "Then the mayor can't even recognize Si Beast Mountain, so of course there is no need to talk about new urban planning and development."
Netizens left messages one after another after seeing the post. Some said, "I think he was too well protected, and he knew it, so he lacked confidence. In the end, he became a perfect speech machine and couldn't adapt to anything." "Jiang Wanan is an abnormal and unqualified candidate!", " What the Tianlong people want is Jiang Wanan’s brand image, and Jiang Wanan is hiding now because he is afraid of damaging that image.” “Could it be that the blue-and-white Chinese character likes to be tortured, and they don’t want green camp officials who can be well supervised, but prefer those who are difficult to supervise and ignore problems.”
In addition, it is reported that Taipei City's "Student Health Management Information System" will suspend services starting from October 1, and the restoration time has yet to be notified. The school has temporarily replaced it with handwriting and Excel. Taipei City Councilor Jian Shupei of the Democratic Progressive Party received a complaint from the school nurse and pointed out that a large number of injured and unwell students may flood into the health center within 10 minutes of class. If manual records are used instead, it may increase the workload on the front line and make follow-up inquiries, handovers and data registration challenging.

The Baolin Tea House food poisoning case resulted in the death of six people. More than two years later, the Taipei City Government has still failed to recover millions of dollars in administrative fines. It has repeatedly emphasized review and improvement on issues such as the campus group food safety incident and the presence of rats in the stadium, but no substantive action has been taken, highlighting the governance gap of the Jiangwanan City Government in terms of crisis warning, response, and accountability.
