Spend 85 billion to build the mayor’s office in the 205 Arsenal? Ke Zhien: If it is built, it will be for all civil servants

Kuomintang Kaohsiung mayoral candidate Ke Zhien advocated that the Kaohsiung city government and parliament could be relocated to the 205 Arsenal. Mayor Chen Chimai questioned that he wanted to build the mayor's office before he was elected, and the land and buildings were estimated to be about 85 billion yuan, which is more than his 6-year debt reduction of 45.5 billion yuan. Ke Zhien now clarified that he did not say that 85 billion yuan would be spent. If it was really built, it would be for all civil servants.

Ke Zhien said that she didn’t know how Mayor Chen calculated that if the 205 Arsenal was moved to the city hall, it would cost 85 billion yuan. This is not what she said. Please don’t put it in her mouth.

She emphasized that she just thinks that the 205 Arsenal is a treasure land, and hopes that it can be planned into a political, economic and trade park in the future, even beyond our Xinyi District in Taipei. I remember that a city councilor seemed to propose it last year, and Mayor Chen Chimai thought it was a creative idea at the time.

Ke Zhien pointed out that to be honest, if it is built in the future, it will not be used by the mayor. Mayor Chen specifically said that the 85 billion seems to be built for his own office. She feels that Mayor Chen should be very clear that the city government is not your own office. It is to provide civil servants with an excellent office environment, a place where citizens can negotiate business and serve everyone.

Ke Zhien spoke earnestly to Chen Qimai. Mayor Chen has an approval rate of more than 70%, so there is no need to jump directly into the election campaign, because if Commissioner Lai Ruilong cannot be elected, it is really not your fault, Mayor Chen Qimai, so don't take the blue and green support for you in the past, because the election will slowly drain his energy, which is not a good thing for the mayor.
