Why It Matters
Zhang Boyang pointed out that when Chiang Wanan was elected as a legislator in 2016, his constituency was Zhongshan and North Songshan, but he did not raise the issue of relocating Songshan Airport at that time; he also did not mention it when he ran for mayor of Taipei in 2022. He only proposed the political idea of relocating Songshan Airport and building a Taipei AI park four years after he became mayor, when the election was critical.
Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan proposed the political idea of relocating Songshan Airport to build Taipei AI Park yesterday (9th). In response, non-party Kaohsiung City Councilor Zhang Boyang pointed out today (10th) that Chiang Wanan did not mention it when he was elected as a legislator in 2016, nor when he was elected mayor in 2022. He only mentioned it after 4 years as mayor. Now that the election situation is critical, "Treat Songshan Airport as a sand winter to reduce harm!"
Zhang Boyang said that the legislative constituencies of Songshan Airport are Zhongshan and Beisongshan, which is the constituency where Jiang Wanan was elected in 2016. But he didn’t mention it when he was a legislator in 2016, and he didn’t mention it when he was elected mayor in 2022. He didn’t mention it until he was mayor for four years. Moreover, Yao Wenzhi had already proposed this idea during his campaign eight years ago, and Jiang Wanan did not adopt it after he was elected mayor.

Zhang Boyang criticized that Taipei's municipal affairs are in crisis one after another, and the affected citizens are waiting for Jiang Wanan, and the relocation of Songshan Airport is not a top priority. It is only now that the election situation is critical that Jiang Wanan regards Songshan Airport as a place to reduce damage.
He said that in Kaohsiung, after the central government came to power in 2016, former mayor Chen Ju pushed for the closure of the CNPC Wuqing plant. Only then did TSMC inquire, and Chen Qimai accelerated the renovation after taking office. Now the TSMC factory has started production, which shows Chen Ju's vision and Chen Qimai's efficiency.
Zhang Boyang said that Jiang Wanan had been mayor for four years, and it was not until the last two months that he suddenly proposed a new park plan. On the contrary, Kaohsiung has been operating the southern semiconductor S corridor for many years, and during the one and a half term of Mayor Chen Qimai, he completed the Asia Bay 2.0 blueprint. Lai Ruilong, who took over, also strengthened and completed the subsequent Asia Bay 3.0 park plan.
