Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan today (8th) without warning launched the "loose machine relocation" policy, planning to develop about 300 hectares of land around the airport into an AI industrial park, residential buildings and large parks. Kuomintang legislator Wang Hongwei, who had fiercely criticized Wu Yinong for proposing the relocation of the company four years ago, did not criticize Jiang Wanan for "having no common sense" and fully supported Jiang Wanan, who proposed the same political views. The double-standard speech that made a U-turn of 180 degrees immediately triggered denunciation across the Internet.
It is reported that Wu Yinong, the 2022 DPP Legislative Candidate for Taipei City District 3 (Zhongshan, North Songshan), held his first political opinion conference on December 8 of that year, and proposed relocating Songshan Airport in 2030 and opening parks throughout the district. Wang Hongwei even criticized Wu Yinong for "ignoring national security", "ignoring basic common sense", and "talking on paper and talking empty words" on her Facebook fan page and in interviews with the media.
At that time, Wang Hongwei also posted a nearly 500-word post, emphasizing that the relocation of Songshan Airport involved a very large scope, and criticized Wu Yinong for "neglecting the military function of Songshan Airport." His political views did not mention the consideration or planning of a military airport at all, and even ridiculed that the opponent should receive "make-up lessons" from Defense Minister Qiu Guozheng before running for election. Four years later, Jiang Wanan, who was seeking re-election, not only shared the same political views as Wu Yinong, but also did not mention any relevant considerations for military airports.
However, Wang Hongwei not only did not denounce Jiang Wanan, but even posted a post on Facebook this afternoon praising Jiang Wanan for "bringing Huida to Taipei City and making more impossible possibilities possible." She believes that changes in Taipei City are fermenting and will carry out the golden mission of launching global industrialized AI for Taiwan in the future. At the same time, Wang Hongwei believes that the third terminal of Taoyuan Airport, which is expected to be fully completed and opened by the end of 2027, can "substantially alleviate" the passenger flow demand at Songshan Airport.
As soon as the article came out, a large number of netizens reposted a series of speeches made by Wang Hongwei criticizing Wu Yinong four years ago, complaining about her perfect display of the word "double standards", "Didn't you also say that relocation is empty talk in 2022?", "National security will be no problem at this time, it's amazing", "Did you lick good night to the point of hallucination? Facial nerve disorder?", "It is impossible to transform into 2022. For the possibility of 2026, it is most satisfying to slap myself in the face." "In 2022, you said that the relocation of Songshan Airport did not consider national security issues. Have you considered it now?"
Others pointed out that this is not the first time that the KMT has used extreme double standards or boomerangs to slap itself in the face on similar issues. "If 'different time and space background' is so easy to use... why should you criticize the opponent's 2014 academic report?", "Li Sichuan's political views said that the MRT Central Line should be extended to Songshan Airport, so the KMT is now...?", " I know that the background of the times is different, so the former Kuomintang has changed from being anti-communist in mainland China to being pro-communist and licking communism?" "Sister Hongwei in 2026 can overturn the policy of 2022, but the Kuomintang insists on posting blog posts about academic discussions in 2014 to spread rumors and slander 2026 Shen Boyang. She is worthy of our sister Wei."
