James Soong: Banning drugs is more urgent than banning smoking. All walks of life should pay attention to the drug problem

James Soong said that last month he mentioned that it is impossible for Taipei City to become a smoke-free city, and that drug ban is more urgent than smoking ban. He reiterated that the drug problem is serious and all walks of life should pay more attention to it.

Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan and Democratic Progressive Party Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang clashed over drug control policies. People People's Party Chairman James Soong went to Taichung City today to set up a platform for party member candidate Huang Chaoyuan. He mentioned last month that it is impossible for Taipei to become a smoke-free city, and drug ban is more urgent than smoking ban. This time, drug control controversy broke out in Taipei. He once again reminded that the drug problem is serious and drug eradication is a major matter that all walks of life should pay more attention to.

Regarding the Taipei mayoral election, Soong said that today is a big day on the weekend. Many candidates across the country are running for election, which is very lively. However, the people used a very cautious attitude and enthusiasm during the election. They hope that the elected person will be "qualified" instead of just "win the election", live up to the people's expectations, take responsibility, and do the things they promised.

Shen Boyang had previously responded to media inquiries about whether to seek help from James Soong. People with political experience are all wanted to visit. Regarding this, James Soong said that he is a rare political figure in Taiwan. He followed former President Chiang Ching-kuo and implemented the last wish of Taiwan's local reform. After direct presidential elections and the end of the National Congress, he is the only person who has participated in the fruitful results.

For example, if a candidate for mayor of Taipei raises a question to him, he is happy to share his opinion with everyone. He also announced that next month he will officially publish a book about his past political experience, nearly 200,000 words, and publish all the challenges and all the big and small things. It will be called "Quiet Revolution". The Quiet Revolution is by no means peaceful, but it does not arrest people, does not shed blood, communicates with sincerity, coordinates step by step, and completes reforms.

James Soong emphasized that after being elected, politicians should not look at their competitors with hostility, but should find ways to adopt Yayan, form a team that can do things, and solve the many problems currently facing Taiwan one by one.
