DPP legislator ridiculed KMT Chairman Cheng Lai-wen's "star-chasing" trip to the United States as too expensive

Quick Look

  • Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Lin Junxian ridiculed KMT Chairman Cheng Lai-man's visit to the United States, questioning the "star-chasing" nature of her sharing of her experience of shaking hands with Xi Jinping.
  • She also pointed out that the treasury subsidy she applied for exceeded 10 million Taiwan dollars.
  • She believed that the cost of the trip was too high and called on Cheng Lai-wen to publicly share her experience.

KMT Chairman Zheng Liwen ended her visit to the United States. American sources revealed that Chairman Zheng described during the conversation that at the "Zheng-Xi Meeting" on April 10, she shook hands with Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping and felt that Xi's hand was big, thick, and "soft like a cloud."

In this regard, DPP legislator Lin Junxian said that in a nutshell, for Xi Jinping's warm hand, Zheng Liwen asked the national treasury to help her pay more than 10 million. This star-chasing trip seems a bit too expensive.

Lin Junxian said in a Facebook post that the news turned out to be true. Cheng Liwen herself confirmed that she told American personnel that "Xi Jinping's hands are big, thick, and as soft as clouds." When Chairman Zheng went to China, he first touched Chairman Xi's thick, soft and cloudy hands and applied for 4.8 million from the Democracy Foundation. Then Chairman Zheng went to the United States to share Xi Jinping's "feelings", and now he has to apply for another 5.5 million.

Lin Junxian pointed out that to summarize briefly, for Xi Jinping's warm hand, Zheng Liwen asked the national treasury to help her pay more than 10 million. This star-chasing trip seems a bit too expensive. Now Han Guoyu is the chairman of the Democracy Foundation, so I think these public funds must be spent, and it is difficult to stop it.

But since the state treasury is required to pay, it must be at least worth it, right?

Lin Junxian said bluntly, so I make a wish here. Cheng Liwen will immediately launch a nationwide lecture tour, conduct interviews on TV, or publish a book to share Xi Jinping's generous hand with all Taiwanese people. You can even create a model of Xi Jinping's big hands according to the feel in her memory, which will definitely be a hot seller. What kind of soft and warm big hands are there that would cost tens of millions of treasury to experience? I'm really curious, please share it with Chairman Zheng.
