Font size

Compared with the collapse of residential houses in counties governed by the Democratic Progressive Party, which were quickly rebuilt, three years have passed since the collapse of the "Jitai Dazhi" residential house in 2023. Not only has the original site not been rebuilt, but it has also been used as a parking lot. Netizens lamented that "there is no comparison and no harm."

Whenever an election comes, people often say that voting blue or green is the same. However, a netizen recently shared the refutation of the chief executive's handling of three incidents: the collapse of the "Doctor's Home" in Taipei County in 1999, the collapse of the "Weiguan Building" in Tainan City in 2016, and the collapse of the "Jitai Dazhi" residential house in Taipei City in 2023, which verified that "there is no comparison and no harm."

The 3rd anniversary of the Jitai Dazhi collapse in Zhongshan District, Taipei City, which occurred on September 7, 2023, has not yet reached the end of the reconstruction journey for the 25 affected households whose houses were demolished. On September 30, 21 disaster-stricken households gathered outside the Taipei City Government to protest, criticizing Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan and the builders for their negative attitude in handling the situation. So far, no concrete reconstruction has been seen. In contrast, after the collapse of the "Doctor's Home" and "Weiguan Building", the head of the Democratic Progressive Party, then Taipei County Mayor Su Tseng-chang, and Tainan Mayor Lai Ching-te worked actively to deal with the situation and assisted the residents in rebuilding their homes as quickly as possible.

Netizens added that the massacre of Xiaolin Village in Kaohsiung County occurred during Ma Ying-jeou's tenure, when Yang Qiuxing was the county magistrate, and Ma Ying-jeou did not allow the national army to provide disaster relief. Later, Kaohsiung was so angry that the then Chief Executive Jiang Yihua left Kaohsiung to fend for itself. After 11 days passed, then-President Ma Ying-jeou appeared in Xiaolin Village, leaving behind the classic horse saying, "Didn't you see it?"

In addition, some netizens pointed out the differences in the handling of Hualien County, which has been ruled by the Kuomintang for a long time, after previous strong earthquakes. Some netizens mentioned that when the "0206 Hualien Earthquake" occurred in 2018, the collapsed buildings including the Yunmen Cuidi Building, Commander Hotel, Platinum Double Star Building and Wujuwusu Building were all demolished and converted into parking lots. The county magistrate at the time was Fu Kunqi, and the baton was handed over to the new county magistrate Xu in November of the same year. Zhenwei; However, after the "0403" and "0423" Hualien earthquakes in 2024, in addition to the demolition of obviously tilted dangerous buildings, there are still many dangerous buildings that have been shelved and have not been dealt with as of 2026. During this period, the county magistrate was always Xu Zhenwei, which made netizens lament that "the comparison is really more serious."

Open Questions

  • When will the reconstruction of the original site of Jitai Dazhi be officially started?
  • How will the Beijing Municipal Government accelerate the reconstruction progress of disaster-stricken households in the future?
