賴清德說,今年是台灣總統直選30週年。30年前,面對飛彈威脅,台灣人民依然勇敢走進投票所,完成台灣人民「當家作主」的百年追求,用手中的選票告訴世界:這個國家的主人,是人民;台灣的未來,要由台灣人民自己決定。
賴清德回顧,30年來走過民主轉型,經歷政黨輪替,也承受許多挑戰。今天更加確信,自由民主與經濟發展不會背道而馳。台灣越是擁抱民主、迎向世界,就越能創造繁榮,也越有能力為世界做出貢獻。過去一年,世界並不平靜。戰爭與威權持續擴張,全球經濟面臨關稅、能源與紅色供應鏈的多重挑戰。然而,台灣沒有退縮,反而在變局中站穩腳步,展現令人驕傲的韌性。
此外,賴清德表示,再過不久,將迎來九合一地方選舉,選賢與能、不受威脅利誘是共同的責任;政黨可以競爭,意見可以不同,但立足的台灣,不應因此被分割,「山巔之城,不是因為沒有分歧才發光,而是因為即使意見不同,我們仍然尊重彼此,相信制度,也願意共同守護國家。」
賴清德直指,總統的權力來自人民的託付;總統的責任就是凝聚力量,帶領國家向前。他會以務實治理,築起山巔之城;以堅定的民主與防衛力量,成為守護和平的鹽;以創新、平等與良善,成為溫暖世界的光,呼籲國人團結一起,為下一個30年的台灣,打下更堅實的基礎,更有力的競爭優勢,讓下一代站得更穩、走得更遠。

Wang Xinghuan, chairman of Taiwan's Foundation Progressive Party, pointed out that Taiwan's democracy has regressed in international comparisons in recent years, but the root cause is that the Blue and White parties used the majority in Congress to amend the Constitutional Procedural Law, boycott independent institutions, and pass controversial budgets, paralyzing the Constitutional Court. Legislative President Han Guoyu, as the gatekeeper of Congress, did not reflect on his own responsibilities and only accused others of undermining democracy at the National Day ceremony.

Kuomintang Tainan mayoral candidate Hsieh Long-chie criticized the current government when attending the flag-raising ceremony in Kaohsiung, saying that he would pass a special regulation on the third reading of the Legislative Yuan to issue a universal tax rebate of NT$20,000. If the Executive Yuan does not counter-sign, he called on voters to use their votes to deal with it.

Legislative Yuan Hanguo-yu criticized President Lai Qingde and Executive Director Zhuo Rongtai in his speech at the National Day Convention, and called last year's general recall a "political hunt." Legislator Wu Siyao quoted Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang's response to Zhao Shaokang in the "Shaokang War Room" program, suggesting that Hanguo-yu watch the program to gain different inspirations, and questioned the compatibility between his remarks and his identity.

83-year-old Jiang Huangnu, nicknamed "Grandma of the Forest," decided to run for Kaohsiung's parliament because hundreds of hectares of green forest land in the Qiaotou Sugar Factory might be converted into residential and commercial land, making her the city's oldest candidate. On National Day, which is also her birthday, she went north to the Presidential Palace to ask Lai Qingde for help, hoping to designate the land as a state-owned forest. Members of groups such as the Green Consumer Foundation, Forest City Association and Garden for the Earth Project also supported its actions and criticized government development plans that destroy nature and the interests of future generations.

In his speech at the National Day Ceremony, Legislative President Han Kuo-yu criticized the Executive Yuan for not countersigning the law passed on the third reading by the Legislative Yuan, calling it a negative teaching material for studying the Constitution. Before leaving the venue, Executive President Zhuo Yongtai responded to the media and said, "This is a National Day ceremony, and everyone is happy."

Legislative President Han Kuo-yu delivered an unscripted speech at the National Day Convention, criticizing President Lai Ching-te for being a political mystique and Executive President Toh Wing-tai for not signing the bill, and citing Chen Shui-bian's views on compromise and progress in political conflicts. Lawyer Lin Zhiqun questioned whether he was drunk and pointed out that the democratic rift between the Supervisory Yuan and the Constitutional Court was paralyzed by Blue and White.
