Font size

Singer Luo Dayou commented that former President Tsai Ing-wen had no children, triggering discussions on women's autonomy and marriage and childbearing. Tsai Ing-wen and Taipei 101 Chairman Chia Yongjie coincidentally published articles expressing their stance on women's life choices, care for the next generation and body autonomy. However, they were subsequently attacked by a large number of accounts from unknown sources. In response, Jia Yongjie posted multiple screenshots of attack messages in the middle of the night, sarcastically saying, "Sorry to bother you, can we all be the same?" Taiwan Meme, a fan blog that often comments on current affairs, also pointed out that a large number of "885" Tsai Ing-wen's messages were sprayed, and the account was flooded with dozens of messages at a time. Therefore, Xiaoying has turned on restricting messages for now. This also made netizens criticize, "Don't the netizens think that the manuscripts they use are problematic?" and "The series of operations are too obvious."

Jia Yongjie also posted multiple screenshots on the community late last night. A closer look at the content revealed that a large number of accounts repeatedly posted the same message, questioning Jia Yongjie's misunderstanding of Luo Dayou, saying that Luo Dayou was not simply targeting women who were unmarried and had no children. The starting point of the entire paragraph was to discuss "the future of the next generation." In response to this, Jia Yongjie also sarcastically said, "I'm sorry to bother you, can you please not make them all the same?" It seems that this is an allusion to the other party's deliberate plate washing.

The recurring content of this paragraph is "Luo Dayou's original words are: Tsai Ing-wen has no children, Xiao Meiqin has no children, Chen Ju has no children, and Lai Qingde's son is in the United States. They don't have children like us, and we think a lot about the next generation. These people don't think too much. He clearly started the entire paragraph to discuss the "future of the next generation," not just for women who are unmarried and have no children. Don't lead the trend and wash away rumors. Let everyone know!! If you don't spread rumors, there will be no elections!!"

Media person Zhang Yuxuan left a message saying, "I will take a bench here and wait to see which blue and white real politician dares to agree with this statement." The fan page "Taiwan Memes" also left a comment below to emphasize that "in the past three hours, fake accounts have been washed everywhere."

"Taiwan Meme" also posted an article stating, "A large number of 885 messages are being flooded by Tsai Ing-wen, and the account is flooding dozens of messages at a time, so Xiaoying is currently limiting messages." "The Kuomintang, Jiang Wanan and Luo Dayou made their own mistakes. They want to use fake accounts to attack our President Xiaoying, and then take screenshots and leave messages to wash away tomorrow's news? How shameless, there is no way."

"Taiwan Memes" also explained, "885 is the amount of money laundered into Taiwan this year by the Investigation Bureau and suspected of manipulating the election. This large group of accounts is currently referred to as 885." Other netizens also criticized "I really want to know which marketing company the Kuomintang is...it is amazing how many fake accounts can be operated", "Don't the blue and white 885 netizens feel that there is something wrong with the draft they are using? Who said there are no small Don’t children think about the next generation?”, “A large number of cyber troops started to wash the page at 5 p.m., and attacked the question of reducing the birthrate.” “This series of operations is too obvious... Luo Dayou also deliberately mentioned the history of the CCP’s attempt to cleanse the memory: white terror, and provoked ethnic conflicts in his words. Then Jiang Wanan followed in the morning, Zheng Liwen also followed, and now a large number of cyber troops attacked Tsai Ing-wen... This old trick is too obvious.”

Civil servants have to pay out of their own pockets for using private cars for public use. The Executive Yuan responded.

The Accounting and Accounting Office of the Executive Yuan stated that it has started to study and revise the "Key Points for Reimbursement of Domestic Business Travel Expenses", and plans to reimburse tolls and parking fees in real terms, and will review the standards for self-driving reimbursement on a rolling basis. The Civil Service Association pointed out that the current reimbursement basis of 3 yuan per kilometer for passenger cars and 2 yuan for motorcycles is only equivalent to basic fuel consumption and does not cover vehicle wear and tear, tolls and parking fees. Grassroots civil servants often have to provide their own transportation and supplement the costs when performing inspections in mountainous areas or official duties in remote areas, which affects their willingness and morale to perform official duties.
