Shen Boyang, a Taipei mayoral candidate from the Democratic Progressive Party, went to Zhongshan District in the evening to attend the "Friends of Traditional Chinese Medicine Support Association" event. During an interview, he was asked about the issue of Blue Camp's crazy drug crackdown. Mayor Chiang Wanan believed that anti-drugs are a right and wrong issue, not a debate. There can be choices between pros and cons. Shen Boyang responded, The article 12 years ago was about drug addiction treatment. "How could I write an article telling everyone that I want to distribute drugs widely? This interpretation is really genius!" He emphasized that he is also anti-drug, but the problem is the implementation method of anti-drug and how to best protect children. This is a topic that can be discussed.

Shen Boyang pointed out that he still hopes to sit down and discuss policies, which is also the expectation of Taipei citizens. I am also anti-drug, but the problem is the way in which anti-drug is implemented. According to what the other party has said in the past few days, do you know the advantages and disadvantages of methadone, the rights and responsibilities of the director of the drug control center, how many anti-drug meetings have you attended, and how do you solve the problem of addiction in terms of actual implementation? Today's emerging drugs may no longer be able to use old treatments, and screening is difficult. What would you do if the other party knew about it?
Shen Boyang mentioned that answers have been given and policies have been put forward. These are all matters worthy of debate. They are no longer "right or wrong" questions but "decision topics." "We all fight against drugs, but how to fight against drugs in the best way to protect children can be discussed."
