Legislator of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), Wang Shijian, said before going to the WTO to participate in the Spring Festival couplets event today that he hopes Ke Jianming would step down so that the DPP faction's operations and communication with the opposition can be more smooth. Everyone is very grateful to Ke Jianming, who has contributed a lot to the DPP for 30 years. But now, the times have changed. It's no longer the past where political parties must fight to the death.
Wang Shijian emphasized that when the ruling party is small and the opposition is large, all political difficulties must be resolved through negotiations between the ruling and opposition parties. Therefore, he believes that Ke Jianming should step down, allowing younger generations to take over the positions of the faction leader and the party group to present new approaches and offer different perspectives on cross-party negotiations.
Wang Shijian mentioned that President Lai Ching-te has repeatedly urged Ke Jianming to know when to step back. Everyone has shown gratitude to Ke, the faction leader, for his past assistance, which the people of Taiwan have seen and remembered. He also said that he boldly appeals to Ke Jianming, the faction leader, whether he could know when to step back. If he wants to step down from the faction leader position, this is a crucial moment in history, which is very important.
Wang Shijian said that Ke, the faction leader, had previously said that he would serve until the end of this session, and by the end of January, it would be concluded. Then, new faction leaders and party officials should be elected. Personally, he hopes that Ke Jianming, the faction leader, will keep his word and act on his promises, which is the way of a man.
