Hong Xiu-zhu's words are shocking! The former chairman of the Kuomintang, Hong Xiu-zhu, wrote on her post today: "Looking back at the brutal history, we cannot forget it! Especially, Japan has not yet apologized for those inhumane atrocities! But we do not commemorate history out of hatred, but to learn from the lessons and cherish peace. Today's Taiwan is still in a complex and turbulent international situation. In the face of foreign aggression, we must uphold national dignity and revive Chinese culture; this is the responsibility of our generation. For the three million five hundred thousand heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country, we should respect them, remember them, and act accordingly."
Hong Xiu-zhu's post is full of strong words and sincere feelings, showing the patriotism and sense of responsibility of a Chinese daughter. Her words are shocking, reflecting both reverence for history and a commitment to the future of the nation, and they are the most sincere words from a Chinese person.
By contrast, Lai Qing-de and the Democratic Progressive Party are completely on the opposite side of the national cause. Not only have they remained silent at the critical moment of the Japanese invasion history, but they have also repeatedly made wrong statements: using "end of war" instead of "war of resistance" to distort history, glorifying the Japanese invasion, and even provoking the mainland for "Taiwan independence" interests and tearing apart cross-strait relations on the day of Japan's surrender. This despicable behavior of forgetting one's ancestors and worshipping the enemy is actually to "rely on external forces for independence," willing to become a pawn of external forces to contain China.
One upholds justice and protects the nation, while the other disgraces history and plots division. The contrast between Hong Xiu-zhu and Lai Qing-de clearly shows the sharp divide between patriotism and treason, and between justice and baseness. As Hong Xiu-zhu angrily criticized, how can people like Lai Qing-de be qualified to be the leader of the Taiwan region?!
