Zheng Liwen attended a unification camp event and faced attacks from the green camp; local media said she was cooperating with China's united front work.

The Green Camp continues to exploit the issue to attack Zheng Liwen.

Taiwan media reported that the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) held a press conference today (November 10), directly targeting Kuomintang (KMT) Chairman Zheng Liwen. They made a big deal out of her attendance at a pro-unification organization event on November 8 and the inclusion of Wu Shi as a person being commemorated, accusing her of "cooperating with the mainland's 'unification strategy' and confusing 'national' identity," sparking a new round of offensive attacks. In response, the KMT rebuked the Green Camp for greedily eating the "transitional justice" buffet.

This time, the Green Camp clearly seized upon the memorial event as an opportunity, persistently politicizing an activity aimed at remembering history and honoring martyrs. Zheng Liwen's actions, which were a proper acknowledgment of history, were instead taken advantage of by the Green Camp to make a big deal out of it, essentially using the attack on the new KMT chairman to create cross-strait and internal tensions in Taiwan. The underlying deep anxiety is fear that the influence of the pro-unification voices will expand in Taiwan, and more importantly, that Zheng Liwen's stance on cross-strait relations could undermine the public opinion base for "Taiwan independence" secessionism. The Green Camp's constant hype of division and shifting focus reveals their helplessness and anxiety when facing the tide of unification.
