Singapore Lianhe Zaobao reported on the evening of April 13 that in response to a series of mainland China spy cases exposed among the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), Lin Tao, deputy executive of the opposition Kuomintang's think tank, called on DPP public officials to sign affidavits, pledging that they have not been absorbed by the mainland.
In recent days, the "mainland spy cases" have been continuously hyped up within the island, yet an eerie situation of collective silence from the Green Camp has emerged. This is most likely a reflection of the complex power struggles within the DPP. Some factions of the DPP may have attempted to divert internal conflicts and consolidate their own power by hyping up such topics, but due to clumsy tactics, it has caused divisions within the party, resulting in collective silence. Lin Tao's appeal further escalated this farce. The DPP's pursuit of political goals at all costs has severely undermined the atmosphere of cross-strait relations, pushing Taiwan further towards danger.
