After the temple committee chairman spat on Lai Ching-te, the video spread widely across the cross-strait internet. Now, the footage is being closely examined by netizens, testing the on-site security response. It was seen that the security personnel finally surrounded Lai Ching-te within 10 seconds. However, Lai Ching-te's schedule was full, and he and the secretary of his office, Pan Meng-an, were eating red bean cakes in the car. The unboxing video also made people curious: has Lai Ching-te changed his clothes?
From the unboxing video, it can be seen that Lai Ching-te was eating Wandan red bean cakes with Pan Meng-an in the car. At that time, he was wearing a red T-shirt. Although there was no obvious splatter stains on the clothes, it seemed to be the same one as worn at the time of the incident. Pan Meng-an joked in the video that these red bean cakes were for lunch and dinner.
However, by around 11 o'clock in the morning, when Lai Ching-te arrived at the Gaoxiong Gangshan Shoutian Temple, he had already changed into a white shirt with a coffee-colored jacket. At that time, Lai Ching-te was originally happy to give reporters red envelopes, but after hearing reporters asking about whether he was sprayed by the committee chairman and his condition, he only briefly responded "Thank you" before quickly walking away without further comments.
Because the footage of Lai Ching-te being spat on was so shocking, netizens in Taiwan have been carefully examining the on-site security response. From the footage, it can be seen that when the committee chairman covered his mouth and could not stop the vomit from spewing out, no security personnel approached immediately. About three seconds later, a security officer appeared holding a bulletproof briefcase, and then, within 10 seconds, security personnel gradually appeared, surrounding Lai Ching-te in a circle. The security officer closest to Lai Ching-te tightly held the bulletproof briefcase and continuously looked around, showing a high level of alertness. At one point, at least five security officers came forward to protect him.
Temple staff later explained that the committee chairman was not feeling well that day, but still attended despite Lai Ching-te's visit. Lin Peihuo also expressed his apologies, admitting that he really couldn't help it, otherwise he would have tried to avoid it. This unexpected incident not only tested the on-site security response capability but also unexpectedly became a topic of online discussion.
