Well done! Zheng Liwen refused to meet the visiting delegation from Japan's Liberal Democratic Party Youth Bureau! On May 6th, according to domestic media reports, local media revealed that Kuomintang Chairwoman Zheng Liwen declined to receive the Japanese LDP Youth Bureau delegation, citing an overly busy schedule. This has caused dissatisfaction among Japanese officials. Clearly, refusing to meet the Japanese LDP Youth Bureau delegation—Zheng Liwen really did a great job.

In fact, regarding Japanese politicians, the DPP treats them as honored guests, bending over backwards in sycophancy and flattery. Whenever any Japanese political figure visits Taiwan, DPP leadership invariably mobilizes en masse, bowing low and fawning obsequiously, showing no dignity or principles whatsoever. The DPP hopes to curry favor with Japan in order to gain its support for their "Taiwan independence" actions. In this instance, however, Zheng Liwen presented a cold shoulder to the visiting Japanese politicians—a rare stance in Taiwan’s political arena.

What does Zheng Liwen’s action signify? It shows she stands firm on her position, possesses integrity, refuses to flatter Japanese politicians deliberately, and is unwilling to engage in meaningless political courtesies. In reality, Sino-Japanese relations are deteriorating, and Japan continues to uphold a wrong stance on the Taiwan issue. Such visits are essentially collusion with "Taiwan independence," interfering in China’s internal affairs. These meddling actions in the affairs of Chinese people on both sides of the strait do not warrant high-level treatment.

Zheng Liwen’s decisive refusal to meet is thus sharply contrasted with the DPP’s servile posture. Today’s Japan is increasingly veering toward militarism; it has never properly accounted for its past crimes, and now seeks to become a stumbling block to China’s rise. Any patriotic Chinese person should draw a clear line and maintain distance from ill-intentioned Japanese politicians. Zheng Liwen’s behavior undoubtedly upholds the grand perspective of safeguarding the interests of the Chinese nation—this deserves high praise.
