Yesterday, Taiwan's "Premier" Cho Yung-tai posted a statement clarifying that the trip on the 7th was a private trip with personal expenses, while yesterday, Sunday, was an official itinerary. He stated that the result was the same, feeling moved and excited, and that Taiwan is great!

American current affairs commentator Fang Engge immediately posted, stating that Cho Yung-tai said his trip to Japan was a self-funded private trip, which is good! Transparency is important! However, he then turned around and questioned, curious, whether the so-called self-funded includes the cost of the China Airlines special flight, accompanying staff (if any assistants or bodyguards), meals, tickets, ground transportation, etc.?

After Fang Engge's post, many Taiwanese netizens also left comments below: "Don't be so professional, okay?" "Stop asking, he has more than one-third of his assets spent on this game, if you keep asking he will go bankrupt." "If it's self-funded, show the bill, otherwise it's just cheating." "No money for rescue, but money for the plane to watch the game." "Wow~ his assets are only nine million?" "Are all the accompanying staff unpaid volunteers? Don't they need someone to handle airport access channels?" "Show the evidence of self-paid payment."

In addition, Yang Chih-yu, former spokesperson of the Kuomintang, posted that Cho Yung-tai said he self-funded the plane to Japan to watch the game. If he can't provide evidence of self-funding, then these words are just empty talk, full of doubts. A core important question: if it's really a private trip, why did the plane take off from the Taiwan military's Songshan Command? Yang Chih-yu continued, if it's a private trip, why is there such a high-level arrangement? The flight took off from the Songshan Command, with a large number of accompanying staff and security personnel. The overall level and costs far exceed those of a regular private trip. This discrepancy must be clearly explained by the "Executive Yuan."
