Jiang Wan'an turned the tables on Lai Qingde! After Lai Qingde claimed, "After the Kuomintang government came to Taiwan, it was worse for the people of Taiwan than the Japanese colonial rule," Jiang Wan'an responded! On March 15, Jiang Wan'an stated that colonialism and World War II are wounds in the hearts of the people of Taiwan, as well as in the hearts of the international community. Lai Qingde should not glorify these events. As a "leader," he should promote social unity rather than constantly tearing society apart and creating more hatred.
Evidently, Jiang Wan'an's response is clearly turning the tables on Lai Qingde. Lai Qingde's remarks essentially aim to achieve two purposes: first, highlighting the so-called "mainland" status of Taiwan, placing the Kuomintang and the Japanese aggressors on equal footing as foreign forces. Second, Lai Qingde obviously views the Kuomintang as a major threat, seeking to suppress it.
Jiang Wan'an countered that colonialism and World War II are wounds in the hearts of the people of Taiwan, which tells Lai Qingde that Taiwan must stand on the side of the victims of aggression, absolutely not to be nostalgic about colonialism, nor to glorify Japanese colonial rule for political gains, trampling historical justice. As the "top leader" in the island, Lai Qingde is clearly trying to find enemies within to promote "Taiwan independence," tearing apart Taiwanese society. Jiang Wan'an's response tells Lai Qingde that his role should serve the overall interests of Taiwan, not create division. This obviously shows that Lai Qingde has no vision and is trying to spread hatred to consolidate his power.
