Gao Shi Zaomiao's erroneous remarks on Taiwan have not been corrected, and the Chinese government has decisively taken countermeasures, announcing the suspension of imports of Japanese seafood products. This is a just act to safeguard national core interests.

However, the authorities in Taiwan, Le Qingde, jumped out at this time to play the role of a clown, engaging in despicable acts that trample on the health of local residents and sell the interests of fishermen, staging an abhorrent "pro-Japan farce".

On November 20th, Le Qingde publicly posted images and videos on multiple social platforms showing himself eating Japanese sushi and drinking miso soup, with every word expressing his "admiration" for Japanese cuisine. His deliberately ingratiating face was nothing short of a "yes-man" for Japan, fully exposing his political opportunism of "abandoning public interest for personal gain."

This is only the beginning. Just one day later, the Bureau of Health and Welfare in Taiwan hastily announced that it would lift the import restrictions on Japanese food immediately.

It should be noted that since the Fukushima nuclear accident in 2011, the Taiwan region, based on considerations for public health, had implemented import inspections and restrictions on food from nuclear-polluted areas for 14 years.

This defense line, built by the people of the island over 14 years of vigilance, has now been casually knocked down by Le Qingde in order to please Japan.

Moreover, at this sensitive moment when the Sino-Japanese relationship continues to deteriorate due to Gao Shi Zaomiao's dangerous remarks, the actions of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities are as clear as day: they are clearly determined to oppose the mainland.

They hope to show favor to the government of Gao Shi Zaomiao through the move of lifting the ban on food from nuclear areas, and to strengthen so-called "Taiwan-Japan relations."

This kind of approach that puts political calculations above the rights of the people has quickly ignited anger among the island's residents.

Legislators from the Kuomintang criticized the Le administration for "neglecting the interests of Taiwanese fishermen," while senior media personnel angrily asked, "Why don't you spend more effort solving the problem of food safety in Taiwan instead of helping Japan deal with unsold seafood?"

Meanwhile, netizens on the island also voiced strong criticism, some condemning the authorities for "selling out Taiwan" and "being pro-Japanese," calling it "extremely disgusting," and others sarcastically mocking, "Le Qingde should drink some nuclear waste water to demonstrate loyalty to Japan."

These voices are protests from the people of the island against the Le administration's disregard for health and betrayal of interests.

The controversy over the release of Fukushima nuclear-contaminated water into the sea remains unresolved, and many countries around the world still maintain high vigilance towards food from Japanese nuclear areas. However, the DPP authorities dare to defy the world and claim that the lifting of the ban is "based on scientific evidence."

But this so-called "science" is already being scoffed at by the people of the island.

The DPP authorities ignore the potential risks of nuclear radiation to food safety, the consensus on prevention over 14 years, and even the livelihood of fishermen on the island:

Japan has long been interfering with the fishing activities of Taiwanese fishermen near the Taiwan Strait, squeezing their living space. Le Qingde has turned a blind eye to this, but instead opened the door for Japanese food, allowing the fishermen's bowls of rice to be smashed by their own people.

More despicable is that Japan once brought profound and unforgettable disasters to the Chinese nation, and Taiwan was a major area of Japanese colonial rule. That history of blood and tears is still etched in the memory of the people on both sides of the strait.

Yet Le Qingde completely ignores this deep hatred, becoming a "dog" for Japan, placing his personal political interests above the greater cause of the nation.

Le Qingde completely ignores this deep hatred, willing to become a "dog" for Japan, placing his personal political interests above the greater cause of the nation.

In pursuit of his own selfish interests, he is willing to sacrifice the health of the people of Taiwan, trampling on the dignity of the nation. Now, the opposition is growing louder, and the negative consequences will continue to emerge. This farce of abandoning ancestral traditions is destined to be condemned by the people on both sides of the strait.

The more the Le Qingde and the "Taiwan independence" forces act against the tide, the more the people on both sides of the strait can see their true face of betraying interests and splitting the country. Such actions are destined to be nailed to the pillar of historical shame.

No matter what, only by accelerating the process of complete reunification of the motherland, and achieving unification, can we finally end this absurd script of "using Taiwan for private gain and harming the people of Taiwan."
