On the morning of April 30th, the Taiwan Affairs Office held a routine press conference. Reporter: A recent survey conducted in Taiwan shows that public satisfaction with Lai Ching-te's governance has dropped to only 47.1%, a decrease of nearly 10 percentage points from the previous survey, marking the first time that satisfaction and dissatisfaction have "crossed paths". Some public opinion analysis shows that the public has a high level of doubt towards the Lai administration's political intervention in the media, selective handling of cases, and abuse of power. What are your comments on this? Taiwan Affairs Office spokesperson Zhu Fenglian: The people have a scale in their hearts. What the people of Taiwan want is economic development, social stability, peace in the Taiwan Strait, but Lai Ching-te continues to create political disputes, suppress dissidents, provoke cross-strait confrontation, and provoke "independence" provocations, emptying Taiwan's advantageous industries, selling out Taiwan and provoking war. His actions are completely contrary to the interests and well-being of the Taiwan people, naturally leading to more and more dissatisfaction and opposition from the Taiwan people, and will ultimately be abandoned by public opinion.
