Unlike his predecessor, Tsai, who TOOK the presidency from the KMT's Ma, Lai won't have the honeymoon phase like she had from eight years ago, and this would be harder on this new president elect for sure! Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…
It's been a month since Lai came into office, and the major events of Communist Chinese armed forces closing in on Taiwan in the military drills, the Executive Department's discussing the matter of legislative reform, and other major events. the scholars told, that compared to other presidents, and the honeymoon phases that his predecessors had had, the many challenges from internal and external departments, caused the president elect, Lai to not get his honeymoon phase of presidency; the Lai government, as a minority executive, Lai didn't play the role of mediator, instead, he'd made the environment of the legislative and executive branches to get filled with the conflicts, which will, alternatively, cause negative effects in the future, as he implements his policies.
The poli-sci professor from Taiwan Normal University, Chee stated, that the president elect, Lai had almost no honeymoon period to help him ease into the role of president. On the external environment, during the Ma presidency, there's the amicable enough relations with China, the former president, Tsai after she took over, in her inaugural address, she'd, stated the positions of the two sides, at the start, China gave her enough "leeway"; and as Lai continued after Tsai, with the DDP, already deadlocking the relationship of China and Taiwan, plus Lai in his inaugural address, stated that he believed Taiwan and China aren't unified, and Beijing immediately reacted negatively, and soon as Lai entered into office, tensions began building up higher and higher between China and Taiwan.
Chee pointed out, the troubles of the DDP government is that now, the DDP is the minority of legislature, the new government, the elected officials had disagreed on the issues of reforming the legislature with the parties that aren't in power, and, the opposing parties, naturally, didn't give the Lai government a buffer period; and on top of that, Lai is extending the governance of the DDP, and naturally, the people have a tougher demand, and we are bound to have a smaller leeway for the government led by Lai as well.
Chee stated, that as the full month in power that the former presidents, Ma and Tsai had passed, the polls showed a higher rate of support compared to Lai's polls, "this is the hard proof, of the president Lai, not having that honeymoon period." He recommended Lai needs to reduce friction, whether it be on the means of relations with China or his ruling over Taiwan, otherwise, filling the spectrum of the government with, hostilities and objections, this is nothing good for his future as president.
The honorary professor of Poli-Sci Graduate School, Liao told, that Lai won the presidency with forty-percent popular votes, plus the DDP losing out on the majority of legislative seats, it's a classic minority government; at the beginning of Lai's getting into office, he'd needed to make more friends, but the president, Lai didn't have the statures of the "president of the people", playing that needed role of a mediator and consolidator, instead, on the matter of legislative reform, he'd allowed the parties to stand opposite, to the point of the DDP, labeling the parties out of power, stating that the parties are leaning toward Communist Chinese government, and all of this, filled the political realm with, that air of, war.
And so, this is, the aftermath of what was left over by Tsai's TWO terms as president, and this time, the DDP president, Lai got voted into office again, but the DDP became the minority party in the legislature, which will in turn, make it even more difficult, for Lai to get his policies going, because, we the people, still hold the grudges of the past, remember WHO was it, that blocked out the BioNTech vaccines, because the agent in the Greater East was a pharmaceutical company from Shanghai??? Exactly, and now, the people start FIGHTING BACK!
