Because of the IDEOLOGIES of "We're ANTI-CHINA" of the DDP, causing everything here to, suffer, we can't import the produces (b/c of the insects found), we can't get the Chinese tourists, which brings down the tourism, the hotel industries, along with other businesses that are, on those, lines too, and it's all because of the DDP's being, ANTI-CHINA, at the costs of the people's, livelihoods…off of the Front Page Sections, translated…
After the country's border reopened, it'd been, over a year now, however, Taiwan's restrictions for Chinese tour groups were nowhere lifted et, it'd caused troubles for the travel agencies, and yet, the travel agencies couldn't wait, until March, when the restrictions were, finally, lifted, came the election year manipulations of the DDP, the tourism industries became the frontlines of the scapegoats under investigations for the influences of the tsunami of the benefits. Under the harsh laws, the government is unreasonable, we the people, live like, dogs, contrasting to the blank promises of the DDP's claims during the height of the pandemic of "worry now, there's the government backing the people up", who will feel, secure?

The election this time, the DDP magnified the chilling effect of "Chinese influencing the results of the elections" to the max, from before, there were the local boroughs setting up the tour groups to China, that got zoomed in on as they'd, returned, the closer we get to the elections, that net of "Chinese government influencing the outcomes of voting" got bigger still, not only is the government now, treating the Chinese spouses as the main concerns, they'd started, demanding that the Chinese reporters to only observe, but not write anything, and even now, the travel agencies are, under that, bus.
This was not the first time that the DDP, for the sake of their elections, disregarded the life and welfare of the people, the tourism industries had long been influenced by the politics. Not only did the industry suffer for three whole years due to the pandemic, the tourism bonuses of post-pandemic era, became, an illusion that's seen, but can't be, touched, last year, these travel agencies started, lobbying for the opening of routes, of tours between Taiwan and China across the island, and yet, before the formal opening of the tourism exchanges from both sides, the industry became the sacrificial goat of DDP ideologies in the election, year.
It is, only natural, that the travel agencies sell the products and tours, let alone, when the government banned the industries from selling the fares to designated, groups, this forms of normal ways of making a living, gets, sacrificed as the scapegoat of bad Chinese-Taiwanese relation in an, election, year. And, even if the travel agencies aren't criminally charged for anything, but they are under investigations, and the government demanded that these travel agencies to offer up the data of the clients.

In reality, the tourism industries had long gotten, used to the government's bullying their means of making a living on behalf of political reasonings, and there were the agencies that stated, "we won't last ten more, days", that after the elections, all will get, resolved. And yet, even after the election, we could, all let out that sigh of, relief, but these, ordinary citizens, the travel agency operators, all became, the sacrificial goat in this, election.
And so, this is, how the ideologies of a political party, ruined the livelihoods of an industry, because the DDP is waving that "We're ANTI-CHINA" banner so high, it'd disregarded, how huge the population in China is (that's what??? 'Round 13 billion, was it now???) and, it's, offering the travel vouchers, the minor incentives, for the people who live here, to travel more, to "boost" the economy? Yeah, there's only, a couple million in population here, versus, how many billion in population over there in China again? Yeah, and you can do the MATH if you wish to!
STUPIDITY is what this DDP government is, founded on all right.
