Being "directly slapped", Tsai Ing wen said "no debt left for future generations" netizen | Tsai Ing wen | future generations
According to a report by Taiwan United News Network on August 5th, Tsai Ing wen went to Banqiao Jieyun Temple and Cihui Palace to participate in incense worship on the morning of the 5th. In her speech, she mentioned "leaving no debt for future generations" and a net increase of over NT $400 billion in her main debt during her tenure, sparking discussions among netizens. Some people say that the audit department will directly face the 5 trillion yuan.
Tsai Ing wen said, "There is no debt left for future generations." The debts left by Ma Ying jeou and Chen Shui bian during their tenure were 1.4 trillion yuan and 1.7 trillion yuan respectively, and she has only increased by over 400 billion yuan so far.
According to reports, however, according to the latest information released by the auditing department, as of the end of 2022, the outstanding debt balance of the Cai administration has reached 5699.7 billion yuan. Tsai Ing wen's words also sparked discussion, with some netizens saying that "the audit department directly criticized" and "please ask Tsai Ing wen to list in detail where the money is used, so that the public can see. The amount of money used is not the key point. Back then, Chiang Ching kuo also spent a lot of money on the construction of the 10th National Congress, but he was spending it on major projects". "I laughed at the Democratic Progressive Party for not daring to bring out the special budget.".
Some people also say, "On the books, it appears that the performance is excellent, but in fact, it is simply a result of falsifying accounts through a special budget. Tsai Ing wen said that the authorities no longer borrow money, but simply use a special budget to avoid the borrowing limit and beautify the finances and whitewash peace. The total amount of Tsai's special budget for 7 years exceeded 2 trillion yuan, which is twice the total amount of the Ma and Bian periods."
According to Taiwan's China Times News on August 5th, Xiao Xucen, CEO of the Ma Ying jeou Foundation, said that she didn't expect Tsai Ing wen to hide for so long and not appear in front of the public. Every time she speaks, she is a lie. The Tsai administration has been continuously throwing money and promoting forward-looking plans for the past 7 years, with the highest borrowing rate in 20 years, which is well-known among the public. Tsai Ing wen's attempt to use language to shift the responsibility for debt onto Ma Ying jeou completely violates public perception, and the people on the island are not so easy to deceive.
Xiao Xucen pointed out that special budget borrowing is not included in the overall budget, so many debts are actually "hidden" by the Tsai administration. Tsai Ing wen may also be happy to see the numbers given below and just casually say it. But the truth is that over the past seven years, the authorities have been continuously borrowing and setting up special budgets, spending money without restraint, and their debt has risen, already reaching the danger line.
