In response, Dong Siqi, deputy executive director of the Taiwan think tank, said that considering that China added the concept of hostile foreign forces to the Criminal Law last year, it should be used as an opportunity to amend the constitution to prevent forces hostile foreigners interfere with the principle of national development and national security. In the constitution.
The Taiwanese think tank noted that, considering current advanced democracies in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia, a consensus has emerged that totalitarian state intervention should be excluded.

Hu Boyan, a professor in the Law Department of Soochow University, pointed out that Taiwan’s degree of recognition is much higher than it was ten or twenty years ago, but the current constitutional text does not have the position of Taiwan.

Hu Boyan emphasized that Taiwan needs a constitution that conforms to real society and the spirit of the age.
Professor Chen Lifu, Acting President of the Taiwan Teachers Association, said that the original constitution was brought from Nanjing, not from Taiwan as the main body; Now China is constantly trying to absorb Taiwanese talents and even has the ambition to penetrate society and rule Taiwan. Can the constitution clarify cross-strait relations? And it is worth considering having a mechanism to defend democracy. Regarding hostile foreign forces, Chen Lifu presented a different view. He believes that 60% of those interviewed believe that China is a hostile foreign force, and the proportion is considered low, because in the era of authoritarianism, if the other party is not considered a hostile force, I am afraid that it would have already been in prison.
