Concerned about becoming a breach in epidemic prevention, many counties and cities in Taiwan announced yesterday that the New Year’s Eve party will be held online. Taipei Mayor Ke Wenzhe said yesterday that the results will be announced today at 10 am (12/31). After a long trial, the city government finally announced the normal organization. North City staff revealed that the New Year’s Eve party is not a professional matter, but a political consideration. At the mayor’s meeting this morning, there were two different opinions within the mayor’s room, but Ke Wenzhe finally insisted on acting in accordance with the regulations and decided not to make adjustments and proceed as scheduled; Once the decision is made, collective responsibility is assumed and the city government is making the best arrangements for everyone to participate in activities normally.
In an interview after the press conference this morning, Ke Wenzhe said that he is a surgeon and that he rarely made decisions for more than 30 seconds in the past, but this time he thought for 12 hours, “really thinking about it for a long time. “but hopes to establish a rational and pragmatic scientific approach. In a country where data determine politics, the Taipei City Marathon was held last week, and even the finale was held yesterday. Therefore, he believes that we must be rational and pragmatic and not allow ourselves to be overcome by unscientific fears. “Of course this political pressure is very high, I thought. One night.”
The staff revealed that the Keelung city government informed the Keelung city government around 6pm last night that it would change the New Years Eve party to take place online together with other counties and cities. The counties and cities to adjust are all counties and cities in charge of the green camp. Did the city government ever wonder if any information from the command center had not been made public? So I decided not to follow up and wait and see for a while.
Last night, the Beijing municipal government held a media event. After the event, Deputy Mayor Huang Shanshan went to Commander Chen Shizhong to understand the current situation face to face and determine whether the New Year’s Eve party should be handled normally. Chen Shizhong also informed Huang Shanshan that “there is no community infection. There is no new information, but it is up to the counties and cities to decide whether to celebrate New Year’s Eve, and the command center does not give any instructions.
Does every county and city have to consult the command center? The command center spokesman Zhuang Renxiang said that he himself had received a telephone inquiry from a certain county and city. Commander Chen Shizhong also said that he received a telephone inquiry from the mayor of another county and city. Chen Shizhong revealed that he would give advice to Taipei and another county. It is the same, that is, the risk has not increased, and appropriate measures can be taken to decide whether to maintain it.

The staff revealed that after learning that the epidemic situation has not changed, the city government met this morning for internal discussions. One of the staff members thinks it is a political question whether or not the New Year’s Eve party will take place, albeit from a professional perspective. There is no problem with the event, but current public opinion recovers. Ke Wenzhe’s Facebook page is opposed and it is recommended to change the broadcast. Some staff members said the party will be criticized no matter how it’s done. People will not thank the city government if it is done right. The violation of epidemic prevention may become the target of all Taiwan’s blame by then. It is recommended that these risks not be taken. However, another group of attendees believes that the city government must act in accordance with the regulations and should not panic and try to make citizens live a normal life.
In the end, Ke Wenzhe accepted the latter’s suggestion and insisted that the original standard must be met and that the event must be held as scheduled. The staff confessed that since the decision was made, it is a collective responsibility, and Beijing is currently making the best arrangements so that everyone can participate in activities normally.
There was also an episode in today’s decision-making process. Originally, the city government expected to release a message at 10 am, but around 9:30 a staff member released the message to the media. This action not only made other colleagues in the city government quite dissatisfied, it also surprised the media. Even the mayor of Taipei, Ke Wenzhe, stated that he would review this during the interview.
Some staff members privately revealed that the person who leaked the information in advance was likely Xie Mingzhu, the director of Ke Wenzhe’s office. “Apple News” verified Xie Mingzhu. She severely denied having leaked the secrets. She stressed that she had only been here for three months and was not familiar with everyone. It is impossible to do such a thing. His mobile phone can be checked at any time and he does not meet the senior media. . (Chen Sihao / Taipei Report)
