[ad_1]

Three days after the Evergreen Women’s University life case, Tainan Mayor Huang Weizhe finally posted a painless “sincere apology” on Facebook. In addition to apologizing to the families of the university women and the people of the country, he also announced that he would establish an expanded security system. The report said: “Request money and people, and a comprehensive inspection of lighting around campus and student housing areas.” He also said that senior police officers must be aware of their own leadership responsibilities. It will discuss with the central government before reporting to the outside world. report. Since “the responsibilities of high-ranking police officers” should be discussed with the central government and reported to the outside world, Huang Weizhe should tell the outside world: Where are you and the Tainan city government?

People have misfortunes and blessings, and homicides can occur in places where public safety is good; In the face of such sudden homicides, as a local parental officer, apart from self-reproach, it is nothing more than expressing deep regret for the loss of life and trying all means to console the dead, consoling the living; it’s just that Huang Weizhe obviously couldn’t misjudge the situation along the way.

It is not to find fault with the mayor of Tainan; is that the Tainan city government has been reversed for the past three days, unable to understand the status of the incident investigation, nor can it empathize with the impact of the incident on the hearts of the people. First, the Quy Nhon branch publicly issued a press release stating that no student had been victimized to report the crime before, and then the person in question showed the communication log and slapped themselves; then the mayor personally argued with the students: “Are the street lights really not on? Only two of them were off.” Everyone is dead and Huang Weizhe continues to argue over trivial matters, even stating that similar cases are “unpredictable”, and both shirk their responsibilities and lose their sight.

This is not the first time. In the early morning of October 13 this year, the Tainan City Government implemented the project to demolish the last two houses of the South East Railway Relocation Policy. Residents and students at the scene fought fiercely. Unexpectedly, the mayor’s Facebook post that morning An image of Huang Weizhe smiling (pictured) jokingly stated, “The national holidays are over, my eyes are smiling and tears are floating,” sprinkling salt directly on the wounds of the conflict. . In front of the passionate students, Huang Weizhe blurted out that “students must support students in Hong Kong,” making the students present even more enthusiastic and outraged.

The eastern movement of the Southern Railway is an established policy of successive mayors of Tainan. Even if forced demolition is unavoidable, as a local parent official, even if you can’t empathize with the anger of those resisting, you should at least know not to mention firefighting. From Huang Weizhe’s team’s Facebook post that day to the statement that the students were asked to support Hong Kong after the fact, it showed that the team did not regard it as a crisis incident. But with that said, if the final demolition of the South Railway East is not considered a major event for the Tainan city government, what else deserves the attention of this team?

Tainan is the most important bastion of the ruling power of the DPP. In 2008, when the DPP was weakest, it could still hit a home run in the local legislature. But this situation will not be until the end of 2018, the election of Huang Weizhe as mayor of Tainan Time has changed, Huang only won 38% of the vote in that election, if the opposition party had not provided an old face without affinity and explosive power, it would not be clear who would die. Tainanese support for the DPP has long been taken for granted, but the mayor, who jumped low, is still in power, thinking that if he acts cute and obedient, he will be able to survive without a trace. It’s no wonder more and more people believe that the new violation of DPP governance lies in Tainan.

Going back to this unfortunate case of the Evergreen Women’s Congress, if even the president’s cabinet publicly apologized to the people of Malaysia, is the rate of punishment for the removal of just one district chief from Quyren reasonable? If the above incidents at the police station and the long-term failure of the street lights are fact, what are the responsibilities of the Tainan Police Department, the Bureau of Education and the mayor himself? Political responsibility is not administrative responsibility. Political responsibility is the response and accountability of elected chiefs and administrative officials to public opinion. The occurrence and follow-up of the case of the life of the female congress has disturbed the Chinese people, what did Huang Weizhe give to society?

In the face of loss of life, it is simple for politicians to apologize, but if politicians can blame themselves from the inside out, empathize with the pain of family members, and perceive the anger and discomfort of society, it is impossible to pretend. After the incident, the mayor first got rid of his responsibilities and then went to another battlefield. After three days of burning, he said he would “sincerely apologize.” The trivial matter has long become an important one. This is what Huang Weizhe did in the dark green area of ​​Tainan in the past two years. The reason for the left and the right.
