In response to today’s KMT press conference (30), which once again falsely accused the DPP’s double standards in a confusing and ambiguous way in time and space, DPP spokesman Yan Ruofang said that the President Tsai Ing-wen announced last Friday (28) about the United States. It has been the third day since the importation of meat products was opened. The KMT continues to attack the DPP by distorting the facts and changing the details. It only opposes and hinders the development of Taiwan.

Yan Ruofang said, once again to remind the Kuomintang, do not always forget his earlier statement that the opening of American pigs and American cattle will help bilateral trade relations. Taking the past of different times and spaces in 2012 to measure current international food safety standards and the gradual maturity of scientific evidence in 2020, if the Kuomintang continues to ignore current international standards and the fact that scientific evidence has gradually matured and you are obsessed with the past, so ask them to continue to exist in past history, not to hinder the progress of Taiwan.
Yan Ruofang pointed out that the KMT again falsely accused the DPP’s double standards today, but the truth cannot be distorted. The DPP’s position has been unanimous so far after the Codex tolerance standard was published in 2012. It clearly advocates that the relevant opening should be followed. International standards, scientific evidence, “and insist on protecting the health of the Taiwanese people, this is beyond question.”

He further said that the Kuomintang has once again accused President Tsai of “to the end”, and we are here to restore the truth. In March 2013, President Tsai had two public occasions in response to the pig problem in America. They were in Yunlin. The interview read: “To continue to be concerned about the problem of American imitation pigs and hope to protect Taiwan’s pig industry, but also to help the industry improve its international competitiveness and open the market.” An interview in New Taipei City noted that “In the face of international pressure, the Malaysian government is alone Speaking in vain of the separation of cows and pigs, this kind of empty promise will make the Malaysian government recover and hurt the people. “And” The Malaysian government must be honest and international pressure continues to exist. This is a fact, but what method will the Malaysian government use? To respond to international pressure, we must make it clear to the people. “
Furthermore, in 2015, “when President Tsai Ing-wen was a candidate for the presidency of the Democratic Progressive Party, she publicly stated in a televised debate that clenbuterol use will refer to Japan and South Korea, whose eating habits are roughly the same than in our country. “International standards”; but national products do not use clenbuterol, nor do they accept the use of clenbuterol. Only then can the products be differentiated and be of higher quality than foreign ones “.
Yan Ruofang said that Tsai Ing-wen’s position was very clear at the time, that is, before discussing the related vacancies, you must first ensure the development of the industry, have comprehensive assistance packages, and clearly tell people how to respond. . After many years, the DPP returned to power. “From the prevention of African swine fever, the successful removal of Taiwanese pigs from FMD areas, to ensuring the high competitiveness of the domestic pork market, which the KMT could not do, the DPP did. When it arrives It is no wonder that the Kuomintang has not yet been able to find a way out in past time and space, leaving only saliva and stains.
Yan Ruofang emphasized that in recent years, the DPP has not only invested heavily in the transformation and assistance of the pig industry to improve the competitiveness of the industry, but also achieved what the Kuomintang was unable to do in the past: it eliminated with successfully foot and mouth disease, removed the affected area and prevented it. Du African swine fever struck Taiwan, making Taiwanese pigs a guarantee of high quality. So just after President Tsai announced the opening of American Hogs and Cattle, in recent days, as the Council of Agriculture worked hard to communicate with local industry players, the Swine Association expressed its understanding of the American pig opening policy and expressed confidence in Taiwanese pork. With specific suggestions to strengthen the segmentation of the Taiwan pork market, the DPP government will definitely help. Instead, the Kuomintang only wanted to use incomplete information to manipulate the opposition between parties and derive political benefits from it, which is especially unbearable.
