Taiwan People's Party Chairman Ko Wen-je is embroiled in a scandal over false accounts, but he remained optimistic on the 23rd, saying that this scandal is like "getting the measles" and that he will be immune to it. He also stressed that the accounts of the White House are definitely cleaner than those of the Blue and Green camps, and laughed at the Blue and Green camps for not daring to report honestly. Former Taipei Mayor Hau Lung-bin pointed out that Ko Wen-je is a liability to the People's Party rather than an asset. If the People's Party remains a one-person party, not only will it be difficult for the Blue and White camps to unite, but it may also become a bubble.

Ko Wen-je instructed then-campaign director Huang Shanshan to check the accounts, but has not held a press conference for three consecutive days to explain. Huang Shanshan explained yesterday that the detailed copy they had was blurred due to the folding of the pages, and that they had cooperated with the "Investigation Bureau" to photocopy the original vouchers yesterday, and further results will be announced later.

Ko Wen-je revealed in a statement that nearly 80% of the accounts have been checked, but in order to complete the formal accountant visa, the People's Party sent a letter to the Taipei City Accountants Association yesterday morning, asking the association to send personnel to assist in the audit, hoping to clarify the truth through independent audits by third-party professional organizations.

Ko Wen-je also expressed his confidence on an internal party program, saying that the People's Party must have made mistakes in this incident, including outsourcing all core businesses and the person in charge of finances not conducting repeated checks, but there are no fake invoices or fake accounts so far. He believes that this time it is like "getting the measles" and that the party will have immunity to it in the future.

Ko Wen-je also said that if they really had to compare their accounts, they would definitely be cleaner than the Blue and Green parties. He could guarantee that the accounts of the Blue and Green parties would not stand up to scrutiny more than those of the People's Party, "the People's Party at least dares to declare honestly."

The Democratic Progressive Party's Taiwan Public Opinion Organization caucus criticized yesterday that Ko Wen-je's political donations were a mess, and it would be difficult for the outside world to understand if anyone in the People's Party explained it. It should be handed over to external supervision, such as directly handing it over to the CPA Association for audit, and there would not be such a big turmoil.

Hau Lung-bin also said that now everyone is using Ko Wen-je's past statements to test him, and Ko must face the boomerang. He bluntly stated that Ko Wen-je is a failed politician, and that there are certainly problems with the King's Park case. The results of the prosecutors' and investigators' talks with the Urban Planning Commission and the city government are very clear, and whoever makes the decision will be responsible.

Hau Lung-bin lamented that Ko Wen-je has become a liability to the People's Party rather than an asset. He stressed that the Blue and White parties must of course cooperate, but if the People's Party is still a one-man party of Ko Wen-je, not only will it be difficult for the Blue and White parties to cooperate, but the People's Party may also become a bubble.

Ko Wen-je is caught up in the financial crisis and the Jinghuacheng case, which has severely damaged his support. In an interview, Hsu Hung-ting, a member of the Central Standing Committee of the Kuomintang and a Taipei City Councillor, said that the Kuomintang still regards the People's Party as a friend of the opposition coalition. Lien Sheng-wen, the vice chairman of the Kuomintang, said that he would not add insult to injury. The Kuomintang hopes that Ko Wen-je will explain the controversy to his supporters himself so as to continue to maintain his opposition power.

Xu Hongting said that whether the KMT fully supports the People's Party is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the KMT still regards the People's Party as a friend. From the perspective of the opposition party, it is still hoped that Ko Wen-je can explain the controversy to the supporters of the People's Party. Only Ko knows his own affairs and can explain himself. As an ally, the KMT will do its best to remind the supporters.
