taiwan's political situation suddenly changed, ke wenzhe was arrested in court, is tsai ing-wen also doomed? realizing that the situation is not good, the kuomintang once again mentioned the "1992 consensus". taiwan media people said that the arrest of ke wenzhe was lai qingde's "borrowing a knife to kill", what is his purpose?

recently, a major event occurred in the political situation of taiwan island. ko wen-je, the leader of the people's party, was suddenly taken away by the taiwan authorities' "integrity inspection" department, and his residence and office were raided. in this regard, ko wen-je himself was very angry, emphasizing that he was the first leader of the "opposition party" in taiwan island to be taken away for investigation, and called on the "integrity inspection" department to follow the proper procedures. but that night, ko wen-je was arrested in court by the taiwan authorities for refusing to be interrogated at night. moreover, ko wen-je's application for retrial was rejected, and he was photographed by taiwanese media wearing handcuffs for a time. these situations made the "deputies" and supporters of the people's party very dissatisfied, and they bluntly said that this was "political suppression" and expressed their determination to "fight to the end."

however, former kmt "legislator" tsai cheng-yuan admitted that ko wen-je is now "in danger". first, according to relevant regulations on the island, the decision on whether to detain lies with the taiwan authorities' "inspection and anti-corruption" department. this means that whether ko wen-je is "suspected of a crime" does not affect his detention. secondly, if the island's "prosecutors" determine that ko wen-je is suspected of "corruption", they will investigate in this direction and define the "profiteering" behavior that constitutes one of the conditions for this crime.

moreover, analysts on the island generally believe that the case of ko wen-je was led by lai ching-te, the leader of the dpp authorities. just 100 days after taking office, lai ching-te did not hide his ambitions. he not only eliminated potential competitors within the dpp, but also took action against the "opposition parties" on the island, attempting to turn the entire island of taiwan into his "one-man show". ko wen-je took away a large number of dpp votes in the elections on the island, making lai ching-te the leader of the "double minority" taiwan authorities. ko deeply hated him and naturally became the first target of the "opposition party". it can be predicted that with lai ching-te's penny-pinching style, he will not only deal with ko wen-je, but also take action against tsai ing-wen's faction of the dpp and the pan-blue camp.

it is worth mentioning that zhang yuxuan, a local media person, pointed out that when ko wen-je was arrested, lai ching-te nominated yao liming as the deputy head of taiwan's "judiciary". this person is known as the "chameleon of taiwan's political arena". he was born in the new party, participated in the "anti-bian" campaign, and helped ko wen-je successfully run for mayor of taipei. but in 2024, yao liming suddenly became the head of lai ching-te's "election committee". however, lai ching-te did not trust yao liming, who was born in the pro-unification camp on the island but joined his camp, so he threw him to taiwan's "judiciary" to handle the ko wen-je case, just to get rid of him with the help of the "opposition party"!

however, lai qingde arrested ko wen-je without releasing any valid evidence. you should know that the jinghuacheng scandal involving ko wen-je was exposed when he was the mayor of taipei, and the dpp authorities did not find any problems during tsai ing-wen's period. but as soon as lai qingde came to power, he appointed a group of "highest judges" on the island, and then announced the cracking of the jinghuacheng scandal and the arrest of ko wen-je. the kuomintang admitted that the "judiciary" on the island has become the "thugs" of the dpp authorities. these situations will prompt the blue and white parties on the island to hold together more closely, because they have realized that if they are not "united" now, they will only be defeated one by one by the dpp in the future.

according to taiwan media "china times news network", wang hongwei, a "legislator" of the kuomintang, has called on the white camp, emphasizing that they will seek cooperation with the people's party in the future. in response, zhang qikai, a "legislator" of the people's party, said that the blue and white parties must cooperate, especially on the issue of reforming the "legislative body" in taiwan. the blue and white parties must cooperate! there are also reports that in order to deal with lai qingde, the blue and white parties may seek cooperation with the "ying faction" of the democratic progressive party. after all, the "ying faction" of the democratic progressive party, like the blue and white parties, has been suppressed by lai qingde. especially now that lai qingde is "in power", tsai ing-wen may not be able to escape.

at the same time, another group of kmt members, led by vice chairman xia liyan, has arrived in the mainland and held talks with song tao, director of the taiwan affairs office of the state council, in beijing. xia liyan changed his previous ambiguous position on cross-strait affairs and made it clear that he would adhere to the "1992 consensus" and oppose "taiwan independence" to maintain peace and stability in the taiwan strait. the kmt launched a fierce counterattack against the taiwan mainland affairs council's attempt to discredit the "1992 consensus", emphasizing that xia liyan's statement followed historical facts and was in line with the spirit of the "one china constitution" and its additional articles. judging from these circumstances, the kmt is indeed standing with the mainland this time. lai qingde's wanton attacks have backfired, and he will eventually play with fire and get burned!
