people's party chairman ko wen-je was involved in the jinghua city scandal. the taipei district court (hereinafter referred to as "the taipei district court") ruled on the 2nd that he should be released without bail. after the taipei district prosecutors' office (hereinafter referred to as "the taipei district court") appealed, the taiwan "high court" revoked the remand on the 4th. the taipei district court opened the trial at 9:30 am today (5th). in response, the people's party emergency response team held a press conference at around 10 a.m. and made a three-point statement, saying that the whole party should unite to defend ko wen-je's innocence, and at the same time protest against the lai ching-te administration's abuse of power in the investigation, allowing false information to guide the wind direction. people's party legislator huang kuo-chang also mentioned that no matter what the result of the taipei district court's ruling today is, ko wen-je is very calm and composed, knowing that this will be a "long-term battle."

the people's party emergency response team held a meeting at the people's party central headquarters. huang kuo-chang pointed out that in response to the current situation, the response team made three resolutions. first, unite and defend ko wen-je's innocence; second, the people's party public officials will continue to exert their maximum energy in their respective jobs and continue to serve taiwan. they also called on the "little grass" (young supporters of the people's party) to work hard and live a normal life; third, protest against the lai ching-te administration's abuse of power in investigations, allowing false information to guide the wind direction, and injustice eroding taiwan.

huang kuo-chang said that since the lai ching-te administration launched a legal pursuit against ko wen-je last friday, ko wen-je has been very clear that this will be a "long-term battle." the political attacks and legal pursuits against ko wen-je will not stop with today's results, but will continue, so ko wen-je and the public officials of the people's party know the challenges they will face next.

at the same time, huang kuo-chang also raised questions. at the beginning, it was said that the case to be handled was ko wen-je's jinghua city case, but what appeared in the media today was the political donation case. "may i ask what case will be used to handle ko wen-je in the political donation case? it will not be surprising if a third case appears next. what logic does the northern district prosecutors office use to handle the case? so far, i have only seen one logic from the northern district prosecutors office, from case a, case b to case c, and the goal is to lock up ko wen-je." huang kuo-chang emphasized that ko wen-je is very clear and has a firm opinion.(lin jingxian, strait herald reporter in taiwan)
