taiwan people's party chairman ko wen-je was detained and denied access to visitors due to his involvement in the jinghuacheng case. the taiwan public opinion foundation released the latest poll, which showed that 40% of the public believed that ko wen-je received a fair trial in the jinghuacheng case, while 26% disagreed. regarding whether there was political persecution, about 29% generally agreed that the ko case was political persecution by lai ching-te's administration, but as many as 55% disagreed.

according to this poll, regarding the question of whether the ko case received a fair trial by the court, the results found that 40.3% said they had, 26.4% did not, 12% found it difficult to say, and 21.4% did not know or refused to answer.

you ying-lung, chairman of the taiwan public opinion foundation, analyzed that this finding conveys two messages. one is that taiwanese society has different views on whether ko received a fair trial in the court, but most people believe that he received a fair trial. the other is that 26% of people believe that ko did not receive a fair trial. in taiwan, one percentage point is about 195,000 people, and 26% means that more than 5 million people are dissatisfied with the ko case. this is not a phenomenon that can be ignored.

as for the question of whether the ko case was political persecution, the survey showed that 9.8% strongly agreed, 18.8% somewhat agreed, 30.1% disagreed, 24.5% disagreed at all, 9.6% had no opinion, and 7.1% did not know or refused to answer.

you ying-lung said that mainstream public opinion in taiwan does not believe that the ko case is political persecution by the lai ching-te administration, but 29% of people believe that the ko case is political persecution, which means that the people's party's tragic appeal has aroused a certain degree of social resonance, and a new and considerable political conflict has taken shape.
