huang kuo-chang, a legislator of the taiwan people's party, revealed that from june 11 to august 11, the total electricity consumption of the official residence of the head of the taiwan executive yuan, zhuo rongtai (a dormitory provided to officials), was 19,360 kwh, with an electricity bill of more than 150,000 yuan. in response, zhuo rongtai said in an interview on the 24th that he was only in the official residence for two days a week after the end of june, and his family was not in the official residence. the increase in electricity consumption was abnormal, and he would ask the power company to check if there was any problem with the electrical appliances.

huang kuo-chang said in a live broadcast on the evening of the 23rd that since zhuo rongtai took office two months ago, the total electricity consumption of his official residence has reached 19,360 kwh, with an electricity bill of about 150,000 yuan. he asked zhuo rongtai, "are you mining bitcoin in there?"

the head of the taiwan authorities' economic department, guo zhihui, was recently criticized for calling on the public to save electricity and blurted out "no need to install air conditioners in every room". he later changed his words to "don't turn on the air conditioners when there is no one in the room". huang kuo-chang bluntly said that he would "ask guo zhihui to comment on zhuo rongtai's electricity use in the official residence." guo zhihui, do you dare to comment? do you dare to say that zhuo rongtai is wrong? "you, guo zhihui, only dare to teach ordinary people, and you dare not say a word to zhuo rongtai, the real big electricity user. this is my evaluation of you, guo zhihui!"

in response to this, zhuo rongtai said on the morning of the 24th that the official residence had not been used after may 20, and meetings were held in the official residence only after it was renovated in late june. as for him personally, in late june and early july, he would only use the official residence two days a week due to the time of the next morning, and his family did not use the official residence for any purpose.

zhuo rongtai said that the increase in electricity consumption is abnormal. compared with last year, it increased by 3,700 kwh from april to june and 3,900 kwh from june to august. he will ask the power company to check if there are any problems with the electrical appliances. he will also further review the official residence security and what colleagues must do to save electricity, just like ordinary people.
