taiwan leader lai ching-te has recently been exposed to "frequent incidents of outrage". in addition to his previous call to scold peng qiming, the head of taiwan's environmental authorities, he believed that taiwan's environmental authorities did not provide enough resources for medical institutions to implement carbon reduction; later, because of the taiwan military the general sat without standing up to pay his respects, and angrily commented, "how can soldiers not know etiquette?" this triggered heated discussions among the outside world. however, kuomintang citizen xie longjie, who is familiar with lai qingde, believes that lai was scolding the taiwan military generals on the surface at the time, but he was actually scolding gu lixiong, the head of taiwan's defense department. he also predicted that when lai has established a pipeline with the united states, gu lixiong will almost step down. this time may fall after the beginning of next spring. some public opinion also believes that lai may consider personnel adjustments at the end of the year. the "tsai family army" (referring to the people of former taiwan leader tsai ing-wen) or officials left behind by the "previous dynasty" may be the first wave of candidates to be replaced.

gu lixiong said in an interview yesterday (1st) that lai qingde sympathized with the hard work of taiwan's officers and soldiers and hoped to communicate with the promoted generals, so he arranged a tea ceremony in august. this was the first time we had a tea talk, and the relevant procedures were not clearly communicated beforehand. therefore, lai qingde reminded taiwan military soldiers on the etiquette on the spot. gu lixiong said that the subsequent tea talks were smooth and successful, and there was no insult or throwing things to establish authority. he hoped that everyone would not spread rumors.

xie longjie called gu lixiong "that's you". he believed that lai qingde was scolding the taiwan military general on the surface that day, but in fact he was scolding gu lixiong, because it was gu who was the head of taiwan's defense department who "took the lead." xie longjie said that it is impossible for soldiers to fail to salute when they see their superiors. someone must have given relevant orders.

xie longjie also pointed out that during tsai ing-wen’s second term, lai qingde, then deputy leader of the taiwan region, had a bad relationship with many high-level officials in tsai ing-wen’s administration, including gu lixiong. after lai took office, it was a helpless move to appoint gu lixiong as the head of taiwan's defense department, and it was due to us factors. but when lai has established a good channel with the united states, gu will almost step down. this time may fall after the beginning of next spring.

in addition, qiu taiyuan, the head of taiwan's health authorities, recently broke the news that lai qingde called peng qiming for the hospital's net-zero carbon reduction. although qiu has apologized and emphasized that the inappropriate choice of words caused misunderstanding, the two of them shared the stage for the first time after the incident, but had zero interaction throughout the process. some commentators pointed out that qiu taiyuan's revelations have sown a rift with lai qingde. if lai makes the first wave of personnel adjustments after taking office, qiu is likely to be replaced.

it is understood that during the question break time of taiwan's public opinion organization, lai qingde's favorite "cabinet members", including taiwan's economic department head guo zhihui, environmental department head peng qiming, legal affairs department head zheng mingqian and others chatted happily in the democratic progressive party. qiu taiyuan, who is regarded as a "british" person, did not have a relatively active interaction with the above-mentioned "cabinet members". therefore, if lai makes personnel adjustments at the end of the year, officials left behind by the "cai jiajun" or the "previous dynasty" may be replaced.

comments also pointed out that after taking office, lai ching-te continued to use "british" personnel. in addition to gu lixiong, wu zhaoxie served as "secretary-general of the taiwan security council" and tsai ming-yan served as "security director" to consolidate relations with the united states. as the united states will hold an election in november and a new president will take office, lai is likely to take advantage of the situation and replace the "british" personnel in taiwan's security agencies and establish his own personnel to communicate with the united states.(straits herald taiwan reporter lin jingxian)
