[周刊王CTWANT] Kuomintang presidential candidate Hou Youyi held a press conference on the 4th, “Public opinion is boiling! May I ask Lai Qingde, where is the campus safety and judicial justice that the people want?” Hou Youyi said that President Tsai Ing-wen and Democratic Progressive Party vice presidential candidate Xiao Meiqin both advocated the abolition of death. He asked DPP presidential candidate Lai Qingde at the debate whether he advocated abolition of death or opposed abolition of death. Lai avoided the problem and did not dare to face it directly, but he still asked Lai Qingde to give a definite answer.

Hou Youyi pointed out that the Ma government executed 33 death sentences in 8 years, while the Tsai government executed only 2 in 8 years. Tsai Ing-wen and Xiao Meiqin both strongly advocated the abolition of death penalty. Does Lai Qingde advocate the abolition of death penalty? Will the death penalty be carried out in accordance with the law?

Hou Youyi said that he clearly opposes the abolition of death penalty and will execute the death penalty in accordance with the law after all procedures are completed. This is his attitude and will never be delayed. Ask Lai Ching-te to answer “Do you support or oppose the abolition of the death penalty?” Before Lai Ching-te makes a clear stance, he will ask this question every day. This is a clear explanation that a national leader must give to the people.

Democratic Progressive Party presidential candidate Lai Ching-te went to Taoyuan to visit Guishan on the 4th to gather incense and build momentum. When Lai Ching-de accepted a joint interview, the media finally asked his KMT opponent Hou Youyi to express his opinion on the abolition of death penalty. However, the question had just been asked and before he finished speaking, Lai’s staff Immediately stating that the joint visit was over, Lai did not answer, turned around and left to continue his journey.

KMT vice-presidential candidate Zhao Shaokang said yesterday that he cannot decide whether to abolish the death penalty as a presidential power. It depends on what KMT presidential candidate Hou Youyi thinks. However, the Minister of Justice must execute the death penalty in accordance with the law, otherwise it will be illegal. In the future, if Hou Kang is elected, The Justice Minister you are looking for will first ask if you agree with the execution of the death penalty. “Some people will not be willing, so don’t be the Justice Minister.”

Zhao Shaokang said that he asked the DPP to take a stand on the issue of abolition every day, but the Green Camp did not take a stand when it should. Instead, they made random statements, such as DPP presidential candidate Lai Qingde’s hometown was illegally built, and when Lai was a legislator, he put pressure on the then president. Wang Huipo, director of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Department, and other matters were not explained clearly.
