♣ news / BBC (2024-5-19, interviews with Tsai Ing-wen ): Domestically, Tsai Ing-wen has been criticised for not doing enough for the economy – the rising cost of living, unaffordable housing and a lack of jobs cost her party young voters in January's election. And her biggest critics fear that she has made the island of 23 million more, rather than less, unsafe. The trickier job is to find allies who would risk irking the world's second largest economy.

(UK),
2021-9-15
:
Washington
keeps scolding Taipei over its supposed lack of preparation against an ever
mightier Beijing.
Even China's official media GT (

) mocks Tsai's weakness. "My sense was that they were afraid" : Congressman
Don Beyer (D-VA) returning from Taiwan said " they're feeling much closer to
conflict – a conflict they do not want.", according to RawStory (Aug. 2022).
Lai Ching-te takes up the mantle from his DPP predecessor
Tsai Ing-wen since May 20, 2024.
