Taipei’s Mayor, Chiang Wan-an, recently proposed shutting down Songshan Airport to build an AI park in the city. KMT legislator, Hsu Chiao-hsin, scheduled a special hearing at the Legislative Yuan today on the matter. She started off by criticizing Puma Shen for being absent, as he was on a radio program. Even though Shen rushed over immediately after the interview, Hsu made a sarcastic comment that being late is better than not being there at all. DPP legislator Wang Yi-chuan could not tolerate this any longer and had a verbal argument with Hsu on the spot.
KMT legislator Hsu Chiao-hsin and DPP legislator Wang Yi-chuan got into a heated argument. Hsu, a member of the National Defense Committee, arranged a special hearing on the relocation of Songshan Airport, and had to extend the registration time for speaking for Puma Shen’s sake, who was attending Jaw Shau-kong’s radio program.
Hsu Chiao-hsin
Legislator (KMT)
I think we should extend the speech registration time to noon to prevent any legislators from losing an opportunity to express their concerns. That, I think would be a pity.
From the presentation of the case to speeches, Hsu was coming for Shen, and even left a comment under Jaw’s live broadcast telling Shen to come back to work after the interview. Shen’s interview finished at 10 and he arrived at the National Defense committee and registered to speak by 10:25. But Hsu still made a fuss about it.
- Better late than never.
- Its hilarious. That’s how the KMT is, making comments about something.
Puma Shen
Legislator (DPP)
I think Hsu Chiao-hsin is a very warm person, and even left a message saying the registration could be extended. Just now, when I wanted to ask a question at noon, she was taking a break so that we could have lunch. So, warm people can consider joining the O’Shen movement.
Shen spoke about the Songshan Airport proposal announced by the KMT’s Chiang Wan-an. Chiang’s party is now attacking Defense Minister Wellington Koo, who also proposed a relocation plan in 2014.
Chiang Wan-an
Taipei Mayor
When Minister Koo was running for Taipei Mayor, he suggested that once the Taoyuan Airport MRT was operational, then the future of Songshan Airport could be considered.
Puma Shen
Taipei Mayoral Candidate (DPP)
Proposing this 20 or 30 years ago and proposing things now is very different because the throughput is changing. Songshan Airport handles many domestic routes, including the special operations we just mentioned which are related to disaster prevention and medical evacuation.
Tung Tzu-hsien
Chairman of Pegatron
I’m not on board with the relocation of Songshan Airport. A major capital city should have its own small to medium-sized transportation hub.
The proposition of relocating Songshan Airport has become an extensive issue in the Taipei mayoral election.
