Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Legislator Wu Yu-sheng (吳育昇), who is close to Ma, shrugged off the DPP’s criticism, saying Ma was simply “elaborating” on his policy of “no unification with China, no independence and no use of force.”
‘REAFFIRMING POLICY’
“Ma proposed the policy during his presidential campaign and after he won the election,” Wu said. “President Ma was simply reaffirming the policy, which was aimed at stabilizing the nation.
“He has not contradicted himself,” Wu said.
KMT Legislator Lo Shu-lei (羅淑蕾) said the independence versus unification debate was moot.
“We should not talk about unification with China or about seeking independence at the moment. It is more important for everyone to focus on how to boost the economy,” Lo said.
