Relying on their majority in the legislature, they were never willing to make concessions but created political turmoil instead. And they tend to settle disputes and outnumber the ruling party through a count of hands, and the DPP was forced to suffer in silence.
I have waited for the opposition parties to do something constructive for over six months but I didn't get a positive response. So I decided that a national alliance for stability must be formed. This majority alliance is a process of gradual accumulation. There is not a question of when it will be activated.
For example, in February the DPP and the TSU combined had 103 votes, then we had 108 votes at the showdown on the reconsideration of the Law Governing the Allocation of Government Revenues and Expenditures (財劃法) and 113 votes for the confirmation vote for the president of the Examination Yuan.
The formation of the alliance has been going on for a while.
TT: The media reported that you commented that the bond between the KMT and PFP is suicidal, but you denied that you've made such comments?
Chen: I was quoting the words of senior members from both parties. Binding the two parties together for the interests of a few people could possibly lead the KMT to a dead end.
It was a total misunderstanding and it was unjustified that the media would have made such reports and then elaborated on groundless speculation.
