Ko Wen-je defends longevity of nuclear power plants
Taipei mayoral candidate Ko Wen-je of the Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) argued that nuclear plants can be utilized for more than 30 to 60 years with proper planning. Ko criticized Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) candidate Lai Ching-te’s nuclear power policy, challenging the assertion that nuclear plants should be decommissioned after 30 years. Additionally, Ko criticized the current anti-fraud policies, specifically those implemented by Hou Yu-ih, stating that they were ineffective. Lai’s campaign office responded by asserting that a nuclear-free homeland is a widely agreed-upon consensus among citizens and questioned Ko and Hou’s lack of a clear plan for nuclear waste disposal.2023/12/27 16:32
