民調檢視蔡施政週年!維護國人健康不及格


蔡英文總統連任即將滿一週年,中國國民黨將推出以民調檢視蔡施政週年的系列記者會,公布最新民意趨向探究蔡英文的執政表現。今(14)日首場「民調檢視蔡施政週年!維護國人健康不及格」記者會,文傳會王育敏主委、革實院羅智強院長、黃子哲副主委、鄭照新副主委等出席,針對萊豬進口、國軍吃進口豬、新冠肺炎疫苗取得等政策公布民調結果,民眾普遍不滿意蔡政府的表現,凸顯蔡總統在維護國人健康的施政成績完全不及格。


根據國民黨委託TVBS民調中心的最新調查,近7成(69.6%)民眾不贊成政府開放含萊劑豬肉進口,其中「非常不贊成」的高達46.6%,足證台灣人民對於蔡政府不顧人民健康,執意進口危害國人食安的萊豬政策,感到十分不滿與憤怒。進一步交叉分析,民進黨支持者中,有將近4成5(44.7%)反對萊豬進口,無政黨傾向的民眾中也有高達近7成(68.5%)反對萊豬進口。而根據媒體報導的民進黨內部民調,62.8%民眾表示不能接受萊豬進口,顯然蔡總統開放萊豬進口是項錯誤政策已經是台灣不分朝野的全民共識。


即便蔡政府宣示會做好「清楚標示、嚴格稽查」,但日前爆發國軍副食使用進口豬則重重打臉蔡政府,國民黨表示,國防部原先堅持優先使用國產豬,卻被發現部隊食用的加工食品中採用進口豬肉,不僅徒增部隊的食安風險,更重要是行政部門的信用完全破功。從最新民調可以看出,高達71.8%的民眾擔心無法分辨進口豬肉做成的加工品;交叉分析後,民進黨支持者中,也有超過5成表示會擔心(50.4%),而無政黨傾向的民眾有將近7成(69.6%)表示會擔心。國民黨認為,最主要是因為政府的「清楚標示」無法獲得人民的信任,政府的「嚴格稽查」無法讓人民安心,如果連國防部都可以破壞「優先使用國產豬」承諾,讓國軍弟兄吃到進口豬肉,人民如何能相信蔡政府的宣示、保證?


至於中選會今天將召開委員會審議已通過連署查對的三項公投案,國民黨也公布民調顯示,今年8月28日公投日,超過6成(61.4%)的民眾表達會去投票,其中,「一定會去」的民眾高達近4成(39.4%),不會去投票的僅22.7%。國民黨表示,足證人民展現高度的自決意識,面對蔡政府接連的錯誤決策,決定以自己手中的選票來表達維護自身健康、權利與保護環境的意志。


其次,國內新冠肺炎疫情延燒,繼華航機師、諾富特群聚風暴之後,不斷再爆發新增感染源不明的本土確診病例,台灣進入社區感染階段,也讓我國疫苗覆蓋率低的問題暴露無遺。根據最新民調結果,超過5成(54.1%)民眾對於政府取得足夠全國民眾施打的新冠肺炎疫苗表達沒有信心。相較於TVBS三月中旬所做的民調,民眾沒有信心的比例,從39%躍升為54.1%。顯然民眾對於「疫苗大內宣」卻始終「不見彈」的結果已經漸感不耐,如今發生社區群聚事件,民眾對於取得足夠疫苗的盼望更為深刻。


國民黨表示,疫情爆發前期,台灣靠著邊境防堵、國人自發戴口罩、勤洗手的良好習慣,防堵疫情擴散,但隨著疫情延燒不止,政府「應作為」的運用快篩、採購疫苗等進一步防疫措施卻「毫無作為」,導致台灣再度引爆疫情危機。國民黨強調,全球疫苗接種率領先的以色列、美英等國家,都慢慢從嚴重的疫情中走出來,更力拚今年夏天完全解封,讓民眾回歸平常的生活;反觀國內,迄今疫苗僅到貨30萬劑,後續的疫苗遙遙無期。


國民黨質疑,蔡總統宣稱「疫苗會陸續到位」,但具體時程很含糊、採購源頭不多元、國內研發進度慢,顯然蔡的信心喊話很難獲得多數民意認同。若國家元首都無法給民眾明確的宣示,讓國人如何對未來能獲得足夠且有選擇性的疫苗有信心?


總結而論,國民黨指出,已非新手的蔡政府過去一年的施政表現卻宛如新手上路;不顧民意蠻橫地開放萊豬;產地標示管理未周全;疫情管控故步自封,不願普篩;疫苗採購效率低落,國民黨強調,開放萊豬、疫情管控等議題皆是攸關人民健康的基本施政,若一個政府連最基本的國人健康安全都無法捍衛、無法保護,這個政府已實應被民意所淘汰。


此次民調為國民黨委託TVBS民調中心於今年5月4日至5月10日進行,以市內電話號碼後兩碼隨機抽樣,電話訪問20歲以上台灣民眾;有效樣本1,065份,於95%信心水準下,抽樣誤差為正負3.0個百分點以內。








Latest Poll Shows Tsai’s Failure in Safeguarding Public Health

President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) is approaching the first anniversary of her re-election. The Kuomintang (KMT) will launch a series of press conferences to examine Tsai’s anniversary based on public opinion polls with the latest public opinions to review Tsai Ing-wen’s performance. According to the results of public opinion polls regarding the importation of US pork containing ractopamine residue, the national army’s consumption of such imported pork, and the acquisition of Covid-19 vaccines, the public is generally dissatisfied with the performance of the Tsai government, highlighting that President Tsai’s governance measures in safeguarding the public health have completely failed.

According to the latest survey conducted by the TVBS polling center commissioned by the Kuomintang, nearly 70% (69.6%) of the people disapprove of the government's liberalization of pork imports containing ractopamine while 46.6% "strongly disagree", which proves that the people of Taiwan are very dissatisfied with the Tsai government, as the administration disregards the people's health by insisting on importing ractopamine-pork that endangers food safety. In further analysis, among Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) supporters, nearly 45 percent (44.7%) oppose the importation of “ractopamine-pork”, and nearly 70 percent (68.5%) of people without party orientation oppose the imports as well. According to the DPP’s internal poll results reported by the media, 62.8% of those surveyed said that they could not accept the import of ractopamine-pork. Obviously, President Tsai’s policy of opening up ractopamine-pork imports is an incorrect policy, which is the consensus of the people in Taiwan regardless of party affiliation.

Even if the Tsai government announced that it would enforce "clear labeling and strict inspections," the recently released news that the armed forces used imported pork for non-staple food has hit the Tsai government heavily. The KMT stated that the Ministry of National Defense had originally insisted on giving priority to the use of domestic pork, but imported pork was found to be used in processed food by the military. The use of imported pork in food not only increases the risk of food safety in the army, but more importantly, the credibility of the administrative department is completely undermined. It can be seen from the latest polls that up to 71.8% of the people are worried about not being able to distinguish processed products made from imported pork; after cross-analysis, more than 50% of DPP supporters also said they were concerned (50.4%), and nearly 70% (69.6%) of independent voters said that they were worried. According to the KMT, the main problem is that the government’s “clear labeling” declaration has not gained the trust of the people, and the government’s “strict inspections” do not reassure the people either. If even the Ministry of National Defense can break its promise of “prioritizing the use of domestic pork”, how can people trust the announcements and guarantees from the Tsai government?

For the three upcoming referendums, the Kuomintang also published a poll result showing that on the referendum day slated on August 28 this year, more than 60% (61.4%) of the people will cast votes. Among them, nearly 40% (39.4%) will ‘‘absolutely’’ vote, and only 22.7% will not vote. The Kuomintang stated that this proves that the people have demonstrated a high degree of self-determination. Faced with the successive wrong decisions made by the Tsai administration, people have decided to use their votes to express their will to protect their health and rights as well as the environment.

Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic has started to spread domestically, with many local confirmed cases of unknown sources of infection continuing to erupt. Taiwan has entered the stage of community infection, which also exposed the problem of low vaccine coverage in the country. According to the results of the latest polls, more than 50% (54.1%) of the people express no confidence that the government can obtain enough new Covid-19 vaccines for people across the country. Compared with the TVBS poll conducted in mid-March, the percentage of people who are not confident has jumped from 39% to 54.1%. Now that there is a community infection problem in Taiwan, the people have higher expectations for sufficient vaccines.

The KMT stated that in the early stage of the Covid-19 pandemic, Taiwan relied on successful border prevention, spontaneous wearing of masks, and frequent hand washing to prevent the spread of the virus. However, as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to spread, the government did not implement the use of rapid screening and seek the procurement of vaccines, leading to another outbreak of the pandemic crisis in Taiwan. The KMT emphasized that countries such as Israel, the United States, and the United Kingdom, which have the world’s leading vaccination rates, are slowly recovering from serious pandemic conditions, and are striving to completely open their borders this summer so that the people can return to their normal lives. On the other hand, in Taiwan, only 300,000 doses of vaccines have arrived so far, and the future purchase of vaccines is nowhere in sight.

The Kuomintang questions the credibility of President Tsai’s declaration that "vaccines will be in place one after another." However, the specific schedule is very vague, the source of procurement is not diverse, and the progress of domestic research and development is slow. Obviously, Tsai's confident announcement can hardly be believed by the majority of the public. If the head of state cannot give the people a credible response, how can people be confident that they will be able to obtain sufficient vaccines with a variety of options in the future?

In summary, the Kuomintang pointed out that the government's performance in the past year seems like a novice in power. The government has arbitrarily allowed the importation of ractopamine-pork regardless of public opinion, and the labeling of origin is not well managed. The measures taken in Covid-19 pandemic control are limited, with the government unwilling to generalize screening. Moreover, the purchase of vaccines has been extremely inefficient. The Kuomintang emphasized that issues such as the opening up of ractopamine-pork and the control of the pandemic are basic policies related to the health of the people. If a government cannot defend and protect public health and safety, this government should step aside based on public opinion.
