Recently, there has been a growing controversy over the use of priority seats on public transportation in Taiwan, with some advocating for their abolishment due to conflicts arising between different age groups over seat usage. The Chinese National Federation of Elderly Welfare Secretary General, Zhang Shuqing, opposes this view, stating that priority seats should be maintained as they are not solely for the elderly but for specific needs, such as pregnant women or young people with physical discomfort. Zhang emphasizes the importance of educating the public about expressing their needs on public transportation and encouraging support for those in need. The controversy continues with differing opinions on whether priority seats should be abolished or kept to cater to hidden needs.
