Within a month of President Lai Ching-te taking office, he announced the establishment of 3 major committees, a departure from past presidents and a move to bridge the communication gap between government and society. Kuomintang Legislator Niu Hsu-ting suggested that Lai's move indicates dissatisfaction with the current situation, highlighting distrust towards Ko Wen-je and recognizing Premier Su Tseng-chang's difficulties. Niu criticized the government's ineffectiveness due to legislative brawls, mainly led by DPP caucus convener Ko. The committees, focusing on climate change, health Taiwan, and national defense, reveal Lai's acknowledgment of the communication challenges and tensions within the DPP. Niu also questioned the oversight of the committees by the Legislative Yuan and the implications of conflicting policies between the two bodies.
