Hsiao Hsiu-cen, Executive Director of the Ma Ying-jeou Foundation, expressed concerns regarding President Lai Ching-te's speech at the Army Cadet School, suggesting a tendency towards seeking war while the people need a president who avoids war instead of initiating it. Hsiao pointed out that the 'first battle is final battle' concept came from a defense policy institute report during Tsai Ing-wen's presidency, focusing on mainland China's strategic goal for winning wars. Hsiao criticized Lai for prioritizing personal Taiwan independence beliefs over national interests. He emphasized the importance of peace and prosperity for the people, urging leaders to avoid provocation and confusion, and to prioritize peaceful and prosperous times for the citizens.
