President Lai Ching-te emphasized at the centennial celebration of the Military Academy that he cannot accept surrendering in the first battle, prompting a response from Ma Ying-jeou Foundation's CEO Hsiao Hsü-chen, who stated that Lai's speech indicates a tendency towards seeking war, whereas what the people need is a president who avoids war, not one who incites it. Hsiao mentioned that 'Surrendering in the First Battle' was a report from the Defense Policy Research Institute during President Tsai Ing-wen's era, highlighting mainland China's strategic goal of winning wars. The response criticized Lai for prioritizing his personal Taiwan independence will over national interests and people's well-being, urging for peace and prosperity instead of edging towards war.
