The Minister of Economic Affairs, Guo Zhihui, sparked controversy by suggesting that cheaper electricity does not always lead to better outcomes as it could result in wastage. This statement was met with criticism from opposition party members, questioning if this is a preemptive measure for a price increase in October. The discussion highlighted issues related to electricity consumption in different sectors and raised concerns about the stability and competitiveness of Taiwan's energy supply in light of past power outages and the need to attract foreign investments in sectors like semiconductor and AI industries.
