During a DPP event promoting 'Anti-Arbitrary Power, Protect Democracy' in Taipei, heavy rain unexpectedly hit the area causing the last-minute removal of the canopy meant to shelter speakers on stage. Legislators and attendees, including a pregnant legislator, ended up soaked while giving speeches. Criticism was directed at the Taipei DPP branch chair for being perceived as sentimental by claiming that braving the rain showed determination. Netizens expressed displeasure at the decision to remove the canopy and voiced concerns for the health of the legislators, particularly the pregnant one, while urging a more thoughtful approach to event planning.
