The latest opinion poll released by the Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation on June 18, 2024, shows a significant drop in President Lai Ching-te's support within less than a month of taking office, from over 50% last month to less than 50%, decreasing by 9.8%, signaling a formidable challenge in public opinion for President Lai. Lawmakers criticize Lai for his confrontational nature, focusing on political struggles and election activities rather than substantive economic and social issues, potentially leading to a new low in his support. Concerns are raised about the government's handling of issues such as low wages, high housing prices, technology, and energy, with calls for a reassessment of energy policies including nuclear energy development, amid perceived lack of innovative solutions by the government.
