President Lai Ching-te has officially announced the constitutional interpretation against parliamentary reform, reminiscent of his 232-day absence from the council while serving as mayor in 2015, which resulted in a Dengue fever outbreak and over a hundred deaths. Criticized by Taiwanese councilors for disrespecting the Constitution, Lai Ching-te's avoidance of parliamentary duties and pushback against reform is likened to an evolved version of 'Not Attending Council 4.0'. Councilors highlight his focus on new committees instead of traditional presidential responsibilities, raising concerns about ulterior motives related to personal and party interests, as well as covering up corruption scandals within the ruling party.
