During a legislative inquiry session, DPP legislator Guo Guowen criticized low wages in Taiwan and urged Minister of Economic Affairs Guo Zhihui to take initiative in raising salaries by reaching out to business elites through the 'Three-Threes Club'. Premier Su Tseng-chang then pledged to not only engage with this club but also communicate with the six major business organizations. The discussion highlighted concerns about low wages and the need for businesses to share their profits with employees to attract and retain talent, with comparisons to Japan's wage increases and the challenge of high living costs in Taiwan despite multiple adjustments to the minimum wage under the Tsai Ing-wen administration.
