Former Taoyuan Mayor and current chairman of the Mainland Affairs Council Zheng Wencan is suspected of corruption and accepting bribes, leading to his detention by the Taoyuan District Prosecutor's Office. This situation has sparked discussions with Wang Hongwei suggesting that the internal struggle within the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) is escalating as former Premier Lai Ching-te struggles to demonstrate achievements and is diverting attention by targeting corruption to undermine political rivals. Wang emphasizes the need for a fair investigation, especially due to the involvement of billions of dollars in land development cases related to Zheng's tenure as mayor. The unfolding events, including the arrest method, have raised questions about a potential conflict between Lai's faction and President Tsai's faction, creating a political drama of great interest to the public.
