Political analyst Lin Tao pointed out on July 8, 2024, that Mayor Cheng Wen-tsan received a 'gift' on his 57th birthday because he made 3 major mistakes, possibly crossing a line with President Lai Ching-te. Lin Tao highlighted that Cheng's involvement in a land reclassification case from 7 years ago was investigated just now, suggesting political motives. It's speculated that Lai Ching-te might see Cheng as a threat to his re-election in 2028. Cheng's resignation might pave the way for a more acceptable candidate aligned with all DPP factions. Lin Tao suggested, 'Lai Ching-te has long prepared the script.'
