Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je has once again caused a stir with his words. DPP Legislator Tuan Yi-kang recently said that Ko is like Kaohsiung Mayor Han Kuo-yu, but better at taking tests. Ko responded to the comment, asking whether President Tsai Ing-wen is also like Han, but only worse at taking exams, and whether Secretary-General Chen Chu is just a fatter version of Han. Ko did not respond to media reports on him being out of line. He did apologized for spilling the beans on supermodel Lin Chi-ling being pregnant.


Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je has once again caused a stir with his words. During a recent interview, Ko spilled the beans on supermodel Lin Chi-ling being pregnant. His words have since drawn criticism from many who said he breached the trust as a former doctor and that he might have violated the Physicians Act by releasing the secret of a patient. When members of the media pressed on, Ko apologized for the matter.

Honestly, I think my gender equality education is inadequate. (Will you apologize?) (Tell Lin Chi-ling about it?) Okay, I'll apologize for the matter. (Are you worried that your words could have damaged NTU Hospital's reputation?) No. This has nothing to do with the hospital.

After he apologized to Lin, members of the media asked Ko about a recent statement by the DPP Legislator Tuan Yi-kang, who said in a Facebook post that Ko is just like Han Kuo-yu, except being better at taking exams. In his response to the statement, Ko criticized President Tsai Ing-wen and Secretary-General Chen Chu.

(According to Tuan's logic), isn't President Tsai just like Han Kuo-yu but the version of who is not good at taking exams? Isn't Secretary-General Chen Chu a fatter version of Han? (Mr. Mayor, have you gone a bit overboard?) If the New Tide faction (in the ruling DPP) wants to start a war, I'll fight it to the end.

Ko's remarks have reminded some of the words from KMT Chairperson Wu Den-yih, who came under fire for joking about Chen Chu's physical shape. Wu is currently busy trying to get all party members to fall in line. However, the camp of KMT member and former Foxconn CEO Terry Gou recently said that Gou will not meet with Wu before September 17, the deadline for registering as a presidential candidate. In his remarks, Wu hinted at Gou not being delivering on his words.

All five candidates have made such a promise that, only the one who wins in the KMT primary race can run for president, and we should all stay true to our words. (What do you do now that he won't be meeting with you before September 17?) We need to both agree on a meeting for that to happen.

Wu said that he has asked Deputy KMT Chair Hau Lung-pin to communicate with Gou in hopes for the meeting to take place at some point.



台北市長柯文哲又鬧出失言風波，日前接受媒體專訪，爆料台灣第一名模林志玲結婚懷孕，被各界撻伐，痛批柯文哲沒醫德，洩漏隱私也違反醫師法，在媒體追問下柯文哲終於鬆口說抱歉。

台北市長 柯文哲表示：「老實講我性平教育還是不及格。（要道歉嗎？跟林志玲講一下？) 好啦！該抱歉，就抱歉。（你是怕害到台大醫院？) 不會啦這跟台大沒關。

柯文哲才剛道歉完，被媒體問到民進黨立委段宜康在臉書PO文柯文哲是比較會考試的韓國瑜，沒想到柯文哲竟然語出驚人，接連把蔡英文跟陳菊都給拉下水。

台北市長 柯文哲表示：「那小英是比較不會考試韓國瑜，陳菊是比較肥韓國瑜嗎？（市長這是失言嗎？) 你們新潮流要打，我一定跟你對打，我跟你講。」

柯文哲接二連三失言，不免讓人想起吳敦義先前也因嘲諷陳菊身材，引發軒然大波，如今為了國民黨整合，讓吳敦義傷透腦筋，但就在郭台銘陣營釋出17日前，恐怕無法吳郭會消息後，讓吳敦義忍不住暗批郭台銘沒信用。

國民黨主席 吳敦義表示：「如果沒有勝出就不會競選，這是在進行全民調初選前，彼此都有這樣承諾，每個人都應該守信用。（那他現在不見你怎麼辦？) 見不見要雙方都同意才能見。」

吳敦義強調會請副主席郝龍斌繼續溝通，如果有誠意，不管是晚一天或晚一週見面都沒關係。
