「把民主還給台灣」 在野領袖峰會

今天這場在野領袖峰會，談論的議題很嚴肅，也很重要。促成我和朱立倫主席可以在很短的時間中坐下來直接對話，是人民的聲音，是更大的民主，是希望我們在國家面臨空前的危難時，能超越黨派。對內，政黨間可以有不同意見、彼此競爭，但，面對世界，我們必須要團結，只有一個聲音，支持台灣、支持台灣人。

面對美國高關稅政策的挑戰，我具體提出四點建議：

🗝公民社會及國會的事前、事中參與

🗝台美應簽訂自由貿易協定

🗝堅守底線，關稅不得高於主要競爭對手，例如：日本、韓國

🗝當民進黨沒有能力提衝擊影響評估時，在野黨合作建立平台，邀集地方縣市政府、學者專家、產業及勞工代表，共同持續進行「民間版衝擊影響評估」

當民進黨正事不做、心力全都放在國內找敵人時，在野黨肩負著人民的期待，必須捲起袖子立即行動。

當前台灣面臨的第二個重大危機，是賴清德想把台灣帶往專制獨裁，民主法治瀕臨瓦解。去年8月30日，賴清德政府所率領的檢調，搜索柯文哲主席與台灣民眾黨中央黨部，嗣後，透過黨檢媒三位一體，抹黑、抹紅、抹黃柯文哲，關押柯文哲迄今，就是為了摧毀台灣民眾黨。當時我們曾高聲呼籲「今日柯文哲，明日任何人」，之後也不幸逐一應驗。我們追求的司法正義，不是為了單一個人，而是屬於每一個台灣人，沒有一個人，應當遭受這樣的對待。

台灣民眾黨承諾，將透過修正《法院組織法》，推動法庭直播制度，讓陽光照進司法，才能讓司法體系中的違法濫權無所遁形；此外，我們也絕對不能再容忍民進黨的政客直接將手伸進司法，妨害司法公正罪這會期一定要三讀通過。

守住國會，發揮在野監督的力量，完成民進黨跳票的改革，才能遏止賴清德將台灣帶向專制獨裁的野心。

這塊土地，值得我們共同努力。

今天的這一場會談，它不僅只是一個逗點，而是行動的起點。行動一直都是台灣民眾黨的DNA，為了這個國家，為了這塊土地，為了台灣的人民，該行動的時候我們從不退卻。

我也相信透過勇敢的行動，我們可以在這一個黑暗的歷程當中，找到有光的方向，一起為台灣，為台灣人民開創新的希望。

Taiwan People's Party(TPP) Chairman Huang Kuo-chang(黃國昌) said in his social media post:

"Bring Democracy Back to Taiwan — Opposition Leaders Summit"

Today's Opposition Leaders Summit addressed critical and pressing issues facing our nation. The reason Chinese Nationalist Party(KMT) Chairman Eric Chu(朱立倫) and I were able to engage in direct dialogue in such a short timeframe lies in the will of the people—a collective call for greater democracy, unity, and a shared hope that transcends partisan boundaries during a time of national crisis.

While political parties may differ in ideology and compete within a democratic framework, we must speak with one voice when confronting the world. In moments of adversity, unity is not an option—it is a necessity. Our foremost responsibility is to support Taiwan and safeguard the well-being of its people.

In response to the challenges presented by the United States' high-tariff policies, I have proposed four concrete policy recommendations:

•Inclusive Decision-Making: Ensure the participation of civil society and the Legislative Yuan at both the preliminary and intermediate stages of trade negotiations.

• Bilateral Free-Trade Agreement: Advocate for the signing of a Taiwan–U.S. Free-Trade Agreement to deepen economic ties and reduce barriers.

• Competitive Tariff Benchmarks: Maintain tariff levels that do not exceed those of major competitors, such as Japan and South Korea.

• Civil Impact Assessment Platform: When the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) fails to provide transparent impact assessments, the opposition will establish an independent platform. This body will include local governments, academic experts, industry leaders, and labor representatives to conduct ongoing "civil versions" of impact assessments.

While the DPP focuses its energy on sowing division and labeling domestic adversaries, it has failed to fulfill its governance responsibilities. The opposition, bearing the expectations of the public, must take action immediately—with sleeves rolled up and resolve in our hearts.

Taiwan now faces another grave crisis: the drift toward authoritarianism under President William Lai. Democracy and the rule of law are under threat. On August 30 of last year, an investigative team under Lai's administration raided former Chairman  Ko Wen-je(柯文哲) and the Taiwan People's Party(TPP) headquarters. What followed was a coordinated smear campaign—driven by a triad of the ruling party, prosecutors, and media—designed to vilify, isolate, and detain Ko Wen-je, effectively aiming to dismantle the TPP.

At the time, we warned loudly: "Today it's Ko Wen-je; tomorrow it could be anyone.(今日柯文哲，明日任何人)" Unfortunately, those words have become reality. The judicial justice we pursue is not for a single individual—it is a universal right belonging to every Taiwanese citizen. No one should suffer such political persecution.

To restore integrity to our justice system, the Taiwan People's Party pledges to amend the Court Organization Act(法院組織法) and introduce live broadcasts of courtroom proceedings, allowing sunlight to shine into the judiciary and expose any abuse of power. We must also take decisive steps to end political interference in judicial processes. The crime of obstructing judicial fairness must be enshrined in law, with the necessary legislation passing its third reading in this session of the Legislative Yuan.

By defending the role of Congress and utilizing the oversight power of the opposition, we can implement the reforms the DPP has failed to deliver and halt William Lai's dangerous march toward autocracy.

This land, Taiwan, is deserving of our collective commitment.

Let it be clear: today's summit is not a conclusion, but a beginning. A comma—not a period. "Action" has always been the DNA of the Taiwan People's Party. For this nation, for this land, and for the people of Taiwan, we will never retreat when it is time to stand and act.

I firmly believe that through courageous, unified action, we can illuminate a path through darkness and together create a new chapter of hope for Taiwan and its future.
