KMT legislator claims over 1 million at rally, faces mockery

Kuomintang (KMT) legislator Fu Kun-chi claimed that over 1 million people attended an anti-drug rally held at Ketagalan Boulevard in Taipei. However, this assertion was met with skepticism and online ridicule, with netizens pointing out the logistical impossibility of such a crowd filling the venue.

Political commentator Chen Hui-wen offered a critique of the rally and the KMT's legislative leadership. He stated that the claim of 1 million attendees was inaccurate. Chen also noted that while the KMT and Taiwan People's Party (TPP) hold a majority in the Legislative Yuan, they do not represent all 23 million people in Taiwan.

we have over 1 million people here

Chen Hui-wen suggested that for the KMT legislative caucus to "normalize," the first step should be to replace its current whip. This call for leadership change comes amid discussions about the party's direction and effectiveness in the legislature. The rally itself was organized by the KMT and focused on an anti-drug message.
