Core Viewpoint - The Taiwanese government is facing political turmoil as the head of the administrative agency, Chuo Rong-tai, refuses to sign the amendment to the "Fiscal Revenue and Expenditure Allocation Act" and has not allocated the budget for the 2026 fiscal year according to the legislative body's approved law, leading to calls for his impeachment from opposition parties [1][3]. Group 1 - The Kuomintang (KMT) and the People First Party (PFP) representatives filed a complaint with the supervisory agency, demanding the impeachment of Chuo Rong-tai for his refusal to sign the budget and execute the law passed by the legislative body [1][3]. - The complaint states that Chuo Rong-tai's actions exceed administrative authority by not allocating the budget for laws that should have been published or executed, resulting in significant dereliction of duty [3]. - The KMT representative, Weng Hsiao-ling, emphasized that Chuo's behavior constitutes a major failure, while another representative, Hsu Chiao-hsin, pointed out that the failure to allocate the budget for military personnel salary increases is also a reason for impeachment [3]. Group 2 - Following Chuo Rong-tai's refusal to sign the "Fiscal Revenue and Expenditure Allocation Act," the KMT and PFP initiated impeachment procedures against Lai Ching-te, the leader of the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), with proposals submitted to the legislative body [3]. - The legislative body's procedural committee held a meeting where the opposition successfully voted to include the impeachment motion against Lai Ching-te in the agenda for the session on December 26 [3]. - Additionally, a public online petition for the impeachment of Lai Ching-te gained significant traction, with participation skyrocketing from 700,000 to 1.2 million within five hours, and surpassing 8.17 million by the evening of December 22 [4].
