Economics Minister J.W. Kuo has come under fire for a series of comments he made at the Legislative Yuan on Labor Day. In recent days, some Taipower workers have criticized the government’s energy policy, pointing to it as one of the reasons the company is losing money. Let’s hear his controversial remarks.

J.W. Kuo
Economics minister
There’s lots of reasons why Taipower is losing money. They can’t just blame it on energy policy. Are they experts? If they can’t stand it, they can leave.

Lo Ting-wei
Lawmaker (KMT)
Everyone who saw that was shocked. He’s totally unfit for his position as economics minister. He should step down. His gaffes are too numerous to mention.

Rosalia Wu
DPP Legislative Caucus
As a government official, you should avoid making emotional statements. That’s something all officials should strive to do.

Cho Jung-tai
Premier
I’ll speak with the minister. To a certain extent, the comments have made a lot of workers unhappy. As a government, we should strive to take care of workers.

Kuo has been embroiled in one controversy after another due to his public outbursts. In a recent incident, he used an ableist slur to describe a joint venture between TSMC and Intel. As a new face in politics, the business executive has faced numerous calls to step down from opposition parties.
