Wen's favorable treatment is a sham: DPP

Tuesday, 16 March 2010 09:09 Taiwan News

Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao's promise to give favorable treatment to Taiwan in negotiations over an Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) is a lie, the opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) said yesterday.

At a news conference in Beijing Sunday, Wen described Taiwan and China as "siblings" and said farmers and small businesses in Taiwan should not be harmed by ECFA.

Wen Jiabao a ‘liar,’ ECFA a tool: DPP

The proposed economic cooperation framework agreement (ECFA) between Taiwan and China would pave the way for eventual unification, Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) legislators said yesterday, adding that the agreement would be “more political than economic.”

The comments followed Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao’s (溫家寶) speech to the National People’s Congress on Sunday, in which he attempted to calm fears that the controversial pact would flood Taiwan with cheap Chinese imports and cost thousands of farmers and workers their jobs.

The legislature’s Procedure Committee yesterday passed a Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) caucus-proposed bill aimed at establishing a protocol to regulate transfers of power for the period between presidential elections and their inaugurations.

The proposal is now listed on Friday’s legislative agenda. In the hope that the proposed bill could be passed before the current legislative session goes into recess next Wednesday, the DPP caucus yesterday said it would demand that the bill be put directly to a second reading during Friday’s plenary session and then be put to discussion, along with a similar proposal by Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Legislator Lu Hsueh-chang (呂學樟).
