The opposition wants to give parliament greater scrutiny powers over the government, including a controversial proposal to criminalise officials who are deemed to make false statements in parliament. The ruling Democratic Progressive party has accused the opposition of improperly trying to force through the proposals without the customary consultation process in what they call 'an unconstitutional abuse of power'.

#Taiwan #Politics #TaiwanNews #WorldNews
When Taiwanese politicians say 'we fight for you' to their constituents they really meant it.
Taiwan has a two-party system, so it is only a party struggle and has nothing to do with the truth of the incident.
Oh yeah
One of my Taiwanese friend told me that this fight that breaks up usually is preplanned. The constituents especially the older people felt that it meant the Assemblyman is fighting for you

Please be informed:
The real game of expanding powers in the legislature should be to expose arms dealers, the US military, and US military aid programs in the Legislative Yuan. The construction projects in Eastern Taiwan are allowing Chinese funds and personnel to enter the hinterland of our national defense. All of this is paving the way for Xi Jinping's annexation of Taiwan by 2027. From the beginning, this has nothing to do with Taiwan's financial, livelihood, fairness, or justice. This marks the beginning of the second Cold War and a new axis of evil in the East Asian theater. Considering the joint statement issued by China and Russia yesterday, it seems that the activities of CPP around the world are intensifying.

Misleading. They weren’t fight for chamber reform but the discussion of the reforms before approval, their rights.
The majority went straight to approval before the legislation was finalized, distributed, reviewed, and discussed.

As a Taiwanese, this is insane to see. People are standing up against violence in congress. Besides, this also happened because the party with more people(KMT) and TPP are trying to pass a law that we don’t even know what it is about! However, this law is trying to oppress our freedom of speech and put people in jail if you are considered “contempt of congress” which includes talking back to the congress man and refusing to go to the congress as a person(not limited to citizens). The penalty and definitions are all unclear and whenever DPP( the party with less people) what to open a stage for debate and exchanging ideas. They end the discussion!!! This is insane and we as Taiwanese have to stand up to this to protect our freedom of speech and democracy!!!!

Why do you sound like a helldiver 2 character
they just want to return to their original roots ie dictatorship
U need to with China.

For Taiwanese parliament this is pretty common, just another day at the office 😊
But this is not what democracy is. If anyone resorts to violence in parliament, they can do much worse outside the parliament. This is why there is no hope in Taiwan.
@@Strawberryknight It's bourgeois democracy, that's why it doesn't actually work.
Not common in these days until DPP becomes minority in the parliament. They always resort to violence when they can't win.
@@Strawberryknight No, you are wrong! they could have dinner together later on pretending nothing had happened.

A parliamentary tradition here, for some reason.
After this fight and the law passing, these will become history
It's almost midnight now & they're all still in the parliament trying to pass the law (& trying to stop it passing)
(Except the ones who got injured during the fight)
filibuster....
Shame on DDP!
xiami law?
DPP ones were sent to ER, then went home right after, but KMT one who was former prosecutor, went back to fight with his teammate.

I think this is like the 3rd time in my life where I've seen a video of a Taiwanese Chamber brawl. Well in a way, you can clearly see that everybody(deeply) cares about what's going on within the country, especially with a potential war breaking out from the Mainland just over the horizon.
you spoke like a eight-year-old. They don't fight when there was no camera, don't you know?

???? Chamber ????? What???
What is even more shameful is that the police officers responsible for security were assaulted by these Legislative Council Members, who claimed that it was the police officers who were blocking their way
DPP should feel ashamed of themselves. Police is there for their duty.
The police were blocking the DPP members. If you are a Taiwanese and really watch live streaming feed in the chamber you would know. The KMT members are some of the worst politicians who share ties with the mafia and they were trying to pass an unconstitutional bill. It wasn’t chamber reform it was corruption.
甚至是媒體和議事人員也被DPP攻擊，不說還以為回到70年前
呵 幫北京做事的能當台灣國會議員 也算人類的奇蹟了。
Actually is not, the KMT party have much more power in police system. They ask the media take the picture maked the news, and named it liked the DDP party are offence.
It's not easy to said what happened cause the KMT party have the resource in school system, police system, media company (which used be own by KMT goverment during 1953~ 2005). Not metion about that CHINA goverment use their dirty hand to block down our Diplomacy and Economic with the world.
Anyone know where I can watch the full fight?
Can you Imagine the amount of Chinese laughter that erupted to this clip?
So...where was the fight?
The entire world has gone nuts 😂
I think the slime from Ghostbusters is oozing up everywhere
Welcome to the circus
It already did, from the very beginning
They have been doing this for more than 40years.
Welcome To Roman Politics.
Absolutely embarrassing.
They have been doing this for the last 10 years.
No, the Taiwanese are proud of it. They think it's an expression of democracy. You can see their justification in the comments.
@@luisgabrieldelmo772thank you DPP hahahahah
The president doesn't care and doesn't know what to do.... 60% is pro China hahahahahhaha
Actually it’s not! They are fighting with their life to protect Taiwan’s democracy!
The reforms, proposed by the Kuomintang (KMT) and the Taiwan People's Party (TPP), "exceed the bounds of those found in constitutional democracies around the world, subvert the rule of law and parliamentary procedures," the statement said.

everybody look here, a Taiwanese said, "Nevertheless, our democracy is still superior. It's no problem for our members to fight in the parliament, because this is our democracy, and it's still much better than everyone else."
“Everybody was kung fu fighting”
This is how passionate we need to get about our rights.

Things like this also happen in Japan regularly. Watch the Japan version.
I saw some furniture moving 😂
... Wow...
Don’t like the KMT either but over the last eight years, the Democratic DPP has committed numerous disgraceful acts, and they've tried everything to prevent the bill from being passed. Those who have closely followed recent party negotiations know that DPP legislators never seriously read the provisions but merely delayed proceedings with the aim of obstructing the bill's passage. They even proposed 80 different versions of the bill, with each version differing only in punctuation and a few words. Despite their majority in Congress, the DPP failed to deliver on the reforms promised over the past eight years. It's clear that there's no bill that can't be passed, only those that the DPP doesn't want to pass. Holding all the power, they have allowed Taiwan's wealth gap to reach 66 times while deceiving the international community with claims that only the DPP can protect Taiwan's sovereignty, resulting in severe hardship for the people of Taiwan.
I'm not surprised. Most DPP voters aren't very bright. Most DPP voters think that Trump is a protector of Taiwan's democracy (after he tried to end America's democracy). Most DPP voters are pro-lgbt rights & pro-vaccine but keep on trying to court Republican politicians from America.
2024 TAIWAN parliament edition is little boring tbh !
I used to think that these kind of things only happens in India 😮
I was waiting for a "Hadouken!"
No one talks about a man attacking a woman almost using wrestling techniques. Shameful!
They were aiming for true equality 😅
They also hit security guards, slapping another guy’s face, attacked a 70+ old man , that’s how far DPP can go just to stop the other two parties from reforming which the reform were promised by DPP themselves 8 years ago
Conservative endorsed attacks on woman. They mask it as equality

@@c-h-c-c4944 不是喔 她有動過腦手術
What's the reason for the fighting please I really want to know
Because Taiwan's opposition parties, the Kuomintang and the People's Party (which are not in power but hold a majority in parliament), are pushing Congress to expand its power in an attempt to check and balance the power of the president (Lai Ching-te of the Democratic Progressive Party).
Do you not have a formal way of expressing concern?

@@aloyd6157 AS LONG AS IS NEEDED...
The UK parliament has moved past the childish phase. There are more than one way to resolve conflicting ideas and physical fights are the lowest form. Besides, words cut deep, even after the meeting. They tend to stick with you for a long time and influence your behaviour at a later time. This benefits the ones who insults you. They actually changed you from the inside to fit their image. Fighting you physically doesn't produce the same effect.

Taiwan should learn from CCP, 不同意的请举手
No, this is TAIWAN show. It has nothing to do with CCP. Taiwanese always like to talk about things outside the topic.
In case you guys do not know, while our officials are questioned, they are allowed to:
1. Leave freely.
2. Fight back.(Talk back, sorry for the wrong wording)
3. Lie.
4. Take nap.
5. Deny answering or providing file, even it is hardly about national security.
Would not be fired or punished, and some people want to keep it that way. Guess if it is the same party that tackle guy belongs to.😏
If fight can really solve political differences..use punches to settle..whose punches strongest who had right take charge.. what a shame for Taiwan.. behaviour is outrageous..no anger management..
thank you
@@glentok1977 Sorry for my wrong wording, normally it's "talk back", officials would answer like "在那叫什麼?" which close to "who do you think you are?" or “不必去查”(no need to investigate that further).
they even won't answer directly to the question always talking about ideal or history
