Although Taiwan guarantees freedom of speech, it is still a democratic country ruled by law. - Hou Yu-ih

My national defense policy is to prepare for war, but not to provoke.

As a (former) police chief, I was in gunfights multiple times and have protected Taiwan with my life. People can testify that my life is intertwined with the safety of this nation.

Dialogue between Taipei and Beijing is also a crucial way to defuse crises and ensure peace and stability. I support the 1992 consensus, the approach to cross-strait dialogue agreed to by Taiwanese officials and counterparts from the mainland, consistent with the (Republic of China) Constitution.
