National Defense Issues
Posted on 2024-01-02 11:13:13
All three vice presidential candidates agreed on the need to raise the
national defence budget during yesterday's televised debate.

But KMT's Jaw Shao-Kang said that no matter how much Taiwan spends on its
self-defense, China is much larger and will always spend more whatever Taiwan
does, but he stressed that does not mean giving up.

TPP counterpart Cynthiua Wu proposed raising Taiwan's defense budget to 3
percent of GDP, as well as offering higher pay to service persons.

While DPP vice presidential candidate Hsiao Bi-Khim also suggested offering
higher salaries to Taiwanese troops, while assuring that the ongoing
indigenous warplane and warship building projects will continue if the DPP
wins the election.
