Taipei mayoral candidates weigh in on the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant (2014/04/22)

Candidates for Taipei mayor weighed in today with their opinions on the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant. KMT nominee Sean Lien repeated his party line that safety should be the top priority while pan green contenders were willing to pledge that the plant should not operate if the public is opposed.

KMT Taipei mayoral nominee Sean Lien visited Songshan Ciyou Temple today for a Matsu ceremony. Since winning the KMT primary, Lien has repeatedly stated that the safety of the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant should be a primary concern.

Sean Lien
KMT Taipei Mayoral Nominee
I think we should adhere to the principle that without nuclear safety, we cannot begin operating the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant.

As for pan green candidates, Wellington Koo said he’s ardently opposed to nuclear power.

Wellington Koo
DPP Taipei Mayoral Candidate
My attitude is quite clear. I’m opposed to the construction of the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant. If the results of the referendum support stopping construction on the plant, I would definitely support this.

Ko Wen-je
Independent Taipei Mayoral Candidate
This is a political crisis for Taiwan and a turning point. It presents an opportunity to respond to popular will and resolve this controversy. I believe that opposition to the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant goes beyond pan-blue and pan-green politics or unification and independence supporters.

Candidates for Taipei mayor are closely watching public opinion, as few believe it’s worth alienating voters over this issue before citizens go to the polls.

參選人核四

前民進黨主席林義雄，今天展開反核禁食，藍綠台北市長參選人，也紛紛對核四表態，國民黨參選人連勝文，就強調核四安全第一，而民進黨參選人顧立雄，則強調不排除支持無條件反核四，而最先拋出參選首都市長，就該對核四問題表態的柯文哲，則強調政治人物要有誠信。

參加松山慈祐宮媽祖祭典，連勝文虔誠一拜，黨內市長初選勝出後，對核四問題，他強調核安第一。

[[國民黨台北市長參選人連勝文]]
核安的這個問題，就是沒有核安，就不能有核四運轉這樣的原則，我想這個原則我們必須堅持。

民進黨陣營，律師顧立雄對核四問題，則堅持反核到底。

[[律師顧立雄]]
我本身當然態度是很清楚的，我是反對核四興建，所以公投如果確定，結果就是核四停建，當然就停建。

[[台北市長參選人柯文哲]]
這是台灣政治上的危機跟轉機，如何去順應這個民意，去解決這個事情，我想在反核四這件事情，絕對是超越藍綠、超越統獨。

隨著反核民意高漲，藍綠選將紛紛表態，就怕疏離民意，失了選票。
