“Chung’s Blunt Words: CE Election Series (No.14): Candidate Performance”
“Brushing aside the issues of “cunning talks” and “fact checks”, the author considers all election campaigns so far as clean and gentlemanlike.”
“This said, the author is not sure what happens behind the scene. Over the past years, society was torn between the yellow and blue camps, and those in power have deliberately used blue, red, black and white forces to oppress the people.”
“Put it simple, judging from the performance of the candidates, the reaction of subordinate organizations, and the work of the media, the author considers everybody’s performance to be satisfactory with occasional surprises. He feels hopeful that society will get better after the March 26 election.
