Heated words from the TSU after latest ECFA referendum rejection (2010/08/11)
The Taiwan Solidarity Union says it will not take its referendum rejection sitting down. After the government’s Referendum Review Committee rejected the party’s latest ECFA referendum proposal, Chairman Huang Kun-huei said the party will apply a third time. Former President Lee Teng-hui has given an even more heated response, saying that the only way for Taiwan to become truly democratic in his lifetime is for there to be a new president.
Chao Yung-mao
Referendum Review Committee Chairman
This proposal is calling for both a substantive and a procedural referendum. The two are contradictory, so this committee has decided to reject the proposal.
Two votes in favor, and 10 against. The Referendum Review Committee has again rejected a referendum on the economic cooperation framework agreement that Taiwan signed with China. The committee says the proposed question, which was signed by more than 100,000 people, contains a contradiction. Former President Lee Teng-hui responded.
Lee Teng-hui
Former President
I’m already 89 years old. I don’t want to die until Taiwan has become truly democratic. But there’s only one way for that to happen. We need a new president. It’s the only way.
Lee used strong words to say the Taiwan Solidarity Union can’t accept the reasons given for rejecting the referendum. Chairman Huang Kun-huei says the party will push ahead and apply a third time.
Huang Kun-huei
TSU Chairman
I will work with the Taiwanese people to continue the signature drive. We will keep making proposals. We won’t stop until there’s a referendum on the ECFA.
Huang used strong words to express his belief that referendums are a democracy’s last line of defense. He says the party will use the system to show people where the contradiction really lies.

老李談公投
台聯捲土重來，第二度提出的ECFA公投提案，今天被行政院公審會，以二票比十票，決議駁回!得知消息，台聯精神領袖李登輝非常憤怒，他激動的說，馬政府根本沒在聽人民的聲音，鴨霸亂搞，他有生之年，一定要親眼看見台灣真正民主。
[[公審會主委 趙永茂 ]]
本案主文，理由既論實質性公投，又涉程序性公投 ，彼此相互矛盾，本委員會認定應駁回
兩票支持，十票反對，公審會第二度決議，駁回ECFA公投案，十萬人連署提案，被認定內容矛盾，李前總統聽到，完全不能接受。
[[前總統 李登輝]]
我已經89歲了，就要活到台灣能夠真正民主之後，我才要去死，只有一個辦法了啦，(總統)換人了 沒有其他辦法了
重話都說出口，台聯不能接受駁回理由，決定著手，第三度提案ECFA公投。
[[台聯主席 黃昆輝]]
昆輝跟台灣人民一定繼續進行連署，繼續提案，ECFA不公投 決不終止
激動宣示，堅持公投是民主的最後防線，台聯要從制度面，讓大家看到，哪一邊才是矛盾!
