With 54% dissatisfaction rate for the new government's handling of commodity prices, what is your verdict for its overall performance?54％受訪者不滿政府處理物價的表現；您對政府整體表現

The past administration of Pres. Chen Shui Bian had so many Premiers that spoiled the brew so it'll be more appropriate to judge Pres. Ma's guv led by Premier Liu at the 6-months and 1-yr. milestones rather than when the chief cook is still just starting to brew the stew.

Except that Ma said that his team was ready to govern on day one. They have shown that they were not ready. The government made a pledge to the people of Taiwan regarding the increase of energy and broke it, causing traffic chaos on the night before the revised date of the increase in gasoline prices. This isn't the only area of incompetance in the first six weeks of the Ma administration. They had better fix their act soon or approval numbers will drop to Bush-like levels.

54% dissatisfaction rate? Whose poll is that? DPP poll!!!. What propaganda is that? It was like the broadcast done across the Kinmen, Matsu (Quemoy) by Communist China during the 1960/70. The propaganda of which Communist China is the best was that Taiwan was out to be run over and asked Taiwanese to rise to overthrow the CKS Government. Taiwanews probably wants to destablise the MA's Governement by publishing distorted poll results every day on small hiccups and minor problems which some of these problems are a carried-over of incompetent DPP administration. More to the point, the corrupt Government of Chen Shui Bian who is Good at smiling for a good shots photos for media to show he was working for Taiwan. DPP play politics every day. Spinning, twisting and turning issues as if Taiwan depending of them to earn a daily living. Sure Gas, fuel and commodities have risen but this is a world wide problem and the new Government is trying to contain the inflation. Unlike DPP Government during its final dying days refused to adjust these prices in order that the new Government would have a harder time to satisfy the population. The action depleted the country Reserves. In any case one month is not enough to sort out the mess created by the DPP Government. Wait till the new Government clean up, resolve and bring to a justifiable end to the corruption happened during DPP rule. Then Satifisfaction will be guaranteed.
