Taiwan is facing a referendum on the import of American 'Lean Pork' containing ractopamine, a decision that could affect Taiwan-US relations and the Democratic Progressive Party's policies. The Taipei-based Information Operations Research Group (IORG) has found evidence of the Chinese Communist Party's involvement in most discussions about 'Lean Pork' over the past seven months, aiming to influence Taiwanese public opinion against the United States. The referendum also includes issues such as nuclear power and environmental protection. Both the DPP and KMT have taken opposing stances on the referendum, with the DPP urging votes against the import of American pork, while the KMT supports it, citing food safety concerns. The CCP's information manipulation is seen as part of its broader strategy to prevent Taiwan's independence and promote unification.
