The results of the two referenda demonstrate the majority view of the Taiwanese people.

Over the next four years, I will continue to listen to different views and accept different suggestions.

Because we can't communicate, there's a lot of misunderstanding.

Even if I were knocked down by one gunshot it wouldn't affect our democracy and I wasn't knocked down and I have great confidence in our democracy and in Taiwan and in the people of Taiwan.

The road to democracy may be winding and is like a river taking many curves, but eventually the river will reach the ocean.

The grandeur and strength or our people and democracy are as big as a forest.

A defensive referendum is for avoiding war and to help keep the Taiwanese people free of fear.
