At 2:30 pm on Thursday, Taipei resident Michael Chou received a mobile alert, stating that due to "simulated air attack on communications infrastructure," mobile network access would be affected. 
It turned out to be a mobile internet disruption drill in the northern part of the Taiwan island. As part of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities' "urban resilience drill," the exercise was designed to simulate scenarios of limited communication resources amid major disasters or wartime conditions and verify public‑service backup capabilities, according to Taiwan-based media. 
Yet in the view of observers, this performative farce not only disrupts residents' daily lives, but also acts as a tool for DPP authorities to hype up crises and amplify cross‑Straits confrontation. It essentially serves their scheme of "seeking independence by force" and narrow‑minded electoral interests.
As reported by udn.com, the exercise ran from 2:30 pm to 3 pm. When the alert was triggered, local police diverted pedestrians and vehicles to the roadside and urged the public to take shelter indoors. With mobile network speeds throttled, most people at the site lost mobile internet access; many waited out the drill indoors with available Wi‑fi and passed the time by chatting or reading. 
Chou told the Global Times that 4G and 5G connections were heavily throttled during the drill, though Wi‑Fi and text messaging still worked. Even so, the exercise has created real‑world inconveniences, disrupting takeout delivery, transport‑related ticketing and outdoor emergency rescue services.
Local legislator Ko Ju-chun from the Chinese Kuomintang party was also among those opposing the drill. He accused the DPP for abusing emergency alerts which only exposed the public to inconvenience. He noted that a genuine network‑resilience drill should focus on "how the public obtain information after networks go down," yet local people still had no clear idea how to respond in such circumstances, per Taiwan-based media. 
"The so‑called mobile internet disruption drill has very limited practical combat value. And if a military conflict breaks out across the Taiwan Straits, the real‑world scenario would be far more complex than the DPP authorities have envisioned, with much higher costs to bear," Zhang Wensheng, a deputy dean and a professor at the Taiwan Research Institute at Xiamen University, told the Global Times.
"The DPP authorities want the drill to stoke tensions, drumming up public backing for its combative defense policies and higher military budgets. Yet it fears over‑hyping the specter of war would disrupt daily life and erode its popular support, hence this superficial, showpiece drill," said the expert. 
According to Zhang, the DPP authorities also intend to test Taiwan residents' tolerance threshold. It seeks to observe whether the public will passively acquiesce or push back strongly, so as to assess the mobilization effect of its narratives of "resisting mainland to protect Taiwan" and "rejecting reunification by force."
Prior to the mobile internet disruption drill in northern parts of Taiwan island, seven counties and cities in the central Taiwan region held the same drill on Monday afternoon.
Many residents have questioned why the southern region was exempt. DPP officials claimed southern Taiwan had suffered real‑life communication outages in past years and that a drill in the southern part of the island scheduled to take place at 10 am, when the Stock Exchange of Taiwan region is open, could disrupt real-time stock transactions. 
"This drill is utterly absurd," Chou said, "The DPP probably figures that if anything goes wrong in central and northern Taiwan, it does not matter, local mayors would take the blame."
Echoing Chou, Zhang said that the DPP authorities do not want drill‑related disruptions to harm their core support base in southern Taiwan, particularly Tainan and Kaohsiung. By contrast, jurisdictions across central and northern Taiwan include many areas ruled by the KMT, which are being used as test subjects for the exercise. 
By striking a posture of "combat readiness," hyping up cross‑Straits confrontation and ramping up ideological mobilization, the DPP aims to serve its interests in the year‑end local elections, he added.
"However, voters always pay more attention to livelihoods, the economy and governance performance in local election. If DPP's political manipulation go too far, it will backfire," Zhang said. "The overwhelming majority of Taiwan compatriots refuse to become cannon‑fodder for secessionists."
The DPP authorities do not hesitate to use the well‑being of Taiwan residents and cross‑Straits peace and stability as bargaining chips for their own political interests, fully laying bare its true colors as a troublemaker, the expert warned.

三 | 保持室内空气里流通是预防传染病的有效方式，空气质量达标时，保证每天不少于30分钟开窗通风时间。         居家安全          放假期间，不要留幼儿一人在家，尽量让幼儿在自己的视线范围内，不要让幼儿在无人看护的情况下单独跟其他幼儿外出玩耍。         1          教育幼儿不攀爬阳台、窗户等高处危险的地方。

四 |          2          家用电器一定要收拾妥善，不让幼儿随意触碰；不要玩电源插头插座，更不能用手或导电物伸进电源插座内。

五 |          3          家长在平时生活中要注意将热水、热汤、取暖器等放在安全的地方。

六 | 一旦发生烫伤要用流动水冲洗伤口，不要涂抹牙膏、酱油等物品，并及时送医做专业处理。         4          家里药物一定要妥善保存，切勿让幼儿当糖果误食。         5          不玩火，如火柴、打火机、蜡烛等；教给幼儿火灾自救知识，如用湿毛巾捂住口鼻逃离。         食品安全          假期要特别注意幼儿的饮食，下面为大家准备了幼儿元旦饮食安全注意事项，希望帮助幼儿在家长的指导下健康饮食。         1          拒绝不健康的食物：不吃半生不熟的食物、染有色素的食品等。不干净或变质的食品很容易引发急性肠胃炎。         2          杜绝幼儿暴饮暴食：幼儿在假期吃了比平时多数倍的食物，很容易造成急性胃扩张，造成肠胃负担过重，消化吸收不良，造成肠胃的损害。         3          购买正规食品：购买食物时请购买正规厂家生产的食品，并仔细查看产品标签及生产日期。

七 |          消防安全          1          监督孩子做到不玩火、不玩电，注意用电、用火安全。用取暖设备时注意保持室内空气流通，防止煤气中毒。         2          加强对孩子的安全教育，禁止幼儿燃放烟花爆竹，防止安全事故的发生。         3          不带火种进入森林，遇有火情，请及时拨打119报警。         文明过节          1          了解元旦的意义。

八 | 元旦是新的一年的开始，我们建议家长结合传统节日，对孩子做一些相关教育，帮助孩子了解新年的意义，让孩子有新一年的目标计划，从而使孩子在认知、思维、身心等方面的发展有一个全面的提升。         2          作息规律。元旦期间合理安排好幼儿的作息时间，早睡、早起、多锻炼身体，尽量保持幼儿园的作息规律，以免孩子放假后回到幼儿园出现不适应的现象。
