TAIPEI -- President Tsai Ing-wen's public support has taken a hit after she pushed to lift Taiwan's ban on imports of U.S. pork containing a growth-promoting additive.
Tsai's approval rating tumbled to 58.8%, its lowest this year, in a poll published Sept. 28 by My Formosa, a news site leaning toward the island's ruling Democratic Progressive Party. The figure has fallen steeply from 70.3% in April, when the president took swift measures to combat the coronavirus pandemic.
