The Kuomintang (KMT) and Taiwan People's Party (TPP) will jointly nominate a mayoral candidate in Chiayi City. Yesterday, the results of the primary poll were announced, with former TPP legislator Chang Chi-kai emerging victorious. He will face off against the Democratic Progressive Party's (DPP) nominee, Wang Mei-hui. Chang Chi-kai has also invited KMT nominee Weng Shou-liang to serve as his campaign headquarters director. The public is watching whether future KMT-TPP cooperation will follow the Chiayi City model, inviting each other to join their teams.
Huang Kuo-chang stated today during a policy presentation and media interview that the TPP and KMT have signed a party cooperation agreement. Yesterday, the two parties officially completed their primary poll in Chiayi City, demonstrating a gentleman's competition, allowing the public to see that the primary process can maintain rationality and gentlemanly conduct. He believes that Chang Chi-kai, Weng Shou-liang, and current mayor Huang Min-hui will support each other closely.
Huang Kuo-chang said that this KMT-TPP cooperation model is believed to be implementable not only in Chiayi City but also in New Taipei City and Yilan County in the future. Since the TPP has signed the party cooperation agreement, it will honor its commitments. Healthy competition between political parties and the ability to cooperate afterward to create the highest welfare is what the people jointly expect.
In addition, Lu Pei Xu Chun-ying was indicted for violating the Anti-infiltration Act. During yesterday's court hearing, the judge presented evidence revealing that Xu Chun-ying's conversation records with Chinese officials mentioned that Taipei City Councilor Ying Hsiao-wei might be detained and that Huang Kuo-chang would become the TPP's acting chairman. The media asked whether the TPP would define this as Chinese intervention or infiltration.
Huang Kuo-chang responded that those contents are not national secrets, and most are media rumors. "How could I have become the TPP's acting chairman in August 2024?" He believes that court matters should be discussed in court, and how to prevent national secrets from being taken by Chinese spies and betraying national interests is the real focus of concern now.
