(CNA Reporter Shen Ru-feng, Yilan County, 23rd) Former Taiwan People's Party (TPP) Chairman Ko Wen-je accompanied the TPP's Yilan County magistrate candidate, Chen Wan-hui, today to canvass for votes at traditional markets in the Luodong area of Yilan. He also plans to head to the Toucheng area in Yilan tomorrow evening to give a speech and boost the campaign's momentum.
This morning, Ko Wen-je, along with his wife Chen Pei-chi and Chen Wan-hui, visited the Fude Temple at Luodong Zhongshan Park to offer incense, and then proceeded to the nearby Minsheng and Kaiyuan markets to canvass for Chen Wan-hui.
Chen Wan-hui stated that Ko Wen-je will be intensely campaigning for her in Yilan over the coming days. Having cultivated her presence in Yilan for many years, she hopes to stand out in the upcoming Blue-White (KMT-TPP) integration polls to represent the coalition in the year-end county magistrate election and secure a victory.
When the media asked Ko Wen-je for his thoughts on President Lai Ching-te's thwarted travel plans, Ko responded that President Lai might actually be happy about not being able to travel, as it fits Lai's consistent strategy of escalating confrontation. However, the price paid is that Taiwanese society will fall into long-term division. (Editor: Lin Shu-hui) 1150423
