Central News Agency (CNA) — Taipei, May 1st, by reporter Wen Kuei-hsiang. The Democratic Progressive Party today issued a press release sharing Nantou County Magistrate candidate Wen Shizheng's initial aspirations and vision for politics. He plans to create the county's first mobile medical vehicle, equipped with diagnostic facilities combined with a video conferencing system, allowing hospitals to connect in real-time with doctors on board. This decentralized concept will establish a "forward hospital," so remote residents no longer have to travel long distances for medical care.
The DPP stated that Wen Shizheng recently participated in the DPP's online program "Subscribe to Good Talents," where he shared his initial aspiration to dedicate himself to public service. Wen Shizheng said that during his tenure as chairman of the New Taipei City Dentists' Association, he gained experience promoting free clinics and integrating medical resources, and successfully established mobile medical vehicles. Now, he is bringing this model back to Nantou to initiate the county's first mobile medical vehicle.
Wen Shizheng said the mobile medical vehicle will be equipped with comprehensive diagnostic facilities and a remote video conferencing system, enabling real-time connection between hospitals and onboard doctors. This decentralized concept will create the most convenient "forward hospital," hoping to spare remote residents the need for long journeys for medical treatment.
The DPP pointed out that Nantou is often described as having a "deeply blue political landscape" by outsiders, but Wen Shizheng emphasized his confidence in breaking through. Recently, while visiting grassroots communities, tea farmers reported slow tea seedling growth due to insufficient rainfall. He immediately invited the Ministry of Agriculture for a site inspection and, within three days, developed a subsidy plan, making him further appreciate the meaning of engaging in politics.
The DPP stated that Wen Shizheng is a native of Caotun, having graduated from Yanfeng Elementary School and Caotun Junior High School. He topped the national dental examination and pursued advanced studies in precision medicine at Oxford University in the UK, becoming the highest fellow of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists. During the 921 earthquake, he returned to his hometown as a military doctor to assist in rescue efforts, committing himself to giving back to his community. From starting his own dental group from scratch to promoting rural healthcare and public welfare services, Wen Shizheng hopes to bring more change to Nantou through his professional experience.
