@锐看台报 The chairman of the Kuomintang will be re-elected next year. The former chairman Zhu Lilun went to Taichung yesterday to have dinner with Zhenlan Palace chairman Yan Qingbiao and others. The current chairman Jiang Qichen went to New Taipei City today to participate in the event and was asked if he thinks Zhu is "stepping" Site"? Jiang Qichen said that Zhu Lilun is often in Taichung, and he himself is now in New Taipei. You don't need to think too much. There are a lot of internal party affairs, and several former chairmen are very concerned about the KMT.
Former chief executive of the party policy meeting Cai Zhengyuan today revealed that current party chairmen Jiang Qichen, Ma Ying-jeou, former chairman Zhu Lilun, former mayor of Kaohsiung City Korea Yu, and former Taipei County Mayor Zhou Xiwei will all enter the battle. Jiang Qichen said in an interview today that he is the current chairman of the Kuomintang and he will not comment on the re-election next year.
When asked if Zhu Lilun went to Taichung to have a meal with the locals yesterday, would he feel pressured? Jiang Qichen said that it is normal for Zhu Lilun to care about the Kuomintang, and there are several former chairmen who are very concerned. Especially at this moment, the Kuomintang, as an opposition party, must be united. Everyone is willing to care about it. He said that he kept in touch with Zhu Lilun, and Zhu was also very concerned about the current situation of the party, including how to do a good job with the "opposition party" and how to deal with the "one party dominance" DPP.
Faced with media inquiries from the KMT think tank, the latest poll in September showed that the KMT’s support rate is only 6% behind the DPP, and the netizens are sour that they “feel good about themselves”. Jiang Qichen pointed out that everyone can refer to the ups and downs of the polls, but the Kuomintang has a clear goal and knows what it is doing. The current direction is to play the role of the "opposition party" and speak out for the people, like the Clenbuterol issue. With 70% of the people opposed, the Kuomintang will stand with public opinion. This is what it is doing now.
