The "Taiwan Democracy Foundation" will hold a board meeting on the 10th. It is expected that the head of the legislative body, Han Kuo-yu, will serve as the chairman. However, the Democratic Progressive Party still has more directors, and although the CEO is nominated by the chairman, it still has It must be approved by the board of directors, and Han Kuo-yu's preferred CEO candidate, National Chengchi University professor Lu Yezhong, may be vetoed. Media person Huang Yangming said today (1st), "If Blue and White join forces, the 'Democracy Foundation' will not be able to elect a chairman." If a deadlock really occurs, the budget of Taiwan's foreign affairs department and the "Democracy Foundation" will be reviewed in the second half of the year. It's definitely going to be dramatic.
Huang Yangming said that it has recently been reported that the Democratic Progressive Party authorities are willing to let Han Guoyu concurrently serve as the chairman of the "Democracy Foundation" as usual, but they do not accept Lu Yezhong, the CEO candidate proposed by Han Guoyu. Some media reported that Han Guoyu will adopt "Han Lu and Han advance and retreat together". ” model, there may still be variables whether the new chairman can be successfully elected at the upcoming board meeting on April 10.
"But the key point is that Article 13 of the articles of association of the 'Democracy Foundation' stipulates that the election of the chairman is a special resolution on important matters that requires the attendance of more than two-thirds of the directors and the consent of more than half of the directors present." Huang Yangming attached a picture and pointed out, According to the list of new directors displayed on the official website of the "Democracy Foundation", there are 15 seats in total. If 2/3 of the directors are required to attend, at least 10 directors need to be present to elect a new chairman, otherwise the resolution cannot be made. The Kuomintang recommended 4 directors, including Chen Yongkang, Cai Mingzhong, Gao Sibo, Xu Yuning, and ex-officio director Han Guoyu, a total of 5 seats. The threshold cannot be reached to prevent the board of directors from electing the chairman. It must join forces with the 1 seat recommended by the People's Party. Only in order to obtain a seat at the "Boycott Meeting".
Huang Yangming said, of course, if the DPP authorities are willing to accept Lu Yezhong as the new CEO, there will be no surprises at the April 10 board meeting. However, if the government and the opposition cannot reach consensus on the choice of CEO, the United People's Party may have a technical meeting of the board of directors as one of the options the Kuomintang can take.
