Changhua County Speaker Xie Dianlin, who supported Hon Hai founder Terry Gou in the presidential election, first “supported the party’s nominee” when asked by the media after the Kuomintang nominated Hou Youyi for the presidential election, and later changed it to “support the president who is not in the green camp.” “Until he announced his withdrawal from the Kuomintang on Facebook, he stopped being ambiguous and made a formal statement. Xie Dianlin’s move has also been interpreted that Guo Taiming may announce his candidacy for the presidency, and Hou Youyi’s situation will be even more difficult.
Before the Kuomintang nominated Hou Youyi, Xie Dianlin actively expressed his support for Guo. In addition to arranging for Guo Taiming to go to the county council to have a discussion with members of the parliament, he also mobilized the masses and held a central party for Guo Taiming. Even after the Kuomintang decided to recruit Hou Youyi, he was still in the Facebook posted “This is my brother, Ah Ming.” It also said that the two “talked a lot” like best friends, obviously they have never been able to forget their love for Guo.
On the afternoon of the 29th of this month, he accompanied Guo Taiming to campaign for Yan Honglin, the non-party Beidou mayor candidate. When asked by the media whether he would continue to support Guo Taiming, he said in a mysterious way: “We will talk about it after the announcement.” Sure enough, On the evening of the 31st, he announced his withdrawal from the Kuomintang. The first time the media got the news that he would quit the CCP was from his sister Xie Yifeng’s online group. Later, Xie Dianlin announced his resignation from the CCP on Facebook.
Xie Dianlin and his sister Xie Yifeng have a competitive and cooperative relationship. Except for Xie Dianlin who supports Guo and Xie Yifeng who is a marquis, there have been rumors in the political circle that the Xie family is planning “double insurance”, but in fact, apart from Xie Dianlin, the Xie family can be said to be quite Hou’s, when Hou Youyi visited the county council, Xie Dianlin’s father and son were present and escorted him to express their support for the three generations of his family, but in the end Xie Dianlin was like a wild horse and quit the party in order to support Guo. Xie Yifeng, chairman of the county party committee.
Xie Dianlin wrote about Xie Yifeng in his statement of quitting the party: “I love and respect my elder sister Xie Yifeng very much. She is also the deputy secretary general of the Central Party Committee and the chairman of the Changhua County Party Committee. She is also a member of the Legislative Council. She has many important responsibilities. I am also very reluctant to let go of the great burden on her shoulders. My eldest sister and I are family members, but they are also independent individuals. The Kuomintang is fighting side by side, and I still feel a little melancholy.”

Xie Dianlin’s withdrawal from the Kuomintang will have a huge impact on the local political ecology. Political circles point out that Xie Yifeng is the popular candidate for the next Changhua county magistrate of the Kuomintang, and it is rumored that Xie Dianlin also intends to compete. Now, his resignation from the party has cast more variables in the election of the next Changhua county magistrate, and even affected the next speaker election , Xie Dianlin’s bet is quite high. Of course, if he successfully assists Guo Taiming to be elected president, it will be another matter.
