The controversy over the KMT’s selection committee has come to an end. The nomination of 2024 legislators will return to the Central Nomination Committee, and invite New Taipei Mayor Hou Youyi, Taipei Mayor Jiang Wanan, Taichung Mayor Lu Xiuyan, and Taoyuan Mayor Zhang Shanzheng to join. The Party Central Committee is expected to approve the list of nomination committees at the Central Committee today. When Hou Youyi was interviewed yesterday, she first emphasized that she “is a party member” and believes that any county or city chief should have the opportunity to participate, “especially for the good of Taiwan, and I will never look back.”
This is Hou Youyi, who used to keep a distance from party affairs. Recently, he has made the most clear statement that he is willing to join the nomination committee and get involved in party affairs. According to the interpretation of the New Taipei Blue Camp, this means that Hou will soon assume the responsibility of being the strongest hen in the Blue Camp.
As Hou Youyi clearly stated his support for the Party Central Committee, Jiang Wanan said in an interview yesterday that in the face of the next challenge, everyone will “work together and bear together”; Zhang Shanzheng also said in recent interviews that as long as the Party Central Committee needs him or needs him in Taoyuan tried his best, and he will definitely go all out. As for Lu Xiuyan, she continued to keep silent about this, but according to party insiders, the heads of the four capitals have agreed to be included in the nomination committee.
The Kuomintang announced the establishment of the “Central Election Strategy Report” on the 15th, which caused an uproar. Hou Youyi posted a message on Facebook, emphasizing that “black money cannot be restored, and the party must guard against it and be cautious.” This intensified the relationship between Hou and the Party Central Committee; Announced that the operation of the selection committee will be terminated and will return to the Central Nomination Committee. It is planned to invite county and city mayors including the mayors of the four cities of the party, the former mayor of Kaohsiung, Han Guoyu, and the mayor of Chiayi, Huang Minhui, who is also the vice chairman of the party, to participate in the nomination committee. It will be submitted to the regular meeting today Through the adoption, Zhu Lilun has repeatedly reiterated that the Central Nomination Committee is the real decision-making unit.
After the controversy over the selection committee ended, Hou expressed his approval for the Party Central Committee’s quick response to public opinion, and repeatedly emphasized that no matter what method is used, he believes that Chairman Zhu Lilun will have a proper solution. Hou also once said that the individual is definitely not that important, what is important is the team “Where the team needs me to stand, we will go all out.”
When Hou was asked about the nomination committee again yesterday, he emphasized that he is a member of the Kuomintang, and he believes that all county and city chiefs should have the opportunity to participate, especially for the good of Taiwan. He has no hesitation.
As for the Kuomintang being accused of dirty and smelly toilets, Hou Youyi said that the government that the public most expects is a clean and efficient government. During this period of time, everyone deeply feels the same about the clean government and black money. “Looking forward to gathering more people to join together.” To make politics clearer and more efficient, and to reassure the people is what should be done.
