Taiwan’s largest opposition party, the Chinese Nationalist Party, officially announced on July 7 that the party’s presidential election is scheduled for July 24. In addition to the current chairman Jiang Qichen has announced that he is seeking re-election, the former mayor of Kaohsiung City, Han Kuo Yu, who has turned a low profile after losing the presidential election, has drawn attention to whether he will run again. The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible solution to the problem.
A few days ago, the Taiwanese media disclosed that former Kaohsiung mayor, Han Yoo, “will not elect the party chairman and will announce it on Facebook”. The president’s spokesman during the presidential election, Wang Chaoqiu, responded on the radio program on the 7th, saying, “There is no such thing, there will not be any announcement today, as for (Korea Yu) election or not, still in the evaluation stage, once the decision will naturally explain to everyone.”
The KMT announced on the 7th by Secretary General Lee Gan-lung that the party chairman election will be held on June 3 to 4 to collect forms; June 7 to 8 to register; and July 24 to vote. So far, KMT Chairman Jiang Qichen has proposed that he will seek re-election, and Sun Moon School President Zhang Yazhong has also stated his candidacy. However, former KMT chairman Chu Li-Lun is still not relieved about whether to run for the election; the eldest son of former KMT chairman Lien Chan and chairman of the KMT think tank Lien Sheng-Wen said that he has to gather friends’ opinions before deciding.
In a poll on national politics conducted by Taiwan’s Belle Epoque in March this year, the question “Who is the most suitable candidate for KMT chairman? The results of this question showed that the highest score was 53% (53.2%) for Chu Li-Lun, followed by 24.8% (24.4%) for Jiang Qichen, and third place (17.3%) for Kuo-Yu, followed by Lien Sheng-Wen and Chang Yazhong.
After losing by 2.65 million votes to incumbent President Tsai Ing-wen in the 2020 presidential election for the Kuomintang, he almost disappeared from Taiwan’s political scene. He was later removed from office by the people of Kaohsiung because of his perceived lack of interest in the municipal election for president. But in the battle for the party president, K.U. is still the hottest topic of conversation.
The popularity of the party is lagging behind, and it is not good for the KMT to run for the presidency.
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to the public. The more popular he is, the deeper blue the label of the KMT will be, and the greater the distance from the middle voters and the young group will be.
The first thing you need to do is to get the best out of it. Because these old faces from the past are not future-proof to the people, and the people have given them all a chance in the past.”
The professor of Political Science Research Institute of Taiwan Normal University, Qu Zhaoxiang, pointed out in an interview with this station that Korea Yu has certain fans which is unquestionable, but not necessarily all of them are KMT members, and it is hard to judge whether Korean fan party members are enough to get Korea Yu elected as KMT chairman. However, one thing is certain, even if Korea Yu is not elected, for the whole chairman of the board will have full influence.
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers. That is, those who support him are very supportive, but those who oppose him are also very opposed, and he is a controversial political figure.”
The traditional KMT members were considered to be more blue than the general voters’ structural position in the past, which also affects the candidate who intends to run for the party chairmanship, whether to continue to embrace the “1992 Consensus” in the China policy discourse.
The DPP’s “United States against China” is affirmed by the new KMT chairman’s cross-strait advocacy has become the key
Qu Zhaoxiang analysis, the so-called deep blue party members account for a significant proportion, but not necessarily a majority. From the perspective of the existing candidates, in addition to Korea Yu’s “1992 Consensus” idea and Zhang Yazhong’s “one China, three constitutions” tend to be more in the spirit of the KMT’s traditional cross-strait discourse, Jiang Qichen and Zhu Liliun may not, and the final output will certainly affect the future political direction. The final output will certainly influence the future political direction.
The observation of Dai Li’an points out that Jiang Qichen, when he was elected party chairman, said that the “1992 Consensus” was a bit old, but then the KMT elders, including Ma Ying-jeou, criticized it, and Jiang Qichen went backward, so there will be conflicts within the KMT on different lines, which is what the KMT has to face, and if it cannot be resolved, the KMT’s 2024 election will have an impact. The election will have an impact.
The DPP has been affected by some of the internal issues, but their popularity is still high, that is, from the 2019 Hong Kong anti-sending campaign, until the U.S. elections, to the outbreak of the epidemic. The DPP ‘United States anti-China’ this line, so that the DPP in the hearts of the public support, or in a relatively leading position.”
Dai Li’an reminded that when the “1992 Consensus” was made by the other side of the Taiwan Strait, it was not the same as the KMT’s past claim. China believes that the “1992 Consensus” is the “One China” principle, and this part of the space is limited, making it increasingly difficult for the KMT. Although the KMT’s more prestigious local chiefs, including Hou Youyi and Lu Hsiu-yen, do not touch the sensitive cross-strait issues, this is an issue that the KMT will have to face in the general election.
