In the Kaohsiung mayoral election at the end of the year, who the Blue Camp will send to challenge the current DPP mayor Chen Qimai has become one of the Blue Camp headaches. Recently, Ke Zhien, the executive director of the Kuomintang think tank, Yang Zhiliang, the former health director, Chen Yuzhen, the legislator of Kinmen, and Li Sichuan and Ye Kuangshi, the former deputy mayors of Gao City, have all been named. Regarding whether he intends to run for election, Yang Zhiliang said for the first time that “as long as the party needs it, as a lifelong party member, I have an obligation to undertake it”, and revealed that he will go to Kaohsiung to visit the speaker Zeng Liyan. Li Yuwen, deputy chairman of the Kaohsiung City Party Department of the Kuomintang, said that Yang is willing to stand up for election, representing that the Kuomintang still has very good talents.
Yang Zhiliang talked regarding the Kaohsiung mayoral election on the “UFO Network” radio program “Sound of Taiwan” today (13th), and was asked if the Kuomintang was willing to nominate him in the end, would he be willing to fight? Yang said that he has taught at Gao Medical University for many years, and he has also bought a house in Kaohsiung. He has deep feelings for Kaohsiung. “If everyone thinks that I am suitable, of course I will do my best.” Yang also said that he is a lifelong member of the Kuomintang. Even if he, like many others, has some criticisms of the party’s practices, he still has to respect the party’s mechanism and will not escape from the party’s mechanism.
Yang Zhiliang emphasized: “If everyone wants me to come, I will definitely do my best. I believe that I am much more capable than Chen Qimai!” Come to PK with the students.”
Li Yuwen said in an interview with Zhongshi News Network that Yang Zhiliang is willing to stand up for election, representing that the Kuomintang still has excellent talents, especially the recent failure of the Tsai government to prevent the epidemic. Yang has a medical background to represent the Kuomintang in the election of Kaohsiung mayor. It is rare for him to have a personality that dares to speak out and fight, has a firm stand for the party, and is willing to make selfless contributions. He is also a lifelong party member. However, Li Yuwen also said that there are also younger local candidates willing to fight, which is very different from the situation where no one wanted to vote at the beginning. In the end, it was decided to respect the arrangement of the Party Central Committee.
Kuomintang Chairman Zhu Lilun, who just finished his visit to the United States, was recently asked regarding the candidates for Kaohsiung mayor election. Zhu Lilun promised that following returning to China, he would definitely propose a candidate who can win the approval and support of the most Kaohsiung citizens.
