Less than 100 days before the nine-in-one election at the end of the year, the Kuomintang held a district-wide vote allocation for the first time in the Taipei City Council election. It also reached a consensus with Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan not to support individual candidates of the Kuomintang Party and to focus on joint campaigning. It was reported that some members of the Kuomintang Party were dissatisfied and acted like a charity. In response, Taipei City Speaker and KMT North City Party Committee Chairman Dai Xiqin said that this move was by no means a charity or suppression, but based on ideas to fight against the green camp. Under the blue-white structure, "brothers climb the mountain and work together", hoping to seek to maximize the number of seats for both parties in an objective and reasonable way.
Dai Xiqin attended the premiere of "Talking History with Parents" held by Kuomintang legislator Luo Zhiqiang today. In an interview before the meeting, he pointed out that this is certainly not charity and has nothing to do with charity. It is based on the combination of the Blue and White concept. We hope that by jointly fighting against the domineering rule of the Democratic Progressive Party, we will not only cooperate in the Legislative Yuan, but also that under the leadership of Chiang Wanan, Taipei City will also implement quite a few major policies and bills in a tacit understanding.
Dai Xiqin said that under the blue-white framework, all KMT Taipei City Council nominees, whether current or newcomers, can be understood by everyone. When brothers climb mountains, they still have to work hard individually to maximize the number of blue and white seats. This is a common goal. He is very understandable and appreciates the understanding of the KMT nominee. Of course, he also hopes that the White camp will understand that there is no intention to suppress or use charity to cooperate with Blue and White, but hopes to use the most objective and reasonable method to maximize both sides' seats.
The media asked if the People's Party member Xiaoji now shared that he would vote for the People's Party candidate from 0 to 9. Is this a mockery of the Kuomintang? Dai Xiqin responded that the People's Party only nominated one candidate in the six constituencies. For the People's Party, of course, it is to concentrate votes on every candidate nominated in each district. This is a matter of course and fully respected. The Kuomintang has more nomination seats, so it needs to allocate votes. We hope the People's Party will understand.
Dai Xiqin also said that he was very grateful to Huang Guochang, chairman of the People's Party, and good friends of the People's Party for their understanding. There may be some people's party chicks or internal supporters who feel that this has become a kind of "charity", but he would like to emphasize again that precisely because he treats Blue and White cooperation very carefully, in order to truly implement Blue and White cooperation, we must communicate openly and honestly with each other about elections, auxiliary elections, and platforms, and understand each other's true thoughts.
Dai Xiqin mentioned that this is why we will carefully consult all party nominees, whether they are current members or newcomers, for their ideas, and implement the specific actions everyone hopes for under the premise of the blue and white cooperation framework, and let the People’s Party understand them. During the process, it is precisely because everyone can be open and honest, open the door and take the high road to express their true thoughts in order to achieve the goal of "maximizing the number of Blue and White seats", so there are candid practices and supporting facilities. I hope that friends from the White Camp will understand and thank you for your understanding. We will continue to work towards Blue and White cooperation in the future.
