據了解,楊悟空為現任前進黨主席,橫跨宗教、環保公益與多場地方及中央選舉,在花蓮深耕多年,成立近十個不同的宗教協會例如社團法人中華佛教全球供佛齋僧功德會、台灣綠能抗暖化協會、財團法人彌陀文教基金會等,並擔任理事長、董事長之職,檢調人員懷疑被告楊悟空利用這些協會收受資金,並把這些原本應用於基金會、協會用途的公益款項,挪為個人選舉資金使用。

Senior media person Huang Weihan pointed out that the latest polls for the New Taipei mayoral election showed that DPP candidate Su Qiaohui was leading KMT candidate Li Sichuan by 13.1 percentage points. He believed that this was the result of the overflow of the DPP's "ocean current" and had turned into an electoral tsunami. He called on the blue camp to recognize the facts instead of blindly denying the poll results.

U.S. President Trump said that Taiwan agreed to purchase 30% of the natural gas in the Alaska LNG project and invest an additional US$4.4 billion in the next 20 years. Kuomintang Secretary-General Xu Yuzhen asked the government to send the complete assessment report to Congress for strict review, questioning the Lai government's acceptance of the U.S. request in full. He also pointed out that the Executive Yuan's additional budget included 180.9 billion yuan to compensate for the price difference of Taipower and China National Petroleum Corporation and 233.8 billion yuan to increase investment in China National Petroleum Corporation. He asked why it was not included in the 2016 budget review.

The Taiwan Youth Democracy Association has joined forces with multiple youth groups and university student unions to launch the "2026 Youth Democracy Return Home Train Fundraising Action". It uses the online platform flying V to raise transportation funds and arrange special buses to return home, lowering the threshold for young people from other places who are unable to participate in local elections due to transportation costs and difficulty in finding tickets, and helping young people return home to vote.

Shen Boyang, the Taipei mayoral candidate of the Democratic Progressive Party, accepted an exclusive interview with Zhao Shaokang and stated that he would not resign as a legislator. He believed that municipal issues are mostly people's livelihood issues and usually do not encounter situations where the gap between positions is too large. He emphasized that he is a flexible person and will consult with the opposition parties.

Hong Kong residents Ju Juexian and Lin Qing entrusted Taiwan's credit reporting chief Zheng Yongjin to follow and secretly photograph the Democratic Progressive Party's Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang. The case involved the Chinese Communist Party's transnational suppression. After investigation, prosecutors discovered the flow of funds and the behind-the-scenes command of a retired Hong Kong police officer. Both Shen Boyang's personal information and the whereabouts of his four-year-old daughter were obtained, highlighting the inadequacy of Taiwan's laws in regulating cross-border repression.

Chen Binhua, spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of China, announced that the company "VWAY CO.LTD" associated with the father of the Democratic Progressive Party's Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang will be punished and prohibited from conducting any transactions with Chinese companies and individuals. The move was because the company was accused of circumventing previous sanctions against "Trillion Co., Ltd." The trade volume in June last year was nearly US$700,000. Shen Boyang denied the accusation and said that his family members were doing business in Ecuador. The report was a rehash of old rumors.
