The New Taipei mayoral election is heating up. Kuomintang candidate Li Sichuan established the Yunlin Association today (4th). Yunlin County Mayor Zhang Lishan went north to support the event. People at the scene hugged, shook hands, and took photos together in a warm atmosphere. During her speech, Zhang Lishan vomited her bitterness and revealed that she was often smeared. She even took the initiative to ask her fellow villagers, "Do Li Sichuan, Zhang Jiajun and I look like gangsters? Is Yunlin the hometown of the gangsters?" She said that people from the south went out to work hard and did not want to be looked down upon. They showed a strong base in the face of evil forces but were repeatedly smeared. She called on the 800,000 fellow villagers to unite and support Li Sichuan.
Li Sichuan established the Yunlin Hometown Association today. Zhang Lishan went to the platform early in the morning and gathered cadres from the Yunlin Hometown Association in New Taipei District to support her. In addition to canvassing votes for Li Sichuan, Zhang Lishan also tried her best to support her niece Zhang Jiajun, who wants to take over and run for Yunlin County Magistrate. There were constant shouts of "frozen garlic" at the scene.
In her speech, Zhang Lishan pointed out that Li Sichuan, like the Yunlin folks, is a child born in the south. He was born in a fishing village and has no prominent family background. He can best understand the hard work of the grassroots. She detailed that Li Sichuan has a rich engineering background, with experience as a grassroots civil servant, Taipei County, Kaohsiung City and Taipei City. She praised his engineering expertise in solving the problem of the Dome, bright lights, smooth roads and smooth communication, and a person who has the ability to integrate the big pattern of the North-North Base.
Zhang Lishan said that there are more than 800,000 Yunlin folks in New Taipei City. They work hard and endure hardships with a simple and simple mood. Just like Li Sichuan, they work hard step by step and work very hard. He is not arrogant or exaggerated at all, he is down-to-earth in his work, and he upholds his conscience and morality in everything he does.
Changing the topic, Zhang Lishan complained bitterly about Li Sichuan's election, which was full of incitement, smear and baseless accusations. Zhang Lishan laughed at herself for coming from the past, and asked the audience, "Li Sichuan has been innocent and serious all his life, but he was disgraced as soon as the election came. Do you think he looks like a gangster? Does Zhang Jiajun and I look like a gangster? Have Yunlin folks always been the hometown of gangsters? None!" In the past, "people in the limelight" worked hard from Yunlin to the north. In order not to be looked down upon, they had to unite and show courage in the face of evil forces, but they were often discredited by others. She called on the more than 800,000 Yunlin people in New Taipei to show their love and righteousness and unite to canvass for votes for both Li Sichuan and Zhang Jiajun to be elected.
In his speech, Li Sichuan thanked the Yunlin Association for its long-term support, saying bluntly that if New Taipei develops, the greatest strength will be the contributions of the Yunlin folks. He admitted that taking over from Hou Youyi was very stressful. Even his son once advised him that "having served as three deputy mayors is equivalent to 1.5 mayors, there is no need to re-elect." However, he lives in New Taipei City. Taking over the post is not to take over the position or become an official, but to contribute 40 years of experience to New Taipei City in the final stage of his public career.
Li Sichuan proposed a construction blueprint, advocating connecting Xike, Nanruan, and Neike all the way to Beishike to create an AI high-tech and transportation corridor. He also promoted the Tamsui Science Park, Shulin Arena City, and Lushe Bridge to connect the North and North Tao MRT networks to create a 30-minute living circle. He also reminded the elders of the hometown association to use LINE to collect votes for him and Zhang Jiajun to avoid cold calls being regarded as scams and strive to win the election.
