Wen Shizheng, candidate for Nantou County Magistrate of the Democratic Progressive Party, attended the inauguration meeting of the campaign headquarters of county councilor Chen Yijun seeking re-election on the 7th.

The nine-in-one election campaign has entered the countdown stage. Wen Shizheng, candidate for Nantou County Magistrate of the Democratic Progressive Party, has been working non-stop today (7th). He has attended the inauguration meeting of the campaign headquarters of the party’s county councilor and citizen representative candidates, and conducted a motorcade sweep in Caotun Town to solicit votes. Tomorrow (8th) afternoon, Wen Shizheng will hold a symposium on "Warm New Women's Power, Nantou Forward", inviting party female township mayors, county councilors and township citizen representative candidates to the same stage to demonstrate the momentum of women's power to unite to win the election.

Faced with the continued population decline in Nantou County, Wen Shizheng has successively put forward a number of political opinions on medical care, industry, transportation and the welfare of the elderly since he announced his candidacy. In terms of young people returning to their hometowns and encouraging childbirth, he advocated increasing the interest subsidy for young people's first home purchases by 80,000 yuan, the rental subsidy by 2,000 yuan, and the marriage and childbirth subsidy of 80,000 yuan. He also promised that on the basis of the central government's monthly childcare subsidy of 5,000 yuan, Nantou County would provide an additional 2,000 yuan to actively create a livable environment.

In response to the inconvenience of public transportation in Nantou, Wen Shizheng emphasized that priority will be given to replenishing passenger trains after 8 p.m. It is planned that the county government will subsidize operators to delay the closing of flights, so that county residents who go to Taichung to commute, go to school, or take the high-speed rail to return home can still take public transportation home at night, reducing the burden on their families.

Yesterday morning, Wen Shizheng first went to Puli Town to attend the inauguration meeting of the campaign headquarters of county councilor Chen Yijun who is seeking re-election. He then rushed to Nantou City and Caotun Town to support citizen representative candidate Shen Qixiu and county councilor candidate Cai Mingxuan. In the afternoon, he attended the inauguration meeting of the campaign headquarters of county councilor candidate Liao Kunyao. In the evening, he arranged a motorcade to sweep the streets in Caotun to solicit votes.

Wen Shizheng's schedule tomorrow is still tight. In addition to going to the third market of Zhongxing New Village in Nantou City to sweep the streets again in the morning, the New Wife Care Association will hold a "Warm New Women's Power, Nantou Forward" forum in the afternoon. In addition to party female candidates gathering to build momentum, legislator Luo Meiling and Deputy Minister of Health and Welfare Lin Jingyi are also invited to participate to discuss issues such as maternal and child rights and new residents' rights.
