Xie Ligong, former secretary-general of the Kuomintang Party, confirmed his support for Tong Ziwei and cross-party cooperation to fight for the reversal of Keelung

The Keelung mayoral candidate Tong Ziwei of the Democratic Progressive Party has received cross-party support. Mayor Lin Youchang returned from the United States more than 10 days before the election to support the election. Xie Ligong, the former secretary-general of the People’s Party, confirmed today that he will support Tong Ziwei. Tong Ziwei and Xie Ligong will formally announce their common policies and practices in the near future.

In addition to the support of former Kuomintang Speaker Huang Jingtai and party cadres, Tong Ziwei also has the support of People's Party Chairman James Soong. Former Mayor Lin Youchang has been accompanying Tong Ziwei non-stop on street sweeps since his recent return to China. Kuomintang Secretary-General Xie Ligong recently wrote "Ocean Currents Meet, Childlike Heart Marches Forward" on Threads and wore a light green vest, sparking discussion on whether he supports Tong Ziwei.

Tong Ziwei said today that Xie Ligong is also from Keelung, and his appeal is "We are all Keelung people." Xie once ran for mayor of Keelung. He proposed a policy and political opinion for this ocean city that was also recognized by Xie, and new policies and practices will be announced together in the near future.

Xie Ligong came forward today to confirm his support for Tong Ziwei. He said that he found Tong Ziwei to be a very serious person who loves Keelung very much. He also discussed many of Keelung's political views with him and also referred to some of his ideas when he ran for mayor in the past. He also felt that Tong was very capable of execution and good at communicating with others, so he gave up his partisan ideas and supported someone who could do things for Keelung.

Xie Ligong said that he has contacted many good friends in private, and they also agree with Tong Ziwei who can transcend party affiliation. In the next 10 days, everyone will work together.

Xie Ligong said that he and Tong Ziwei discussed policies related to the marine industry, services for new residents, etc., and would make a more complete report to everyone in the future.

Xie Ligong also ran for mayor on behalf of the Kuomintang, but Mayor Xie Guoliang never discussed relevant political opinions with him.

Xie Guoliang was sweeping the streets in Anle Market today. When asked whether Xie Ligong would support Tong Ziwei, he only responded "thank you."
