The Kuomintang held Taiwan's first joint rally of tens of thousands of people in Yuanlin City, Changhua County today. Changhua County Mayor Wang Huimei, who had not joined the auxiliary election team for a long time, suddenly appeared! She came on stage before the opening of the convention and shouted to supporters that "Taiwan needs nuclear energy to generate electricity." A reporter asked her if she had "returned to the team." She bowed her head and said nothing. During her speech, she only said that "all people support nuclear energy." She stayed at the scene for about 10 minutes, shook hands with Kuomintang Secretary-General Li Qianlong, and county magistrate candidate Wei Pingzheng, and then left.
The conference started at 4 o'clock, and Wang Huimei arrived at 3:30. When she gave her speech, there were less than 200 people in the audience. He said that everyone must stand up on November 28. We support the nuclear power referendum and must agree to it. Let’s work together to protect our homeland and our Taiwan. Come on, Changhua, and Taiwan.
In addition, she would like to express her special thanks to Secretary-General Li Qianlong for leading so many villagers, wishing today’s conference a success and wishing her to come to Changhua more often when she has time.
Wang Huimei entered the venue early and cleverly avoided sharing the stage with Party Chairman Cheng Liwen. It was rare for her to stand side by side with Wei Pingzheng, but the two had zero interaction on stage, at most they shook hands.
