Yilan election battle: Lin Guozhang counters factional accusations, Wu Zongxian says he is busy praying for Mazu and will not respond yet

In response to the Kuomintang camp's continuous attack on factional issues and direct accusations that it is the spokesperson of the new trend, DPP Yilan County Mayor candidate Lin Guozhang personally countered today, emphasizing that he has never joined a faction and is "the new wave of enthusiasm in Yilan", and denounced his opponent for violating his promise. KMT candidate Wu Zongxian said that he was busy walking to pray for blessings at the Mazu Cultural Festival, and lamented that he had been slandered by the green camp for more than half a year.

Looking back on his candidacy, Lin Guozhang said that he has always adhered to his original intention since he was recruited in October last year. When he met with Wu Zongxian, he also promised to fight a clean gentleman's battle. Unexpectedly, his opponent could not present a positive vision and instead frequently used despicable means. He called for the election campaign to return to formal competitions such as policies, political opinions and candidate ethics as soon as possible.

Lin Guozhang campaign spokesperson and Yilan mayor candidate Han Ying also angrily pointed out that the mocking and vulgar slogans were openly hung outside the KMT county party headquarters, which were of no standard and were deeply regrettable. Wu Zongxian claimed to lead Yilan on a new path and maintain a clean election style, but in fact he went back to the old path of smearing. This kind of inferior election style will never be recognized by voters.

Han Ying emphasized that if you sincerely care about the good of Yilan and public policy, you should show your true skills in the confrontation. Lin Guozhang has already proposed a number of specific and excellent policy blueprints. The Kuomintang should compete with them with high-quality policies instead of repeatedly using unstyled negative tactics to lower the overall level of democratic elections.

In this regard, Wu Zongxian tried to downplay the political confrontation during the interview, saying that these three days coincided with the Mazu Cultural Festival, and he walked throughout the entire process to pray for the people of the country. The focus was to pray for social peace and resolve conflicts, and hoped that everyone could live and work in peace and contentment. Therefore, he would not respond to political and social issues for the time being.

When asked about the debate between gentlemen, Wu Zongxian vomited his bitterness and said that he had been reviled by the DPP for more than half a year, ranging from military purchases and budgets to drones. "Everyone can see who is throwing dirty water and campaigning for ungentlemen." He has always been patient and adhered to the pace; as for the county party headquarters' plug-in sign, he said he should directly ask the party headquarters.
