With 19 days remaining in the New Taipei City mayoral election, Kuomintang candidate Li Sichuan went to the Wugu and Taishan areas today to conduct a street sweep with a convoy of "All Rivers". The weather was wet, cold and rainy. Li Sichuan put on a thick coat and showed the No. 3 OK hand sign to greet citizens and friends. Many people along the way also made O K sign and waving the national flag to express support. Li Sichuan emphasized that he will continue to visit the 29 districts, seize every opportunity to greet the villagers, win the support of citizens and friends with specific political opinions, and implement them one by one after he becomes mayor in the future to create a living environment where he can live and work in peace and contentment.

Li Sichuan was sweeping the streets in his vehicle today. He was accompanied by Wugu election general chairman Chen Sanji and legislator Hong Mengkai respectively. New Taipei City Councilors Chen Mingyi, Cai Shujun, and parliamentary candidates Cai Peicheng and Cheng Chenghong also rode in their respective chariots to accompany them to vote. Before the motorcade set off, he was re-elected as a four-term Taipei County Councilor and Wugu Lin Yiyi, a local elder who has been involved in the work for many years, also showed up to support. During the street sweeping, some villagers looked out of their windows to wave hello and express their support. Some enthusiastic villagers took advantage of the motorcade to stop and stepped forward to high-five Li Sichuan. Some people came to ask for autographs, and the atmosphere was warm.

Li Sichuan visited Wugu Hesheng Palace on the way and was welcomed by the temple authorities and hundreds of villagers. Li Sichuan said that he was grateful to the many supporters who spontaneously came to cheer at the meeting point before the motorcade set off. He also thanked every villager for his enthusiastic cheering. Every wave and high-five of support added a lot of strength to him.

In terms of construction in Wugu and Taishan areas, Li Sichuan emphasized that in the future, he will fully promote the "Wutai Light Rail" and "Taiban Light Rail" with the highest administrative and engineering efficiency, open up transportation connections in Luzhou, Wugu, Taishan, Xinzhuang, Banqiao and other areas, and upgrade the transportation in Wugu and Taishan.
