The Taipei mayoral election is tense. Taipei City Party Committee Chairman of the Kuomintang Taipei City Party Committee Dai Xiqin confirmed that Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan’s ban on standing for KMT parliamentary candidates only once has been lifted. Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang of the Democratic Progressive Party was asked today (6th) whether he would ask for benefits from Ko Wenzhe, the founding chairman of the People's Party. He said that anyone who has served in the Taipei City Government is a candidate for requests.

During the Taipei Mayor's TV Debate a few days ago, Chiang Wanan specifically singled out the contribution of former Mayor Ko Wenzhe, which allowed him to continue to govern on a good basis. Recently, he has "passed by" Baiying's campaign headquarters more frequently. Dai Xiqin's attitude has also become more flexible, saying frankly that as the election situation becomes tense, everyone can understand and will make an assessment based on the "overall situation."

Shen Boyang went to Anju Market to sweep the streets today. The media asked him that Jiang Wanan is eager to share the stage with Ke Wenzhe at the "Anxin Parade" on the 14th. In the future, Shen also plans to ask for help or share the stage with Ke Wenzhe? Shen Boyang said that if he had the chance, all the people he had served in the North City Government would be the ones he would seek help from. He also said that it would be great if Ke Wenzhe could combine with Jiang Wanan.

Child abuse in Kaohsiung ranks first among the six cities. Chen Shizhong: Citizens feel that Taipei City is more serious.

Executive Yuan political commissar Chen Shih-chung responded to the controversy over child abuse in Taipei raised by Democratic Progressive Party Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang, believing that it should be due to the fact that several sudden cases in Taipei City have not been fully handled, rather than comparison with other counties and cities. Minister of Health and Welfare Shi Chongliang emphasized that the implementation performance of counties and cities should not be judged purely based on numbers, but the attitude and attention of the city government in handling individual cases should be examined.

Luo Zhiqiang talks about the "five or five waves" of Chiang Wanan's election. Councilor Bai Ying on the platform "wait and see"

Luo Zhiqiang, director-general of Taipei Mayor Chiang Wai-an's campaign and legislator Luo Zhiqiang, said that Chiang Kai-shek's election situation is still a "five-five wave", and the "Safe Taipei. With You and Me" parade will be held on the 14th. In terms of blue-white cooperation, Chiang Wai-an's ban on standing for individual White camp legislators is expected to be lifted. "We will wait and see" before the election platform or the form of cooperation, and the subjectivity of the People's Party must be respected.
