Dissatisfaction rises as KMT, TPP announce collaboration

TAIPEI (TVBS News) — Taiwan People's Party (TPP) Ko Wen-je's campaign spokesperson, Chen Chih-han, expressed discontentment on Thursday (Nov. 16) regarding the announcement of collaboration between the Kuomintang (KMT) and the TPP but emphasized the importance of the party's objectives. 

However, uncertainty remains over whether she may resign.

A day earlier, both parties conducted their second negotiation and decided to jointly compete in the 2024 presidential elections, with KMT candidate Hou Yu-ih pairing with TPP candidate Ko Wen-je. 

This sparked dissatisfaction among the supporters and staff from supporters of the TPP; however, he acknowledged their concerns during a press conference on Thursday.

Ko said he initially thought the minor poll differences would not matter. However, he worries that placing the Ko-Hou and Hou-Ko pairs against competitors might considerably reduce their distinction, potentially erasing their leading advantage.

Despite the shock of the collaboration decision, Chen believes that most of the party's teams and volunteers understand Ko's predicament. 

Rumors about dissatisfaction leading to the resignation of Vivian Huang persisted following yesterday's announcement. Still, Ko's campaign chief of staff clarified during a policy press conference that no resignation notice was given.

Huang urged everyone to fully support the TPP, clarifying that all senior members share the same determination to win the forthcoming elections.
