TAIPEI (TVBS News) — Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) vice-presidential candidate Hsiao Bi-khim emphasized the importance of strength in maintaining Taiwan's status quo and preventing bullying during a speech on Wednesday (Dec. 20).
Speaking at the December plenary of The Third Wednesday Club (San San Fe), Hsiao stressed the need for strength in dialogues to ensure the populace's confidence.
She also discussed U.S.-Taiwan relations, noting that the U.S. has consistently supported maintaining the status quo in the cross-strait situation and opposes the use of force.
