TPP’s Ko Wen-je rallies for change in Taichung

TAICHUNG (TVBS News) — Taiwan People's Party (TPP) presidential candidate Ko Wen-je held a rally in Taichung on Saturday night (Jan. 6), urging his supporters to help Taiwan transcend traditional Blue and Green politics and "create a historical miracle."

The rally took place in the Dali District and was attended by Ko, TPP's Taichung Legislator candidate Tsai Pi-ru, local party branch head Chiang He-shu, and several other TPP legislative candidates. The event drew a large crowd chanting slogans, demonstrating strong support for Ko.

During his speech, Ko expressed gratitude, acknowledging that the TPP is currently short on resources but emphasizing that they wouldn't have reached this point without everyone's efforts. He reassured the audience that victory is only "a mile away."

Addressing infrastructural developments, Ko asserted that the city could significantly improve its transportation systems. This includes better planning for Taichung Port, Taichung International Airport, the Blue Line of Taichung Metro, and Taichung High-Speed Rail Transit.

Touching on Central Taiwan's industries, Ko stated that while key players like the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC) are crucial, Taiwan cannot solely rely on this entity. He highlighted the potential of other local industries, including the precision machinery sector in Taichung and the tech corridor in the Mt. DaDu area.

Emphasizing the need for the government to address day-to-day problems faced by the citizens, such as transportation, the economy, and air pollution, Ko questioned whether having the Kuomintang (KMT) in power would effectively address these issues.

In his appeal to voters, Ko suggested that this election offers a choice about Taiwan's future direction. He urged the public to set aside traditional blue-green political divides and embrace a new political future. Valorizing the national emblem as belonging to the people, not a political party, Ko emphasized the importance of focusing on the electorate's daily concerns.
