Kuomintang (KMT) presidential candidate Hou Yi-ih and his running mate Chao Shao-kang held a rally in Hualien, drawing a crowd of thousands. Former President Ma Ying-jeou also made an appearance. The event, organized by KMT Legislator Fu Kun-chi, saw around 50,000 participants. Hou emphasized his plans to improve local infrastructure and criticized the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and its vice presidential candidate Hsiao Bi-khim for opposing the island-wide rapid broadband project. KMT Chairman Eric Chu praised the unity displayed in Hualien. The collaboration between Fu and Ma at the rally signifies a reconciled front leading up to the election.

Kuomintang’s presidential candidate Hou Yu-ih respects the decision of Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) presidential candidate Ko Wen-je, regardless of the outcome of the Blue-White alliance. Hou attended an event in Chiayi County with Chiayi County Magistrate Weng Chang-liang and DPP Legislator Tsai Yi-yu. Ko Wen-je announced that he will continue to run as the presidential candidate for the Taiwan People’s Party. Hou chose not to comment on this or on Ko’s meeting with Terry Gou. When asked about a statement by the spokesperson for DPP’s Lai Ching-te that China has no plans to invade Taiwan in 2027 or 2030, Hou questioned whether Lai Ching-te now trusts Xi Jinping. Hou believes in sincere dialogue to minimize risk and restart cross-strait interactions, emphasizing the importance of Taiwan’s own defense capabilities.
