The story discusses the political figures from the Kuomintang (KMT) and Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) who have sparked public speculation with metaphorical references to a ＂train.＂ The concept of the Blue-White Coalition, a topic gaining attention, is at the center of this development. TPP presidential candidate Ko Wen-je shared a photo on Facebook of himself enjoying a Taiwan Railways boxed lunch while traveling on the Puyuma Express. In contrast, KMT presidential candidate Hou Yu-ih declared a few days ago that ＂the train will not wait for those who are late,＂ urging Ko to make a decision on their collaboration.

Fifteen regional leaders of the Kuomintang (KMT) have petitioned for their party to collaborate with the Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) for the 2024 elections. The petition expresses support for one of two proposals put forward by KMT Chairman Eric Chu. The presidential and vice presidential candidates would be Hou Yu-ih and Ko Wen-je if the KMT is victorious, or Ko and Hou if the TPP wins. The two systems, based on the Japanese or German model, are determined by comparative polls. The KMT aims to achieve democratic reform in Taiwan through this collaboration to avoid a single dominant party.

Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) chairman Ko Wen-je confirmed that his lunch with Terry Gou involved talks on the depreciation of the Japanese Yen and how the New Taiwan dollar should respond. Ko clarified that this was a financial topic he discussed with Gou during their spare time, not a discussion about exchanging positions. The lunch took place after an event at the Hulu Temple, and they did not invite Kuomintang’s Hou Yu-ih, who had no successful meeting outcomes with Ko on the KMT-TPP alliance. Ko shared the details of his meeting with Gou after a press conference at his campaign headquarters, highlighting that frequent dialogues often turn acquaintances into friends.

Kuomintang (KMT) presidential candidate Hou Yu-ih visited the Shihlin Hulu Temple and emphasized that regardless of who becomes president, they must act in Taiwan’s best interest.

Gou emphasized peace across the Taiwan Strait and facilitating Taiwan’s economic prosperity.

In celebration of Guanyin Bodhisattva’s Renunciation Day, a memorial event was held at Shilin Hulu Temple, attended by KMT candidate Hou, TPP candidate Ko, independent candidate Terry Gou, and Taipei Mayor Chiang Wan-an. Negotiations for a KMT-TPP joint ticket are set for tomorrow, and both parties emphasized the need for exploring new options and not disappointing the public’s expectations.

The latest presidential poll by Newtalk shows that Ko Wen-je of the Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) has surpassed Lai Ching-te of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), while Hou Yu-ih of the Kuomintang (KMT) has also gained support. Ko leads Lai by 0.52%, and Lai’s lead over Hou is only 0.08%, indicating a closely contested election. However, if Terry Gou were to enter the race, the rankings would change significantly. Lai would still be first, but Hou would move up to second, Ko would drop to third, and Gou would trail at the end with 9.39%. This is the first time in past polls that Hou surpasses Ko.
