Running for Mayor of Taoyuan? "Backrest Brother" says: anything is possible
Lai Ching-te yesterday, after the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) "Central Executive Committee" meeting, invited DPP legislators "Backrest Brother" to meet, which has been speculated as a consultation on his candidacy for mayor of Taoyuan. "Backrest Brother" responded today, saying that he often discusses current affairs with Lai Ching-te, and yesterday they basically discussed the situation in most constituencies. At present, for the DPP, including Taipei and Taoyuan, seven counties and cities have not yet made nominations. The "Election Committee" and Lai Ching-te are still making the final arrangements, and have discussed some candidates, including his own plans.
"Backrest Brother" also said that he is open to the possibility, saying that at the moment, anything is possible. He must carry out a nationwide campaign for all members of the "Zheng Congress", and he will also support the county and city mayors nominated by the DPP. However, it's not yet the final stage, so let the Election Committee and Lai Ching-te discuss again.
However, he believes that for himself, career planning is not important at all. As a party member, he must abide by the decisions made by the DPP. What to do will be decided finally. There is still time, let everyone discuss again, and let himself think again.
