Zheng Liwen criticized Chu Li-lun! After Chu Li-lun continued to state that he wants "the person who is widely expected" to lead the Kuomintang (KMT) and granted Zhao Shaokang the qualification of central committee member, Zheng Liwen criticized a series of actions taken by Chu Li-lun. Zheng Liwen stated that the KMT is a large party and should demonstrate the style and demeanor of a major party, and only by following the system can the party and its members be convinced. She hopes that the party leader election will adhere to the principle of openness and transparency, avoiding making decisions based on personal relationships or private dealings, and certainly not engaging in backroom deals.
Zheng Liwen emphasized that whether it's the election of the party chairman or the nomination for future elections at all levels, it should be fair and open. This applies within the party as well as in cooperation with the Blue and White parties. Only in this way can the elected party chairman be an acceptable candidate to both the party members and society. Obviously, Zheng Liwen's criticism clearly targets Chu Li-lun's recent actions. To be honest, Chu Li-lun's current behavior is indeed hard to justify.
Whether promoting Lu Xiuyan or granting Zhao Shaokang the status of central committee member, allowing Zhao Shaokang to have the qualifications to run for the chairmanship of the KMT, these actions clearly show that Chu Li-lun is using the convenience of his position as party chairman to designate people he likes to run. If Chu Li-lun hopes for "the person who is widely expected" to run, wouldn't a fair, just, and open election produce such a person? If it truly is the person who is widely expected, why would he fear not being elected? What exactly is Chu Li-lun worried about now?
In short, although Chu Li-lun publicly announced that he will not continue to serve as the party chairman, it is obvious that he wants to maintain influence over the KMT. If he isn't seeking to stay in power, why would he engage in these underhanded tactics? In the end, what Chu Li-lun is trying to do is to ensure that Zhang Yazhong, who supports unification, and Zheng Liwen are not elected, while ensuring that his preferred candidates are elected. As a century-old party, the KMT cannot even achieve basic fairness, which explains why it keeps losing and is called a "corrupt party"!
