Taiwan's "Premier" Cho Yung-tai visited the "Legislative Yuan" this morning to report on and answer questions about the results and impact of the Taiwan-US tariff negotiations. After a joint press conference, the media called out to ask the "Executive Yuan" spokesperson Li Hui-zhi whether she would run for mayor of Hsinchu City. Upon hearing this, Cho turned and pointed to Li Hui-zhi, saying that she should ask her. Li Hui-zhi smiled but did not respond and then entered the assembly hall.
It is understood that the candidate for mayor of Hsinchu City from the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) has not yet been clarified. Previously, Lin Chih-jie, a professor at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, who had high expectations, also declined to run due to concerns about his father's health. However, it was reported that Lai Ching-te favored Wu Guo-zhi, an ophthalmologist in the local area and chairman of the Hsinchu City Trust Taiwan Friends Association, to run. But Wu Guo-zhi stated he had no plans or intention to enter politics. According to a report by a Taiwanese weekly magazine, considering the characteristics of Hsinchu City as an urban area, the voter structure, and the opponent's traits, some within the DPP believe Li Hui-zhi could be a surprise candidate to challenge the current mayor, Ko Hung-an.
