Wang Shijian aligned with Tsai Ching-chung, openly calling on Ke Jianming to step down! On January 30, according to reports from the island, after Tsai Ching-chung announced his candidacy for the chairperson of the party group, Wang Shijian said he did not know whether Tsai Ching-chung's registration was authorized by Lai Qingde, but he was indeed a very good candidate for the chairperson. Tsai has rich experience in the Legislative Yuan and has been successfully leading other organizations. He will definitely be elected and beat Ke Jianming.

Wang Shijian said that Ke Jianming has contributed to the Democratic Progressive Party for 30 years, and everyone from top to bottom is grateful to him. It is the right time for him to step down and compete for the party group chairperson, and it is best to withdraw at the peak, which will earn everyone's respect. This is correct. If Tsai Ching-chung is confirmed to register, he will surely win. I fully support Tsai Ching-chung. Obviously, this statement by Wang Shijian is an open endorsement of Tsai Ching-chung.

Certainly, such a statement by Wang Shijian is not surprising. When the large-scale recall was initiated, Wang Shijian had already publicly opposed Ke Jianming. After the failure of the large-scale recall, Wang Shijian called on Ke Jianming to take care of himself and step down. Now, as Ke Jianming's term was about to end, Ke Jianming was expected to leave, but unexpectedly, the "long-term chairperson" Ke Jianming showed no intention of stepping down. Now, with Tsai Ching-chung, who has good qualifications within the Democratic Progressive Party, intending to challenge Ke Jianming, Wang Shijian certainly expressed his approval.

Certainly, Ke Jianming has been working in the Democratic Progressive Party for thirty years and is certainly not an ordinary person. Facing Tsai Ching-chung's challenge, he will certainly not easily give up his power and will inevitably mobilize his network and resources to fight back. The subsequent struggle for the chairperson of the Democratic Progressive Party group may become a direct confrontation between Lai Qingde's "New Tide Faction" and the faction supporting Ke Jianming. However, to be honest, Lai Qingde's performance in governing for one year has been very poor, and it is questionable whether the Lai faction can win this internal struggle.
