Two charismatic politicians from the pan-blue and pan-green camps, Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Legislator Chiang Wan-an (蔣萬安) and Enoch Wu (吳怡農), deputy chief executive of the Democratic Progressive Party’s (DPP) New Frontier Foundation, recently tried to gain some media exposure. Chiang focused on the Transitional Justice Commission and related legislation, while Wu announced his bid for the position of director of the DPP’s Taipei Chapter and talked about his plans on a radio talk show.
The two gained the attention of the media when they competed for the same electoral district in Taipei in last year’s legislative election. The focus is now on whether they will compete again in next year’s Taipei mayoral election.
