Keelung Mayor Xie Guoliang is facing a recall, with the group 'Mountain Sea Civilian Demolition Action' claiming the second petition phase has passed the threshold and will be submitted on July 5. The KMT has countered by targeting the recall of DPP-affiliated Keelung City Councilor Tong Ziwei and councilor Zhang Haohan. Former Keelung Mayor and DPP Secretary-General Lin Youchang questioned the actions, asking what the DPP councilors did wrong and the legitimacy of the recall. Lin criticized the KMT's move as strange, highlighting the focus on political conflict rather than rational thought, likely to be rejected by citizens. Lin further commented on the shifting blame tactics and cited delays in projects under Xie's administration.
