With the ongoing recall of Keelung Mayor Hsieh Kuo-liang led by the civic group 'Mountain and Sea Citizens Dismantling Liang Action,' the Democratic Progressive Party is considering potential candidates in preparation for a successful recall, including DPP council speaker Tong Tzu-wei and former legislator Tsai Shih-ying. Former DPP legislator High Chia-yu, who is a Keelung native, revealed on a recent program that she is prepared to enter the political arena at any time. Should the recall proceed smoothly, the vote could take place as early as September after an estimated 40,000 recall petition signatures are submitted in early July. Hsieh's recall has raised political tensions, including accusations of manipulation from both sides and a proposal to recall Keelung City Council Speaker Tong Tzu-wei by the KMT, triggering public anger and division.}
