Three major political parties in Taiwan, including the ruling Democratic Progressive Party and the opposition Kuomintang, have been engaging in debates and public outreach events amidst discussions on expanding parliamentary powers. However, Taipei Mayor and People First Party chairman Ko Wen-je's call for a televised debate was met with criticism from DPP Secretary-General Lin Yu-chang, who called it 'unthinkable'. Despite the backlash, Ko maintained his stance while criticizing the DPP for avoiding a confrontation. In response, DPP Policy Committee Executive Wang Yi-chuan expressed disbelief at Ko's actions, questioning his motives and ability to engage in political discourse. Wang also questioned Ko's decision to challenge Lin, emphasizing the need for direct engagement with higher party officials. The political dynamics have led to tensions and public disagreements within the Taiwanese political landscape, with various parties gearing up for upcoming challenges and potential power struggles.
