Taiwanese Politicians Threaten Each Other Over Amendments to Election Laws

Reported about 1 year ago

The Kuomintang (KMT) legislative caucus is planning to propose amendments to raise the threshold for recalling public officials, with the key question being whether the People First Party (PFP) lawmakers will support it. In response to warnings from the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) that PFP county and city councilors could be the first to face recalls if they cooperate with the KMT, PFP Chairman Ko Wen-je retorted, questioning why the DPP is not concerned about their own recalls. The tensions stem from ongoing recalls, including one involving the mayor of Keelung, and reflect broader political divisions in Taiwan.
