In preparation for the Democratic Progressive Party's biennial party position election on July 21, a significant shift in party factional power dynamics is expected, as the pro-Lai faction is projected to secure over half of the central standing committee seats, solidifying its position as the largest force within the party. This marks a challenge for the pro-Tsai faction, which is facing a decline in party delegate seats. With smaller factions declaring support for the Lai camp, a reshuffling of power dynamics within the party is underway, with the rise of the Lai faction and the decline of the Tsai faction becoming more evident.

After 10 years of soaring house prices and inflation, luxury home appraisal standards have remained unchanged, causing market distortion. As an example, in Kaohsiung, for a total price above 40 million, only 40% can be loaned, making it difficult to exchange homes, especially in the case of townhouses, where preparing 24 million in cash may be necessary. Limited by loan restrictions, builders can only determine size by dividing the total price, leading to smaller properties. This lack of adjustment in recognition standards has caused difficulties for those wanting to exchange homes, with individuals either lacking the required cash or being unwilling to invest a significant amount. The situation has led to forced segregation of multiple generations within families. Various suggestions have been made to address these issues, including revising the luxury home appraisal standards and encouraging reasonable home exchanges to normalize the housing market.
