According to Taiwan's " Zhongshi Electronic News ", a notice recently "Joint Signature initiated by Li Yuanzhe, "Please know the news from fellow villagers at home and abroad" was published by the media. Li Yuanzhe publicly asked Tsai Ing-wen to give up her own private matters and know what she has advanced and retreated, and asked the DPP members to support Lai Ching-te to represent the DPP in participating in the 2020 Taiwan leadership election.
At the beginning of this year, the four major players of Wu Lipei, Peng Mingmin, Gao Junming and Li Yuanzhe jointly issued an open letter calling on Tsai Ing-wen to give up her re-election and hand over her executive power to retreat to the second line. At that time, Tsai responded strongly that "who wants to choose and who doesn't choose is not who has the final say. Just believe in the democratic mechanism."
The current joint letter stated that if you carefully examine the reasons for the DPP’s defeat, you will find that by the 2020 election, these reasons for the defeat will remain intact and still exist. After the defeat, Tsai Ing-wen's actions were examined. In addition to actively going to the countryside and worshiping temples everywhere, many of them were blatant and arbitrary, neither humble nor communicated, which had caused the general public to lose their enthusiasm for support.
The joint letter also mentioned that Tsai's performance in the primary election has caused a severe blow to the DPP's image, and publicly demanded Tsai to give up his own selfishness and know what to advance and retreat. (China Taiwan Network Li Ning)
