The paper incident of Taoyuan mayor candidate Lin Zhijian continues to spread. Tsai Ing-wen, a Taiwanese leader who is also the chairman of the Democratic Progressive Party, left the office at around 11:40 noon today (12th) and went to the official residence to hold an election meeting. In response to this, Taiwanese media reported that Lin Zhijian will withdraw from the mayoral election in Taoyuan, and may instead be "legislator" Zheng Yunpeng will play. However, the meeting is still in progress, and the exact result is still to be announced by the Democratic Progressive Party in the afternoon.

DPP Taoyuan mayor candidate Lin Zhijian was deeply involved in serial controversies such as paper gates and court gates, and was even plagiarized by the certified papers of National Taiwan University and revoked Lin's master's degree, which impacted the election situation at the end of the year. Tsai Ing-wen has repeatedly expressed her support for Lin defending her innocence, and has issued a "super-standard order" within the Democratic Progressive Party, which has aroused heated discussions from all walks of life. However, Taiwan's "China Times News Network" reported today that Lin has confirmed his withdrawal from the election and will be replaced by Zheng Yunpeng, a "legislator" of the Taoyuan constituency of the Democratic Progressive Party.

DPP Taoyuan mayor candidate Lin Zhijian accepted an exclusive interview with Zheng Hongyi yesterday. Faced with the controversy of the "paper gate", he said that the overwhelming attacks from the media were a great torment for his family, especially his parents in their 70s. "Mom choked up after just a few words, and even cried... The second son also asked me not to choose Taoyuan mayor!" He felt very reluctant, and reiterated that he did not copy and wanted to fight for his innocence.

As for Tsai Ing-wen's movements, it is understood that relevant people are currently holding a meeting at her official residence. (Lin Jingxian/editor)
