On January 20, it was rumored that Jiang Wan'an, the fourth generation of the Chiang family, the grandson of Chiang Ching-kuo, and the current democratic representative of the Chinese Kuomintang, intended to announce his candidacy for mayor of Taipei after the Spring Festival, triggering heated discussions in the political arena. However, Jiang Wan'an said that he would wait for the Chinese Kuomintang to pass the nomination method before announcing it, and he would also announce the election team and campaign organizational structure such as the spokesperson. Because the DPP has not yet decided on a candidate, Jiang Wan'an frankly said that he was indeed "very worried" about Huang Shanshan, the current vice mayor of Taipei City, as a strong opponent. However, as the only "only seedling" in the island's political arena among the descendants of the Chiang family, Jiang Wan'an said that he would not evade the topic of "two Chiang Kai-shek's meritorious deeds", especially Chiang Kai-shek's historical positioning, and would have a clear attitude.

Jiang Wan'an's announcement of his candidacy for mayor of Taipei after the Spring Festival has made difficult preparations

Comprehensive Taiwan media reported that jiang Wan'an was rumored to have dinner with the Taipei City Councilor of the Chinese Kuomintang and the "famous mouths" of the Blue Camp on the 18th, revealing that he would announce his candidacy for mayor of Taipei after the Spring Festival. In this regard, Jiang Wan'an said in an interview with the media on the 19th that the meal is a private gathering of good friends, and he will gather with good friends before the New Year, and everyone will exchange views with each other, and he also listens to everyone's suggestions.

However, Jiang Wan'an has been actively laying out since 2021, and his candidacy has long been a target, announcing that he is only one foot away from the door. Jiang Wan'an, assessing his main campaign rival, Taipei Vice Mayor Huang Shanshan, said that Huang Shanshan is familiar with the municipal government and has strong strength, and that he is indeed "very worried" that although the DPP has not yet determined the final candidate, he is ready to fight a difficult election campaign of "three legs and standing on three feet."

Hao Longbin called for cooperation with the Taiwan People's Party to "resist greening" and Ko Wen-che did not buy it

Hao Longbin, former vice chairman of the Chinese Kuomintang and former mayor of Taipei, said on the 19th that the 2022 election campaign has begun, and the DPP has begun to attack the mayor of Lanying County, so not only the Chinese Kuomintang must be united, but also the opposition parties. He called on the Kuomintang of China to negotiate cooperation with the Taiwan People's Party in the Taipei mayoral election. If the Chinese Nationalist Party wants to win a steady victory in Taipei, cooperation with the Taiwan People's Party is the best way.

However, Ko Wen-che, chairman of the Taiwan People's Party and current mayor of Taipei, does not buy the so-called "blue lilies." Guo Zhengliang, a former democratic deputy of the Democratic Progressive Party, analyzed that there is only one way for the Chinese Kuomintang to impress Ko Wenzhe, that is, whether the 2024 Taiwan regional leadership election is the so-called "courtesy" of Ko Wenzhe and the Taiwan People's Party.

Jiang Wan'an: I have seen Chiang Kai-shek's diary and will face the issue of the Chiang family directly

The descendants of the Chiang family are political labels that Jiang Wan'an cannot fade, and in the face of the DPP's inevitable launch of the so-called "land, sea, and air war." According to paraphrasing, Jiang Wan'an said that he was ready for political offensive and defense, especially with regard to the Issue of the Chiang Family, he would not run away. Jiang Wan'an stressed that he was very interested in and researched the history of the Chiang family, had read Chiang Kai-shek's diary, and he already had some ideas in his mind, and at the same time he also had ideas about the future planning of the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, and would face the issue of the Chiang family directly.
