The DPP has repeatedly claimed that the recall of Keelung Mayor Xie Guoliang was a so-called "citizen awakening". On the 23rd, the KMT went to the supervisory agency to report that the recall group "Keelung Youth Front Association" was involved in illegal fundraising. Huang Shendong, spokesman for the KMT Keelung City Party Committee, revealed on the 24th that the founding chairman of the association was Zhang Zhihao, a DPP Keelung City Councilor. He criticized the DPP's behavior, saying that they lost the election and wanted to re-elect. Mayor Xie Guoliang's term was not even halfway through, and they were rudely mobilizing hatred and recalling him.

Zhang Zhihao

The recall of Xie Guoliang will be voted on on October 13. The votes of approval must reach 76,979. The blue camp has put all its efforts to consolidate Liang and prevent the domino effect. Regarding the recall of Keelung Mayor Xie Guoliang, DPP Secretary-General Lin Youchang said that the recall is the awakening of "citizen power" and the DPP will not intervene. However, Huang Shendong revealed on the 24th that the "Keelung Youth Front Association" was the one that raised funds for the "removal of Liang" group, and the founding chairman of this association is Zhang Zhihao.

Huang Shendong said that on the 23rd, he and his party predecessors went to the supervisory agency to report that the "beam removal" group had illegally accepted political donations by using the fundraising platform. Many good friends later displayed the "Conan spirit" to investigate who the "Keelung Youth Front Association" that raised funds on behalf of the proposal was and what its relationship was with the recall leader "Shanhai Citizens' Beam Removal Action."

Huang Shendong pointed out that a netizen shared a call received on social media in mid-July. He called back and found that it was the "Keelung Youth Front Association", but the Whoscall was marked as "Chaliang". After inquiries from netizens, the "Chaliang" group also admitted that the "Keelung Youth Front Association" helped invite the first-stage proposers to sign again in the second stage.

Huang Shendong said that in 2018, when the media interviewed Zhang Zhihao, they directly stated that Zhang Zhihao was the founding chairman of the "Keelung Youth Front Association", but when the "Central Election Commission" announced the Keelung recall case, Zhang Zhihao said that "respect for citizens' exercise of rights."

Huang Shendong said that after a long journey, it turned out that the Shanhai Citizens' "Beam Removal" Action, a recall group claiming to be composed of ordinary citizens, had a close relationship with the "Keelung Youth Front Association" founded by Zhang Zhihao, so close that they could share phone numbers and assist in illegally accepting political donations. Zhang Zhihao even hypocritically claimed "respect" and pretended not to be familiar with them.

Huang Shendong criticized that the DPP's behavior proved that they wanted to run again after losing the election. Mayor Xie Guoliang's term was not even halfway through, but they were so ungracious as to mobilize hatred and recall him. I believe that the eyes of Keelung citizens are sharp and they will not be deceived by the DPP's childish tricks again.
