on the 22nd, lian shengwen, vice chairman of the kuomintang, led kaohsiung city councilors huang xiangshu, li meizhen, xu caizhen and others to keelung zhengbin fishing port to support keelung mayor xie guoliang. huang xiangshu said that kaohsiung city had experienced a recall, which caused the city government to run in circles, and hoped that keelung would not face the same situation.

huang xiangshu said yesterday that kaohsiung and keelung are very similar, both are cities with seaports, and kaohsiung is no stranger to recalls. she said that kaohsiung once had its municipal government idled because of a recall, and also had a blue-green confrontation because of a recall, and she did not want keelung to repeat the same mistake.

huang xiangshu pointed out that there was a civil group called "wecare" in kaohsiung, which was actually a group controlled by the dpp. more than four years ago, it instigated the recall of then-kaohsiung mayor han kuo-yu. she questioned that the group promoting the recall in keelung seemed to have a close relationship with the dpp. she believed that this was the dpp's "losing the election but not admitting defeat", so she hoped that keelung citizens would vote against the recall on october 13, so that xie guoliang could continue to fight for keelung.

in response to the accusations made by kaohsiung city councilors, li yanrong, spokesperson for the recall group "shanhai recall liang action," said that the kuomintang has demonstrated what it means to have "only a political party but no people."

the group released three videos yesterday, hoping to raise the online voice of the recall case before the recall vote. li yanrong claimed that the themes of the videos were respectively about squandering money, defaulting on payments, and violating the spirit of the rule of law, hoping to remind the public of the importance of a successful recall.

huang shendong, spokesman for the kmt keelung city party committee, retorted that the recall group used many malicious accusations and slanderous personal attacks in the video, such as "despise, oppression, and lowliness", which made people wonder, is the so-called public opinion really like this? this should not be the so-called "democratic politics" in the mouths of the recall group.
