[Reporter Hong Meixiu/Hsinchu Report] The civil strife in the Kuomintang group of the Hsinchu City Council has intensified and the frying pan has exploded!

The Hsinchu City Party Headquarters of the Kuomintang invited the elected party members to hold a symposium for the party group. During the meeting, a fake vote was held for the chairman and deputy speaker. Unexpectedly, many of the 14 party members who attended were dissatisfied. The party broke up and left the meeting without voting, and no one voted for the deputy speaker Yu Bangyan, officially declaring that the party meeting was broken.

In this regard, the KMT City Party Department stated that in the symposium of the Xinke Members’ Party Group, Xu Xiurui won 8 votes for the speaker’s nomination, and 6 others did not vote (including Chen Zhixiong, Chen Qingling, Zhong Shuying, Zhang Zuyan, Xiao Zhijie and Wu Xufeng ), Xu Xiurui won the approval of more than half of the 8 votes, but when Yu Bangyan, the nominee for the deputy speaker, wanted to conduct a fake vote, because there were many opinions and noises from the members of the party, he did not vote in the end. The party decided that the part of the deputy speaker would not be nominated. The results were reported to the Party Central Committee for decision.

It is understood that according to the regulations of the Kuomintang Central Committee, the Kuomintang groups of the county and city councils must report to the Party Central Committee the nomination of the chairman and deputy speaker before the 16th. The city party department thought that the procedure was inconsistent and failed to hold the meeting. I did not expect to receive a LINE notice from the city party department a few days ago that the party group meeting will be held today. It was not informed in advance of the matters to be discussed, only whether it was willing to run for the chairman and deputy speaker As a result, during the meeting today, the party headquarters proposed to hold a fake vote for the candidates for the chairman and deputy speaker, but there was only one candidate for each, the speaker part was Xu Xiurui, and the deputy speaker part was Yu Bangyan.

Chen Zhixiong believes that as a result of the election of city councilors, 12 people nominated by the party were elected. Yu Bangyan and Chen Qiyuan were elected as non-party members, but they still participated in the Kuomintang group forum. He believes that the procedures are inconsistent. Only Xu Xiurui and Yu Bangyan are the only ones. It is obvious that the nominees have been decided in advance. The nominees should be all 14 elected members who are eligible, but the list of candidates for the fake vote is only one.

Chen Zhixiong was dissatisfied and complained that before and after the election, he and the members of the party were labeled as the "Gang of Four" on the side of the green camp. One person can elect the deputy speaker, so is there any party discipline?

Chen Zhixiong emphasized that in this parliamentary election, every candidate nominated by the Kuomintang has been selected very hard. Almost everyone was elected at the bottom of the crane. If you can swallow it, how can you explain it to the party members?

Therefore, he left the caucus first without voting.

City councilor Chen Qingling said that today's party group meeting broke up unhappily, and party members had a lot of complaints about the party department. He emphasized that he has been a member of the KMT Central Committee for many years. According to his understanding, only 6 of the 14 members of the speaker Xu Xiurui voted, and no one voted for the deputy speaker Yu Bangyan. If the party headquarters wants to report this result to the party central committee, it will be ugly.
