Has Zhu Lilun been excluded from the KMT's 2024 candidates (see picture)?

Huang Jianting said that Zhu Lilun has said many times that he does not have his own considerations, and that he may not even be included in the poll candidates, but will only be responsible for selecting the strongest candidate. The meaning is very clear.

[Reporter Shi Xiaoguang/Taipei Report] The KMT Central Committee will discuss the issue of the 2024 nomination today. There are rumors that the Central Standing Committee suggested at the meeting that candidates should also be included in the party chairman Zhu Lilun. The KMT Secretary-General Huang Jianting said that Zhu Lilun has said many times that he has no own Considering that, even the poll candidates may not be included in themselves, and they will only be responsible for launching the strongest candidates.

Regarding this newspaper's questioning, does the implication mean that the KMT has excluded Zhu Lilun as a candidate for 2024?

Huang Jianting first said that Zhu Lilun has publicly said many times that he is "selfless" and "has no personal considerations". This newspaper then asked, does this mean that Zhu Lilun has been definitely ruled out?

Huang Jianting went on to say that he was paraphrasing Zhu Lilun's statement, and Zhu has said many times in public that he is to launch the strongest hen. In the past, people even asked Zhu whether the strongest hen included him, and Zhu said that he was not included.

If Hou Youyi, the mayor of New Taipei City, who is regarded as the most powerful hen of the Kuomintang, does not come out to run for the election, will Zhu Lilun not participate?

Huang Jianting said, "So you are making a lot of hypotheses, right?" "He said this, and I think it is very clear to me!"

Huang Jianting pointed out that some members of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China are concerned that the presidential nomination schedule should not be delayed too late, and expressed their hope that the primary election should not be held directly. By July and August, winning the election is the only goal. Under this goal, we must first build a consensus within the party, including himself and all party cadres. The chairman waits for the progress in the party, and then decides to adopt the method of primary election or recruitment.

Huang Jianting emphasized that Zhu Lilun means that the nomination method will not be decided by Zhu Lilun personally, but will be decided after extensively listening to everyone's opinions. If everyone has a consensus on the recruitment, the former Hon Hai chairman Guo Taiming will of course be considered. One of the candidates.

As for seeking opinions in the future, will you talk to Guo Taiming?

Huang Jianting said that it should not be possible at this stage. At present, it is only seeking consensus within the party.
