Former Taiwan leader Tsai Ing-wen has recently taken on the role of campaign manager for the DPP's mayoral candidates in difficult election districts, including Taitung County candidate Chen Yang and New Taipei City candidate Su Chia-hui. The public is watching whether Tsai will also support DPP Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Bo-yang. DPP legislator Wang Shih-chien said on the 26th that if Tsai were to take on the role of campaign manager for Shen, it would be a common expectation for everyone.

Wang Shih-chien stated that Tsai has been out of politics for a long time, with a carefree attitude, and now hopes to live a life of a free and easy recluse. Her current home life is very low-key, but she still quietly pays attention to the development of Taiwan's politics. He believes that if Tsai has the energy to help Shen, she will definitely do so, but the timing of the announcement is up to Tsai.

Regarding Taichung Mayor Lu Hsiu-yen's criticism of the Presidential Office for 'abandoning' the purchase of factory-made mooncakes, Wang Shih-chien said that Lu's willingness to participate in caring for the disabled is good, but she should not use the term 'abandoning.' He explained that the Presidential Office was forced to cancel the purchase of mooncakes due to budget cuts and that it has been a long-standing practice for everyone to voluntarily purchase mooncakes, which is a good thing. However, Lu and the Taichung City Government's willingness to buy is good, but they should not use such words to attack each other. He hoped that Lu would retract the two words 'abandoning.'
