The K-M-T has formally approved New Taipei Mayor Hou Yu-ih as its 2024 presidential nominee at a the party's National Congress, which was held at the Banqiao Gymnasium.
Speaking following his nomination, Hou framed the election as a "pivotal" moment of decision between regression and progress, war and peace in the Taiwan Strait, and the improvement or deterioration of people's living conditions.
Hou warned that under the Tsai administration Taiwan has come to be known internationally as "the most dangerous place on earth," but under his leadership, the government will focus efforts on preventing war and pursuing peace.
Hou said that if elected president, his top priorities will be to strengthen Taiwan's democratic system and military preparedness, while also enhancing cross-strait exchanges and reducing the risk of conflict with Beijing.
K-M-T Chairman Eric Chu says the party is now hoping to not only unite the "blue" camp ahead of January's election, but also create a governing coalition among all of Taiwan's opposition parties.
