Premier Zhuo Rong Tai has instructed all central government agencies not to
provide TPP at-large legislator Li Zhen-xiu with any information until her
eligibility to serve as a lawmaker is confirmed.

The Premier has also directed the Central Election Commission, the Mailand
Affairs Council and the Interior Ministry to deal with Li's case carefully.

Li, who was born in China, has submitted a certificate of renunciation of her
Chinese citizenship to prove that her Chinese household was cancelled in
1993.

However, the M-A-C raised concerns about the certificate, saying it would
only accept the date that the certificate was returned to authorities in
2025.

The MAC said that means Li had dual household registration when she signed up
to run as a TPP at-large legislator in 2023.

Meanwhile former TPP Chair Ke Wen Zhe said that if Zhuo openly admits that
so-called "Mainland wives" do not have political rights under the DPP, the
TPP would relieve her of her post.
