Abstract

On Saturday 12 January, Taiwan’s Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) under William Lai Ching-te (賴清德) was elected to an historic third term of executive power. While Lai received 40.05% of the vote out of the three candidates, the DPP lost its majority in the Legislative Yuan. With its newly-won eight seat caucus, the Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) will now likely wield a decisive role on policy between the almost evenly matched DPP and rival Kuomintang in the legislature.
