New Taipei candidate Lee Shih-tsung seeks votes from Changhua natives

New Taipei City mayoral candidate Lee Shih-tsung actively courted the vote of Changhua natives living in the city at the "New Taipei City Changhua Association Chairman Re-election and Cadre Certification Ceremony." Lee, a candidate for the Kuomintang party, presented his vision for a connected and technologically advanced metropolitan area.

New Taipei is the second hometown for all of you. If I become mayor, I will definitely become the association's biggest backer.

Lee promised to foster "joint governance, joint prosperity, and joint well-being" between Taipei and New Taipei if elected. A key infrastructure project he highlighted is the construction of the Lu-She Bridge, connecting Luzhou and Shezi Island. This bridge, he explained, would link to the burgeoning AI technology corridor, drawing inspiration from Nvidia's investment in Taipei's science park. The development would extend to areas like Wugu, Luzhou, and Tamsui, potentially creating high-tech zones and improving access to major expressways and southern districts of New Taipei.

If elected mayor of New Taipei City, I will definitely implement joint governance, joint prosperity, and joint well-being between the two cities.

"New Taipei is the second hometown for all of you," Lee told the attendees, many of whom, like himself, had moved north from southern Taiwan to build their lives. He expressed gratitude for the association's past support and pledged to be their "biggest backer" if he becomes mayor. He also urged the attendees to support Kuomintang city council candidates, promising to "go all out" to improve the lives of citizens.

If the Lu-She Bridge is built, it can connect to Wugu, Luzhou, and head towards Tamsui New Town phases 2 and 3, which can be developed into high-tech parks.
