Kuomintang (KMT) chairperson Cheng Li-Wun wants to meet China’s president Xi Jinping. She revealed in an interview with @TheEconomist on January 27th that after a nine-year hiatus, the KMT will resume dialogue with China’s Communist Party in early February, starting with exchanges between their think-tanks.

A Chinese mainland spokeswoman confirmed the reports. Zhang Han, spokeswoman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said a think tank forum between the Communist Party of China and the Kuomintang from Taiwan will be held in Beijing on Tuesday (February 3rd).

A former Taiwan lawmaker who has advocated closer ties to China won the contest to become the leader of the island’s biggest opposition party. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/20/asia-pacific/politics/taiwan-kuomintang-leader-china/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #politics #kuomintang #china #taiwan #dpp #laichingte #chengliwun

Voters in Taiwan have once again rejected an effort by President Lai Ching-te’s party to flip parliament, a setback that could deepen political deadlock and complicate the island’s push to ramp up defense spending. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/08/24/asia-pacific/politics/taiwan-reject-recalls-defense-budget/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #politics #taiwan #dpp #kuomintang #laichingte #defense #budgets #china #pla

Taiwan’s opposition will keep its legislative majority in a blow to President Lai Ching-te’s Democratic Progressive Party, with voters overwhelmingly rejecting an attempt to recall 24 Kuomintang (KMT) lawmakers. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/07/27/asia-pacific/politics/taiwan-recall-election-kuomintang/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #politics #taiwan #dpp #kuomintang #china #laichingte

Taiwanese voters turned out at schools, temples and community centers on Saturday to cast their ballots in a high-stakes recall election that could give President Lai Ching-te's party control of the parliament. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/07/26/asia-pacific/politics/taiwan-recall-vote/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #politics #taiwan #dpp #kuomintang #china

Recently-inaugurated Taiwanese President William Lai was included in this group.

Peng certainly would have qualified as a so-called “diehard” activist – he would probably have even been proud to wear the title.

In 1949, the party that had once ruled all of #China, the #Kuomintang, lost the Chinese Civil War to the Chinese #Communist Party and fled to #Taiwan, where they ruled as a one-party state under martial law.
