| Description | People First Party (PFP) Chairman James Soong yesterday formally announced his running mate, the epidemiology specialist Lin Ruei-shiung, before the two registered to become candidates via a public endorsement campaign at the Central Election Commission (CEC).
The 72-year-old Lin is a professor emeritus in National Taiwan University's College of Public Health. Lacking political experience, Soong's choice of running mate came as a surprise to many.
Making public appearance for the first time yesterday morning to end public speculation, Lin said this is his debut in political event. |
