The opposition DPP party has organized its annual National Congress, with the most critical agenda targeted to create momentum for the party's nominees for the year-end five municipality elections.

DPP is organizing a national congress, with the initial activity to create momentum for the party's candidates for the year-end five municipality elections.

Each of the five candidates is seen holding hands with a child, presenting a warm image.

They get to brief their campaign platforms in front of the party's national representatives, with the common goal to win the five cities at once.

Besides trying to gain the momentum for a landslide win, DPP's Taipei mayoral candidate Su Jen-chang stressed that the more important goal is to gain more supporters for the DPP. Although it's said the integration effort in the greater Tainan city is quite difficult, mayoral candidate Lai Ching-teh denied the rumor, adding that the party unity is what it takes to win all 5 mayoral positions.
