Premier-designate Su Tseng-chang (蘇貞昌) yesterday unveiled his choices for transportation, finance, economics and interior ministers as well as Government Information Office chief.
Speaking to reporters outside his apartment in Taipei, Su confirmed he has invited former Mainland Affairs Council chairwoman Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) to be vice premier based on her credentials in cross-strait and economic affairs.
Su said Tsai, now a DPP legislator-at-large, has accepted his invitation.

She's one of the people behind Lee Teng-hui's state-to-state formula, a policy wonk type.

She's a career businesswoman, probably best known for her many years of relationship with her bodyguard.
Damn! Brain glitch! That's what I get for staying up all night watching season one of LOST.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the catch!
