Their system and political culture is too entrenched. They need a big team of people like Shen Fu Xiong, Sissy Chen or Qiu Yi to overhaul the system. President Ma latest partner is 吴敦义. Any comments about this guy? I heard him talk and he is sharp and always very good at handling difficult questions from reporters. An Old ginger and a veteran in Taiwan politics. He has his way of figthing and surviving in complicated Taiwanese politics for so many years.

Wu is the current Premier of Taiwan.
A cunning and wily veteran politician. Not well versed in economics and world affairs in my opinion, but good at explaining things and talking his way out of trouble. The former Premier who had to step down after the typhoon disaster, was the exact opposite.
Long time enemy of DPP's Frank Hsieh, who defeated him before in mayor elections.
Can't stand both Wu and Frank.
