Su Tseng-chang makes first public appearance after withdrawing from DPP chairman race (2014/04/16)

Su Tseng-chang made his first public appearance today after announcing that he will not seek another term as DPP chairman. He said he will stump for candidates in the year-end elections but will not run. As for the presidential election in 2016, Su simply said he is taking matters one step at a time.

After two days of silence, Su Tseng-chang expressed how he felt after withdrawing from the upcoming DPP chairman race.

Su Tseng-chang
DPP Chairman
This is for the good of the party. From my first day as chairman, I have hoped to see this party win the 2014 elections. One less competition means one less round of attacks and one less round of damage to the party.

Calls have emerged for Su to run in a local election. Some want him to make another run at the New Taipei City mayorship, while others hope he can lead the DPP into power in Taoyuan.

Su Tseng-chang
DPP Chairman
For the end of this year, I will stump for candidates but I won’t run. I have always said that I will take matters one step at a time. 2016 can only happen if 2014 (is a success). People should think about 2014, not 2016.

Su still has more than a month as DPP chairman. He plans to continue reforming the party and gave a three-step process for reform at today’s Central Standing Committee meeting.

The student movement was a shock to the constitutional government, government and political party systems. A variety of responses are needed.

One of the DPP’s founders, Frank Hsieh, said today that he looks forward to the changes ahead.

貞昌首露面

民進黨主席蘇貞昌禮拜一以一紙聲明稿，宣佈退出黨主席選舉，今天他退選後首度公開露面，表示自己是為黨好，希望黨能打贏2014，只要少一分廝殺就能少一次傷害，更能贏得勝選。而未來，蘇貞昌明白表示，2014只會輔選不會參選。至於2016，路要一步一步走。

沉寂兩天，蘇貞昌收拾好心情，把自己退出黨魁之爭的心境，公開說明。

“這是為黨好，我希望這個黨能夠打贏2014，這是我從當黨主席的第一天開始的衷心期待，少一個競爭，少一次廝殺，少一份傷害”

但地方勸進聲音不斷，有人要他再戰新北、有人要他帶領民進黨拿下桃園。

“但是這個年底我是輔選而不參選，我一直說路要一步一步走，有2014才有2016，大家應該只想2014，不要去想2016”

談下一步，還有無限可能，黨主席任內最後一個多月，蘇貞昌還要推動黨務改革，中常會上，也提出黨改三階段推動計畫。

“學運後整個憲政體制政府體制，政黨都受到衝擊，更是要有各種因應”

身為民進黨創黨黨員，前行政院長謝長廷表示，對民進黨的改造，會非常期待。
