Political party in Taiwan
The
Taiwan Statebuilding Party
(
TSP
;
Chinese
:
台灣基進
;
pinyin
:
Taiw?n J?jin
;
Pe?h-?e-j?
:
Tai-oan Ki-chin
) is a political party in the
Republic of China
(Taiwan). The party was established in 2016 as
Taiwan Radical Wings
.
[4]
The party is considered a rather close ally of the
DPP
,
[12]
while fighting to replace opposition parties whom TSP unilaterally claims as “not loyal to Taiwan”,
[13]
such as
Kuomintang
and
TPP
. In Taiwan’s
2024 Legislative Election
, TSP failed to gain any seat in the Legislative Yuan and lost its status as a national political party.
History
[
edit
]
As of 2018, the chairperson was
Chen Yi-chi
.
[14]
In the 2020 legislative elections in Taiwan, the party won one seat, with
Chen Po-wei
becoming its first member of the
Legislative Yuan
.
[15]
In October 2021, Chen became the first member of the Legislative Yuan to be successfully recalled, ending his term less than two years into office.
[16]
Votes for Chen's recall numbered 77,899, against 73,433 opposing his recall. Votes supporting the recall topped 25% of the eligible electorate (73,744), with 51.72 percent voter turnout.
[17]
Per Article 92 of the
Civil Servants Election and Recall Act
[
zh
]
, Chen will be ineligible to run for the Legislative Yuan in Taichung's second district for the next four years.
[18]
On 28 October 2021, he was officially dismissed from the Legislative Yuan.

But the implementation of 18 national languages in official settings has not gone smoothly. In late September, a conversation between Defense Minister Chiu Kuo-cheng and the
progressive Taiwan Statebuilding Party'
s only elected lawmaker, Chen Po-wei, became heated after Chen requested the use of an interpreter so he could speak in Taigi, his mother tongue.
