By Lin Liang-sheng, Chen Yun and Yang Chun-hui / Staff reportersThe three presidential candidates for the elections on Jan. 11 yesterday faced off in the only televised presidential debate, which was hosted by the Public Television Service. Han said that he would not forget his roots and pledged to spend three days of the week in Kaohsiung if elected president. He called the DPP the “biggest Taiwan-selling corporation,” accusing Tsai of deceiving supporters of Taiwanese independence, the Chinese Communist Party, Hong Kongers and Taiwanese. Many DPP legislators have socialized with Beijing officials in China, but criticized them upon their return to Taiwan, Han said. Han said that Tsai has pledged to protect Taiwan’s sovereignty and that she would not trade it for economic benefits from China.
