Council to contest Li’s eligibility as legislatorDUAL NATIONALITY? Mainland Affairs Council Minister Chiu Chui-cheng speaks in an interview with the Chinese-language Liberty Times (sister paper of the Taipei Times) on Wednesday. The National Immigration Agency does not have records of Li renouncing her Chinese household registration before March last year, he added. Controversy surrounding Li’s qualifications have triggered doubts in other people about their own nationality status, the council said. Chiu said the council is monitoring the Chinese National People’s Congress and Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, which opened this week.
