Tsai and Liu work at the Yonglin Foundation, which was created by Gou to carry out educational initiatives nationwide. Hsuan, whom PFP Chairman James Soong (宋楚瑜) called the “godfather of Taiwan’s high-tech industry,” is one of Gou’s close friends. Asked why he agreed to be nominated, Hsuan said that Gou’s participation in the KMT presidential primary played a major role in his decision. “We both feel that politics is the greatest public good, and that it should be promoted through good policies. She would speak up for start-ups and focus on education, Liu said, adding that these issues are not necessarily on Gou’s agenda.
