Li Si-chuan campaigns in Shulin, pledges to finish the New Taipei Dome and ease traffic

Aug 16, 2026

Kuomintang New Taipei mayoral candidate Li Si-chuan is courting voters in Shulin with promises on stadiums and transit, a positive pitch for locals frustrated by traffic and development gaps.

  • Li worked the Bo'ai market in Shulin, shaking hands and drawing "get elected" cheers, with vendors gifting him vegetables and asking for autographs.
  • He vowed to finish the long-planned New Taipei Dome in Shulin, continuing current mayor Hou Yu-ih's blueprint.
  • He backed a new metro line branching off the Minsheng–Xizhi line to link the Sanchong second administrative center all the way to the Shulin Dome.
  • He also pushed to raise the Shulin train station and bury the rail line underground to clear a local transport bottleneck.

Outlook: These are campaign pledges tied to the New Taipei mayoral race, so delivery depends on Li winning and the projects clearing engineering and funding hurdles.
