My Take
What draws me to Tsai Shih-ying is not the resume but the rootedness. A Taipei-born politician with a degree from National Taipei University, he seems to have planted himself firmly in Keelung, the harbor city that even shapes his social media handle. I have a soft spot for local-first politicians who grind away serving one community rather than chasing the national spotlight. Taiwan's legislature is famously combative, and surviving it demands both nimble wit and stubborn patience. I quietly respect the kind of public servant who lets a port town's salt air, not a flashy biography, define who he is.
