TAIPEI (Reuters) – Taiwan’s two main opposition parties on Friday named their vice presidential candidates after talks about running a joint ticket to take on the ruling party failed.
The largest opposition party the Kuomintang chose media personality Jaw Shaw-kong, while the much smaller Taiwan People’s Party selected one of its lawmakers, Cynthia Wu.
