22 Taiwan Development Perspectives 2009 the world. One greatest accomplishment the 2008 change of government has achieved is to start a rapprochement between Taiwan and China. Efforts are being made to usher in an entente. Both President Ma and his Chinese counterpart Hu Jintao have gone on the record by saying they hope a peace accord will be signed between Taiwan and China. That is very much needed to formally end the Chinese civil war that was renewed after the end of World War II. Moreover, the agreement will normalize relations between the two sides of the Strait and lead to an entente cordiale, a prerequisite for the prosperity of the Chinese nation.
An Analysis of 2008 Legislative and Presidential Elections in Taiwan 23 An Analysis of 2008 Legislative and Presidential Elections in Taiwan CHOU, Yujen, KU, Chih-chuan Abstract In Taiwan, two national elections were held in 2008. Legislative elections took place on January 12 and voters went to the polls on March 22 to elect their president. In the 2005 constitutional amendment, the Legislative Yuan had its seats halved to 113 from 225. Moreover, a single constituency/two votes system was introduced for the election of lawmakers. Voters were required to cast two ballots, one for a candidate and the other for a political party, to elect 73 regional legislators from single constituency, 6 from indigenous people and 34 others according to proportional representation. The Kuomintang won more than 71 percent of the seats, and controls a virtual three-fourths majority in the new legislature. The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) won only 27 seats in the Legislative Yuan. In other words, two party politics is in place in Taiwan after this election. Furthermore, Ma Ying-jeou, Kuomintang standard bearer, won the presidential election which allows the KMT to control the Executive Yuan and the Legislative Yuan simultaneously and therefore terminate the minority government. Under the new legislative system, the DPP’s ratio of seats in the Legislative Yuan is much less than the ration of total votes it won, and the space of small parties were also faced serious restrictions which shows that the new system has great impact upon the direction of Taiwan’s party system. Besides, this paper analyzes the effects of the new legislative and presidential elections on the system of government in Taiwan. Moreover, we will deal with the effects of the time lag between these two elections on Taiwan’s political system.
