Former President Ma Ying-jeou and Kuomintang chair Wu Den-yih will be attending the national day celebrations on Thursday. Both Ma and Wu have been present at the celebrations each year since President Tsai Ing-wen of the Democratic Progressive Party took office in 2016.
Meanwhile, People First Party Secretary-General Lee Hung-chun said Wednesday that party chair James Soong will be attending the event as well. Lee said that Soong will attend both as a citizen and in his capacity as chair of the People First Party.
