Since the relocation of the KMT regime to Taiwan in 1949, the existing 1,300 KMT officials who fled China continued to hold office in Taiwan. Only 180 new seats were created. Taiwan’s ‘Non Re-elected Congress’ was an international political anomaly. The will of the people converged into a powerful force that began rapidly driving the country towards total congressional re-election.
