On May 20th in Yilan, DPP magistrate candidate Lin Kuo-chang criticized his KMT rival, Wu Tsung-hsien, for positioning Yilan as a subordinate to Taipei and ignoring local identity. The dispute centers on Wu's proposal to introduce the "silicon photonics packaging and testing" industry to the Yilan Science Park to complement Taipei's Shilin Science Park. Lin questioned the environmental risks and claimed it contradicts the park's current development. Wu's camp retorted that Lin is self-deprecating and obstructing Yilan's high-wage transformation, stressing that silicon photonics is a low-pollution, high-value industry and that the park's land lease rate is only 40%, needing new development.
