TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — After lashing out at Taiwanese media at Sunday's (Dec. 29) presidential debate, Kuomintang (KMT) presidential candidate Han Kuo-yu (韓國瑜) used the F-bomb while accusing Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) members of corruption at a campaign rally in Taichung.

During the televised presidential debate, Apple Daily Deputy Editor-in-Chief Tsai Jih-yun (蔡日雲) questioned Han about a payment he made to a woman surnamed Wang (王), with whom he had allegedly had an affair with, and Han responded by bashing her for being "disrespectful" and "low-class."

The Kaohsiung mayor said the query fully reflected the news agency's lack of quality and proceeded to condemn Sanlih E-Television and CNA for lacking professionalism and a conscience, reported Now News.

Han's behavior at the debate was heavily criticized by political experts and a number of Taiwanese netizens, who called Han the "most ill-mannered" presidential candidate in Taiwan history.    [FULL  STORY]
