#Taiwan2024PresidentialElection
ETtoday poll for Taiwan's presidential election dated 30 Nov shows the same trend. In this poll the DPP and KMT are very close with the TPP a distant third.

The latest My Formosa poll for Taiwan's presidential election was taken from 28-30 Nov. The main takeaway is the loss of support for the TPP candidate Ko Wen-je. This means the election is likely to become a more direct contest between the DPP and KMT.

Seiji Maehara's departure from the Democratic Party for the People to form a new political party is seen by many across the political aisle as a move to join Nippon Ishin no Kai in the future. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/12/01/japan/politics/seiji-maehara-new-political-party/?utm_content=buffera4db9&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #japan #politics #seijimaehara #dpp #nipponishin

Freddy Lim (林昶佐) announced that he will join the DPP. He was originally elected to the legislature in 2016 as a member of the New Power Party (NPP). He left the NPP in 2019 and was re-elected in 2020 as an independent. He supported Tsai Ing-wen in the 2020 election. (1/2)

"Meltdown" Niebieskich na Tajwanie
KMT i TPP prowadzą kampanię na rzecz zacieśnienia więzi z Chinami i przedstawiają wybory jako wybór między "pokojem a wojną." Atakują rządzącą DPP za rzekome dążenie do niepodległości za wszelką cenę. Oskarżają ją o odrzucenie oferty rozmów z ChRL. Te wybory mogą być jednak ostatnimi, w których taka narracja może mieć jeszcze jakiś sens.

Meanwhile #TerryGou has quit his vanity project of becoming #Taiwan's next president after #FoxConn aka #HonHai got away with less than USD 3000.- in fines in #China for not reporting all tax details correctly. Very hard to imagine that these two things were unrelated...
Still, #WilliamLai and the #DPP are leading the field of candidates, and Lai's pick for his running mate #HsiaoBikhim is a very clever choice - no matter what the #KMT is nagging on about. #elections 2/2




Two of the three vice presidential candidates in Taiwan's presidential election are women. It is notable that both these women are very cosmopolitan. Hsiao Bi-Khim (蕭美琴) was born in Japan and grew up in Taiwan and the US. Cynthia Wu (吳欣盈) was born in the US and has also spent time living in the UK.

The #KMT and #KoWenje NOT being able to agree on who will lead a joint ticket for #Taiwan's presidential #elections next January comes as NO surprise at all (to me).
For 40 years the KMT has been the ruling party during the #martiallaw era, so it won't step back. Ko has always called the shots since entering #politics, so he's not going to be content being the running mate and not the main candidate of the #opposition.
Good news for #WilliamLai and the #DPP. #democracy https://focustaiwan.tw/politics/202311180005

Teoretycznie to może wywrócić wszystkie przewidywania dotyczące wyborów prezydenckich w styczniu. W parlamencie Demokratyczna Partia Postępu (DPP) raczej nie ma szans na utrzymanie większości, ale dotychczasowe sondaże dawały wygodną przewagę jej kandydatowi na prezydenta - Williamowi Lai Ching-te.

The 3 November My Formosa poll shows the DPP's Lai retains a consistent lead in Taiwan's presidential race. The notable trend is that support for the KMT's Hou is rising while the TPP's Ko is falling. Independent Gou lags a distant fourth.

KMT i TPP zawierają sojusz wyborczy?
Przedstawiciele KMT i TPP oświadczyli po poniedziałkowym spotkaniu liderów, że będą "wspierać się nawzajem i maksymalizować liczbę miejsc" w parlamencie, aby "pogłębić demokrację." To wszystko ładnie brzmi, ale są moim zdaniem są dwa poważne problemy na drodze "wspólnego frontu."

The DPP candidate is Hsu Shu-hua (許淑華) who has served as a city councillor for the district since 2006. She is obviously well known to voters as she doesn't include her name on her poster
The KMT candidate is Hsu Chiao-hsin (徐巧芯) who has been a city councillor since 2018

#Canon today released new #firmware for their #mirrorless range of interchangeable lens camera bodies (#MILC) incorporating In-Body Image Stabilization (#IBIS), with some very useful new #features:
● Sharpest shot (burst mode): This feature will select the sharpest image from a burst when IBIS is enabled. All photos from a single burst will also be placed in a separate folder on your card and the image #EXIF data will carry additional IBIS data for later review and filtering.
● Sharpest moment (single shot mode): This will buffer images while you're holding your shutter fully depressed in a single shot electronic shutter mode and then only write onto the card the sharpest moment, when IBIS detected the least camera shake and was able to correct for all the movement while the sensor was read from.
● High resolution sensor shift photos: All Canon camera bodies that are capable of producing higher than sensor's native resolution photos using sensor-shift method will now gain this feature even if they previously didn't come with it.
● Panorama mode (sweeping or stacking): All Canon bodies that were missing this shooting mode gain this ability with the new firmware update. It comes with automatic metering, calculated over the entire panorama shot, or let the user select metered position that doesn't have to be at the starting position of the panorama shot.
● Ultra-wide video mode: On top of standard 4K resolutions, Canon is now including an option to select user-defined and narrower than 16:9 aspect ratio. As data will be read from the sensor faster with shorter vertical reads, this will also improve rolling shutter and high shutter speed performance in videos. OIS and IBIS will also be able to correct for more vertical movement without vignetting.
Additionally, Canon has updated its Digital Photo Professional (#DPP) software to support hardware acceleration and utilize multi-threading, making #RAW photo editing more than 10x faster than previously, and have finally published an #Android version of DPP Express.
You can #download these updates today only from https://haveigotcanonupdatesforyou.com/aprilfools/
