DPP
The Democratic Progressive Party, Taiwan’s first opposition party, was founded in 1986 to challenge the one-party authoritarian rule of the Kuomintang. The DPP is committed to political change, supporting freedom of speech, press, assembly and association. In the 2000 presidential election, DPP candidate Chen Shui-bian’s victory ended more than half a century of Kuomintang rule in Taiwan.
