Former president Chen Shui-bian (陳水扁) is not supporting any particular candidate in the next presidential election in 2012, Chen’s office said yesterday.
The office said in a statement that some media organizations had apparently misinterpreted comments by the director of the Democratic Progressive Party’s (DPP) Taipei branch, Huang Ching-lin (黃慶林), who told reporters about a conversation with Chen at the Taipei Detention Center on Wednesday.
