In a campaign tackling wasted government funds on Saturday last week, Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je (柯文哲) — who is also the Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) chairman — and his team were invited to take part in a shooting game using gel blasters. Ko was filmed taking shelter behind his shield throughout the game — only once poking his head out for a quick look — while his teammates fired freely at the “enemies.”
When interviewed about his “moves” in the game, Ko said that when one enters an unfamiliar environment, the first thing to do is to observe and hold out until the enemy runs out of ammunition.
