(CGTN)    14:00, January 11, 2020

Taiwan residents began voting in the island's leadership and legislative elections at 8:00 a.m. local time on Saturday, and the polls will close at 4:00 p.m.

Taiwan's current leader Tsai Ing-wen from the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) is competing with the candidate of the Chinese Kuomintang (KMT) party's Han Kuo-yu and the People First Party (PFP)'s candidate Soong Chu-yu.

The Chinese mainland will continue to promote peaceful development of cross-Strait relations, and it concerns about Taiwan compatriots' interests and welfare, said Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, at a press conference last year on December 25.
