Tsai said she work to recruit talented people to her cabinet, increase the competitiveness of Taiwan’s export-oriented economy and safeguard the food supply following a series of scandals.

Tsai, of the Democratic Progressive Party, or the DPP, had approval ratings of 56 percent in the polls.
Alexander Huang, strategic studies professor at Tamkang University in Taiwan, says China will monitor the president-elect until she takes office in May. She said both sides have a responsibility to find a mutually acceptable means of interacting, while adding that Taiwan’s global space must be respected.
Huge crowds chanted and waved flags in climactic rallies for the two main candidates, Tsai Ing-wen of the Beijing-wary main opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) – who is the frontrunner for the leadership – and the KMT’s Eric Chu. Three seats went to the PFP, one to the Nonpartisan Solidarity Union and one to an independent candidate. Some commenters suggested Chou was coerced into apologizing by JYPE and said the video was an embarrassment to Taiwan. She also warned that any form of suppression would harm the stability of cross-strait relations.

Chinese government-controlled media warned DPP leader Tsai Ing-wen not to start another round of instability with Beijing, which claims self-ruled Taiwan as part of its territory. Describing Singapore as “a longstanding friend” of Taiwan, MFA in its statement said that it “looks forward to maintaining our close relations and cooperation with Taiwan based on our consistent “One China” policy”.
Taiwan elected its first female president on Saturday, a member of a pro-independence party, in a persuasive victory over her nationalist rival that caused China to issue a stern warning of caution.
“Regardless of how you voted, the exercise of democratic expression was the most important meaning of this election”, Ms Tsai said in a news conference.
Tsai has toned down the DPP’s traditionally pro-independence message to assuage Beijing and calm nerves in the United States – Taiwan’s major ally – which does not want to see tensions flare. Furthermore, many people believe that the rising power of females is undeniable and can not be underestimated; many supporters regard Tsai as the most suitable person for negotiating with China.

The passage of a supervisory bill on cross-Strait exchanges, initiated in 2014 after large protests over a stalled trade pact with China, would be a legislative priority when the new parliamentary session begins in February, Tsai was quoted as saying in an interview with a Taiwanese magazine on Monday.
