In Taiwan, recall campaigns targeting a total of 50 lawmakers are heating up against the backdrop of sharp partisan divisions in its legislature.
        
                    
                  
The opposition camp has a majority of seats in Taiwan&#039;s 113-member parliament, the Legislative Yuan, with the largest opposition Kuomintang holding 52 seats.
        
                    
                  
The minority government of the Democratic Progressive Party, led by President Lai Ching-te, is trailing with only 51 seats.
        
                    
                  
A civic group critical of the opposition held a massive rally in Taipei on Saturday. The group is aiming to unseat as many opposition lawmakers as possible so that the ruling DPP can secure a majority in the legislature.
        
                    
                  
During the rally, signatures were collected toward initiating referendums to decide whether to dismiss lawmakers.
        
                    
                  
Meanwhile, the opposition bloc is also staging a signature drive of its own to recall ruling party lawmakers.
        
                    
                  
The Central Election Commission says the number of lawmakers being targeted in these campaigns stands at 50, nearly a half of the legislators. Fifteen of them are from the DPP and 34 from the KMT, while one is a pro-KMT independent.
        
                    
                  
President Lai is calling on both camps to cooperate in dealing with China&#039;s espionage activities, and the tariff policies of the US administration of President Donald Trump. But there are no signs of the partisan confrontation being brought under control anytime soon.
