Chen Fu-hai

Chen Fu-hai is the County Commissioner of Kinmen, having been elected in 2022 as an independent candidate, defeating the incumbent from the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT). His leadership comes at a time when Kinmen is navigating complex political dynamics between Taiwan and China, particularly regarding energy independence and infrastructure development. Chen's position is significant as he represents a shift in local governance, with many seats on the county council held by independents, reflecting the unique political landscape of Kinmen, which often votes based on local circumstances rather than broader national affiliations.
