Political career

Hsieh served in the Legislative Yuan from 1973 to 1990 as a representative of laborers,[1] then remained in the legislature until 1994, representing Hualien County.[2][3] Hsieh left the legislature when he was chosen to head the Council of Labor Affairs. He stepped down from that position to run for Taipei County Magistrate in 1997. Hsieh lost to Su Tseng-chang and was named the secretary-general of the Executive Yuan the next year, before stepping down in 2000 upon the election of Chen Shui-bian.[1] He came out of retirement in 2003 to run for the office of Hualian County magistrate after Chang Fu-hsing had died in office. The Kuomintang nominated Hsieh over many other KMT-affiliated candidates, including Chang's widow Liu Chao-a, and former magistrate Wu Kuo-tung.[4][5] Listed second on the ballot, Hsieh finished first in the by-election with 73,710 votes.[6][7] He was reelected in 2005 and stepped down at the end of his term in 2009.

gollark: I hope we can all agree that anarchoprimitivism is very stupid, at least.

gollark: I have temperature readings up, and it says 85 degrees, which is pretty safe.
