Hsiung Ping-chi and the Cabinet officers have written to Parliament requesting it to carry out the Presidential election and guaranteeing Parliament's continued existence aitter the election. Apparently MiP.'s fear that once the election is compelled the authorities might have no further use for their services.—Reuter.
