for the people of Taipei County (and Tainan and Kaohsiung)

On Friday, Chou [Hsi-wei 周錫瑋] reiterated his determination to seek a status upgrade of the county and said he would quit politics if Taipei County failed to be upgraded to a special municipality before the merger of Taichung City and Taichung County, which is expected to take place around the end of the year.

so that's how to fall on one's sword

and on the same topic:

"We are happy to see upgraded status for a merged Taichung City and Taichung County, but we hope the KMT will support mergers for Tainan City and Tainan County, and Kaohsiung City and Kaohisung County and elevate both of them to special municipalities as well,” DPP Legislator William Lai (賴清德) said.

yeah, like that'll happen
