Taiwan: Legislator facing January 9 recall vote

Taiwan Independent Legislator Freddy Lim, the former lead vocalist for heavy-metal band Chtonic, is facing a recall vote on January 9, 2022 over what seems to be a debate of who was to blame for a Covid outbreak. Petitioners handed in 38,286 signatures and got 27,362 valids. They needed 24,475.

Lim was previously part of the New Power Party and an activist for independence. This may be part of the wave of recalls hitting Taiwan.
