President Ma Ying-jeou paid an inspection visit to Taipei County on Saturday before the outgoing magistrate Chou Hsi-wei leaves office. During the visit, Ma praised Chou for his outstaning performance during his term, and wished him all the best in the future.

Taipei County is to be upgraded to the Xinbei city.

Taipei County magistrate Chou Hsi-wei delivered his political promises before his term ends.

The renovation work of Zhong-Kang Drainage channel has been done and a completion ceremony is held in Xinchuang.

President Ma Ying-jeou personally came to the site to praise Chou's achievement while encouraging Chou to pursue a greater career.

Could this mean that President Ma talked about the future plan for the outgoing magistrate?

Chou said that the president didn't mention anything about a job offer.

But it is also said that not many incumbent officials in Chou's cabinet are kept in the new administration.

For that, Chou said that he would respect Eric Chu's decision.

President Ma Ying-jeou spends the whole Saturday paying inspection to the Taipei County government's construction projects, a flattering gesture to the outgoing magistrate.

Chou gave up the chance to run for the first Xinbei city mayoral election because his poll result was behind Eric Chu.

He said that as a politician, he can't do anything except look at what happened with a humble and modest attitude.
