Julia Hsieh (Chinese: 謝子涵; born 29 October 1991) is a Taiwanese politician who served as the acting Spokesperson of the Executive Yuan since 2024.

Political career

[edit]

Hsieh began her political career in 2022 as the spokesperson for the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP).[1]

In 2023, she was nominated to run for legislator in Taichung City's third constituency, but she was defeated by the incumbent legislator, Yang Chiung-ying of the Kuomintang.[2]

On 20 May 2024, following the DPP's victory in the presidential election, she was appointed to the Cho cabinet as the Executive Yuan's deputy spokesperson.[3] In August of the same year, after the resignation of Chen Shih-kai, who had been the spokesperson and was appointed Minister of Transportation and Communications, Hsieh assumed the role of acting spokesperson.[4][5]
