Su said on Saturday he would resign, a week after losing the ruling Democratic Progressive Party's primary for the 2008 Taiwan leader elections. Su, who becomes the fifth "premier" to quit during the seven-year tenure of Chen Shui-bian, assumed the post in 2006, replacing Frank Hsieh, who defeated him last weekend in the party's primary.
