TAIPEI -- With Foxconn Chairman and CEO Terry Gou now a candidate in the Taiwanese presidential election next January, top aide and Chief Financial Officer Huang Chiu-lien is considered a front-runner to take the reins at the key Apple supplier.

The company is already narrowing down candidates on the shortlist following Gou's announcement in mid-April. "It is true that Huang is considered a strong candidate," said a source at the company, formally Hon Hai Precision Industry.
