Why It Matters
Huang Yuting, the Kuomintang city council candidate in the eighth district of Gao City, and Huang Shaoting, the former city councilor who was dismissed due to the case, are from the same party and the same district, and their names differ only by one word.
Kaohsiung City Council candidate's Wikipedia was tampered with, and Blue Camp candidate Huang Yuting angrily accused those behind it.
Huang Yuting, the Kuomintang-nominated city council candidate for Kaohsiung District 8 (formerly Jin, Lingya, and Xinxing), discovered that the content on the Internet "Wikipedia" was suspected to have been tampered with, and was mistakenly planted as "Huang Shaoting", a former city councilor of the same party who was sentenced and dismissed for fraudulently claiming assistant fees. Worried that it might affect the election, he went to the Kaohsiung District Prosecutor's Office this afternoon (2) to ring the bell and report, hoping to find out the mastermind.
Huang Yuting, a candidate who wants to advance to the next level as mayor, happens to have the same party membership and constituency as Huang Shaoting, the former city councilor who was dismissed due to the case. Their names are only one word different. However, Huang Shaoting was sentenced because Huang Shaoting was involved in fraudulently collecting assistant fees. Huang Yuting suspected that someone was deliberately operating to confuse the identities of the two people, giving the innocent a negative image, and deliberately affecting his election. Today, he went to the Kaohsiung District Prosecutor's Office to file a complaint and defend his reputation.
Huang Yuting emphasized that "one word is a big difference"! The title of the content on the Wikipedia page that was suspected of being tampered with is "Huang Yuting", but at the beginning of the text, "Huang Shaoting" - a KMT politician, and negative words such as "Huang Shaoting" being involved in fraudulently claiming assistant fees, being subject to prosecutorial investigations, etc. appear to be deliberately and maliciously confusing two different politicians, causing voters to make mistakes, thereby affecting his election.
The police said they had not yet received a report, and Wikipedia also quickly updated today, stating that the page of "Huang Yuting" had been maliciously altered, and the text was mistakenly posted as "Huang Shaoting", a member of the same party involved in the assistant fee fraud case. Huang Yuting went to the Kaohsiung District Court to ring the bell to file a complaint, accusing the operator behind the scenes of violating the "Election and Removal of Public Employees Act" and damaging reputation, and asked the judicial authorities to conduct an in-depth investigation into the source of the release of false information.
