The joint anti-drug operation between Taiwan and the United States has achieved another success. Based on information from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, the Nanjing Station of the Bureau of Investigation finally intercepted the drug-trafficking yacht "Emperor's Poetry" off the coast of Kaohsiung after many months of surveillance. It seized 1,500 kilograms of Cambodian-made K-tamine with a market value of more than 4.5 billion yuan. This is the largest case in the Bureau's anti-drug history. Five people, including Captain Chen, were arrested and brought to justice. The prosecutor has charged them with drug crimes. Executive Director Zhuo Rongtainan commended the meritorious personnel.

The Vietnamese brothers surnamed Nguyen cooperated with overseas drug traffickers and used air filters to hide 3,767.25 grams of heroin in an attempt to smuggle into Taiwan, but were seized by customs officers. After trial, the Miaoli District Court found that the two were jointly guilty of transporting first-level drugs. They were sentenced to life imprisonment, deprived of public rights for life, and deported after serving their sentences or pardoned.

Zhang Wanying, a 34-year-old female real estate agent in California, was allegedly ordered by the Chinese government to spy on President Lai Qingde's son Lai Tingyu in Seattle. She was detained after being arrested. Investigation revealed that she and her friends were associated with the Prince Group, a fraud organization that used violence and coercion to commit fraud in Cambodia and was involved in money laundering and drug trafficking. Zhang Wanying once posted a photo on Xiaohongshu, showing her sitting in a Bukati Chiron supercar worth more than NT$100 million. She claimed that the owner of the car was Fei Wenzhi, a cryptocurrency trader. However, Fei Wenzhi claimed that the car was actually borrowed by his friend Chen Xing, who was an accomplice of the Prince Group2. Another man accompanying him, Miao Fatai, is the registered agent of a California real estate company. His company address is used by a Chinese money laundering organization and is involved in money laundering by drug lords. Zhang Wanying was also accused of failing to register a currency exchange business and depositing US$190,000 into a Chinese bank account.

A number of TCM insurance fraud cases in Taiwan in recent years have shown that TCM’s diagnostic method of “looking, smelling, asking, and feeling” relies on patients’ chief complaints and lacks objective evidence, making it a tool used by fraudsters. Insurance fraudsters have defrauded tens of millions of New Taiwan dollars over the years by falsely reporting injuries, repeated medical visits, flexible self-paid drug receipts and duplicate claims systems. Experts recommend strengthening injury descriptions and objective records, and fixing system loopholes to prevent insurance fraud.

Tutoring teacher Zhou Joseph and his wife, an insurance salesperson surnamed Chen, took out accident insurance from 14 insurance companies from 2010 to 2023. They took advantage of the diagnostic properties of traditional Chinese medicine to fraudulently collect insurance benefits. They were injured 500 times in 12 years and defrauded more than 28 million yuan, which was exchanged for 260 gold bars. They also hoarded high-priced Chinese medicinal materials and health products. Their underage daughter was involved in insurance fraud. After the case was exposed, the Chinese Medicine Practitioners Association warned the industry to guard against the risk of insurance fraud.
