台北市長蔣萬安大兒子蔣得立獲公費出國交換的爭議持續延燒,旅美教授陳時奮(筆名:翁達瑞)批評蔣家「知法犯法」,涉嫌利用漏洞將自己的兒子納入珍貴的25人決選名單,目的是為了爭奪極少數的交換生榮譽與履歷,排擠其他合規學生的機會。陳時奮還驚曝,蔣得立很可能其實已經被國務院剔除資格,且過去這類交換計畫,外國生只會被分派到鄉村地區,蔣得立現在人卻在紐約,傳將進入當地高中就讀,不符交換計畫內容,如果相關傳聞屬實,之後他就要來看看蔣市府要如何圓謊!

陳時奮7日在臉書發文,「蔣萬安的兒子蔣得立獲選台北市的美國交換生,爆出特權掩護的爭議。台北市政府宣稱一切合法,蔣家卻又放棄市府的補助,爭議不止。針對外國中學生赴美交流,美國的國會在1993年通過專法,條文是《22 CFR § 62.25》。專法只適用外國的中學生,不能有美國籍,年齡從15到18歲,必須是中學在學生,還要滿足學業、英文、與適應的考核。」

「專法的主管單位是國務院,入選的外國中學生可取得訪問學者的簽證(J-1)就讀美國的高中,為期一學期到一學年,而且只能住在指派的接待家庭。國務院將這項業務的執行外包給私人機構,負責入選交換生的學校指派、接待家庭的選擇,與其他協助事項。若指派的學校是公立高中,不得收取學費。接待家庭也是志願性質,不得收取住宿費。」

「在台北市這一方,交換學生的選拔分成兩個階段。第一階段由學校『初選』有潛力的學生,再呈報給台北市教育局作第二階段的『決選』。決選名單確定後,台北市政府再將交換業務外包給民間機構,負責與美國的對口單位協調,執行學生的簽證與出國事宜。」

再說台美交換計畫的漏洞,「這個交換計畫涉及美台的政府單位,但美國的法源管不到台北市政府。國務院的交換計畫只適用非美籍的外國學生,但台北市政府的甄選辦法卻沒有排除擁有美國籍的應徵者。這個交換計畫的執行也涉及美台的民間機構,都是政府的外包商。照理說,台北的執行機構不應將擁有美國籍的入選學生提交給美國的對口單位。問題是,美國的法律也管不到台灣的民間機構。」

「美方的對口機構收到台北市政府的決選名單之後,第一個動作就是要求國務院出具J-1簽證的文件。此時擁有美國籍的入選學生就會被剔除,因為不符法源。被美方從國務院的交換計畫剔除後,擁有美國籍的入選學生可自行安排就學與住宿,或參加付費的交換計畫。這兩個方案都無簽證的問題,因爲這類學生本職就有美國護照。剔除擁有美國籍的入選學生之後,美方的對口機構會要求台北市政府遞補人選,前提是時間充足。若國務院無法如期出具簽證文件,那就不會再遞補。」

「蔣得立不適用這個交換計畫的法源,但仍可以進入決選名單,原因是台北市政府不遵守美國的法律。台北市政府刻意裝傻,未在甄選公告排除擁有美國籍的申請者。向台北市政府承攬交換計畫的民間機構,也是刻意睜一隻眼、閉一隻眼,明知蔣得立不符交換生的甄選資格,仍將決選名單提交給美方的對口機構。台北市政府的甄選公告還訂了一個截止時間,逾時就不再遞補。雖然蔣得立已被美方的對口機構從交換計畫剔除,他仍在台北市政府的25位決選名單之內。縱然蔣得立已經不在國務院的交換計畫,他仍能順利入境美國,透過其他管道進入美國高中就讀。蔣得立擁有美國籍,隨時可回美國讀高中,根本不需要參加台北市政府的交換生甄選。」

陳時奮接著曝光內幕,「根據媒體報導,蔣得立人在紐約,即將進入當地高中就讀一年,再回建中復學。若這項報導屬實,蔣家就是知法犯法,明知蔣得立的資格不符,卻仍然執意報名參加甄選。國務院推動的中學生交換計畫,外國學生就讀的高中不能收學費,接待外國學生的家庭也不能收取住宿費。因為這兩項限制,外國生只會被分派到鄉村地區,而非紐約等大都會地區。都會地區的高中有容量限制,願意提供免費住宿的接待家庭很少,更不稀罕外國學生的交流。鄉村地區的高中沒有名額限制,免費住宿的成本較低,外國學生的交流價值也更高。」

「蔣得立逕自飛往紐約,而非中西部的小鎮,顯示蔣家知道他會被國務院的交換計畫剔除,早就透過私人管道安排他在紐約就讀與住宿,不需等待交換計畫的分派。既然如此,為何蔣得立還要申請台北市政府的交換生甄選呢?蔣家要的是這個交換計畫的榮譽,全台北市只有25位,含金量極高,有助於日後的大學推甄或申請。至於台北市政府提供的財務補助,能拿到最好,放棄也不可惜。蔣家並不缺錢,只要選舉補助款切一小塊就足以支付蔣得立在美國的開銷。」

最後陳時奮直言,「蔣得立到美國追夢的權利,不應因為爸爸是蔣萬安而被剝奪。民眾不滿的是蔣家濫用特權,明知蔣得立不符資格,卻仍執意報名甄選,搶走其他學生的機會。更令人不滿的是,蔣得立佔著茅坑不拉屎,已被美方的對口機構從交換計畫剔除,卻仍不願退出台北市政府的決選名單,阻擋備取生的遞補。台北市政府信誓旦旦,宣稱甄選過程沒有違法。未來這一年,蔣得立在美國的哪一所高中就讀,居住在美國的哪一個城市,真相遲早會曝光。屆時,我要看台北市政府如何圓謊。」

Trump issued 7 "New American State" maps to change the name of New Mexico. The governor and legislators insisted: Our statehood was earlier than the founding of the United States.

U.S. President Trump tweeted seven new maps in a row on social media, proposing to rename New Mexico the new American state. New Mexico Governor Grisham and many congressmen fought back hard, pointing out that the name predates the founding of the United States and that the Constitution stipulates that the president does not have the power to unilaterally change the name of a state.
