Chen Ying's headquarters shouted "Ng Xiuhua, stop harming civil servants", exposing family disputes and criticizing the grassroots to force them to swallow

DPP Taitung County Mayor candidate Chen Ying's campaign headquarters spokespersons Jian Weiguo, Chen Xuanyu and Chen Jinxi jointly raised questions about the various controversies of the KMT's Taitung County Speaker Wu Xiuhua and his family, accusing them of circumventing environmental impact assessments from land development and conducting unauthorized activities without approval. From land preparation to private use of parliamentary space, the Wu Xiuhua family’s various actions have put grassroots civil servants in the Taitung County government and parliament under tremendous pressure and illegal risks. We call on Wu Xiuhua to face up to the problem and not to put civil servants into the predicament of illegal detention again.

Chen Xuanyu pointed out that the "Fushan Beautiful Bay Seaview Nursing Center" invested by the Wu Xiuhua family divided about 3 hectares of land and accurately controlled the main development base area to 9,986 square meters, which is only a tiny 14 square meters away from the legal environmental impact assessment threshold of 1 hectare. Later, another water conservation plan was applied for the adjacent land number 356 in the Toyama section, and the adjacent land was cut off to avoid environmental impact assessment review.

Chen Jinxi said that the land No. 359 in the Toyama section of the Toyama Anyang Center, which was not included in the development application scope, actually had large areas of vegetation removed without authorization and heavy machinery was used to excavate and prepare the land. Although the county government went to the site for a survey and issued a fine of 60,000 yuan, requiring the restoration of vegetation, this case had been fined 150,000 yuan for violating the Soil and Water Conservation Law as early as 2016. The Wu family's habitual illegal development model of "do it first and then talk about it" and not be afraid of repeated punishments completely regards administrative sanctions as the norm, making the grassroots law enforcement officers of the county government who abide by their duties bear heavy administrative pressure from the powerful.

Jian Weiguo and Chen Jinxi accused County Council Speaker Wu Xiuhua's husband Gao Wang Xiuyong of occupying the parliament's confidential secretary's office for a long time, placing more than 50 high-priced antique teapots, tea-making equipment and personal belongings, using the public office space as private storage. In the past, ordinary civil servants who occupied public space faced the risk of being prosecuted for corruption. However, the speaker's prerogative can blatantly use space for private purposes. This not only makes colleagues in the parliament dare not speak out, but also severely damages the credibility of public institutions.

The team emphasized that outstanding civil servants have been investigated and even detained for violations. On the surface, Speaker Wu Xiuhua keeps saying that he wants civil servants to work with peace of mind, but in fact, the family's various privilege disputes continue to frighten grassroots civil servants. The competition sternly demands that Wu Xiuhua and the county government's political style units should fully return to administration in accordance with the law, stop letting grassroots civil servants take the blame for illegal activities due to family interests, and give Taitung's public service team a legal environment in which they can perform their duties with peace of mind and impartiality.
