Zheng Wencan, deputy dean of the Taiwan Executive Yuan and former Mayor of Taoyuan, was suspected of accepting bribery cases and experienced many protests and appeals rulings, and Taoyuan Land Court finally ruled on July 11 for his ban on him.Since the 1990s, the Wild Lily School of Study has emerged. He has served as a political assistant of the elders within the party. In recent years, his contribution and performance to the DPP has made everyone respect Zheng Wencan as the "big brother" and the DPP's "Zhou Yu ".As a number 2 in the party, how can this judicial case understand the significance of this outpost before the trial was tried?What is the impact of Zheng Wencan's political future?
The Democratic Progressive Party is behind the meaning of the detention of the Democratic Progressive Party, so on the day of Zheng Wencan's collection, he immediately decided to dispose of his right to suspend his rights for three years.Even though Zheng Wencan was not sentenced to the prison, he would not be nominated for political positions by the DPP in the next three years.The defeat of the outpost means that the opportunity to resume Dongshan is very slim.
The big brother is difficult, and President Lai Qingde has been set in the party in the party.However, people in the party are worried that a Zheng Wencan and Cai Yingwen's cross -strait routes are similar. With the failure of the two factions, their influence on Lai Qingde's diplomatic model has also decreased.Second, Zheng Wencan was funded by the party in the party.In order to show cleanliness, Lai Qingde did not care about fundraising.Therefore, people insiders questioned that during the election, Lai Qingde could contribute a few "strength" to the party.
Compared to Lai Qingde, Zheng Wencan's greatest political achievement is to let Taoyuan politicians and businessmen are willing to endorse the department.As long as there is an event invitation, he must participate in person.If the local community seek subsidies with the city government, its generosity is far better than the Kuomintang period.
The blue -green throughout the game, so that he had enough confidence to face the whirlwind of Korean Yu.In 2018, the South Korean Yu effect rose a wave of anti -civilians in Taiwan.Facing the "Korean Wave", the DPP lost Taichung City and even the old nest Kaohsiung City.What is beyond expectations is that when the Korean flow is turbulent, Zheng Wencan not only keeps Taoyuan City, but also has nearly 60,000 votes more than in 2014!Therefore, at the time, people tended to think that compared with Lai Qingde, Zheng Wencan was the political co -owner of the DPP during the post -Cai Yingwen period.
Why can Zheng Wencan's popularity be so good?In Taoyuan City, almost no one who had opinions and resentment with him.He can establish a huge "Encounter attendant system" in Taoyuan, which depends on Taoyuan to coincide with it to be promoted to municipality directly under the jurisdiction.
Land Transaction and Corruption
In 2014, Zheng Wencan, who was lucky, took over to be promoted to Taoyuan City, a municipality.Taoyuan was originally a county -level administrative district. After the upgrade, the central financial resources were abundant, and the administrative power expanded.Especially important people can sell the land in the city directly.According to some people's estimates, Zheng Wencan's land sold during his tenure has so far a total of Ten billion yuan.The municipal government has increased in income, and it can generously issue subsidies and public benefits, collect people's hearts, and build a network of political and business relations.
The case of Zheng Wencan's admitted was related to the land development and trading of the 2017 Huaya Science and Technology Park.In order to expand the Huaya Science Park, the city government plans to collect about 50 hectares of land as industrial land.At that time, the Ministry of the Interior had returned to this collection after five reviews and other reasons.
In the same year, the Taoyuan Procuratorate believed that the case was possible, and then started an investigation.While listening to Zheng Wencan, the prosecution found two evidences.First, he was suspected of leaking secrets and informed the relevant persons to change the internal affairs of the land, so that the other party was purchased at a low price and then a profit.Second, the 5 million yuan (about S $ 200,000) involved in the bribery was brought to a cash for a man named Liao when he visited the mayor's residence.
It was strange that the prosecutor had been searching for sufficient evidence as early as 2017, but was forced by their boss twice (that is, the case). Three years ago, the investigation was restarted and endless.Until the search for relevant persons in June last year, the prosecutor had a inspection and interview with the parties on July 6th on the birthday of Zheng Wencan.
The look at the outpost of the case was that the prosecutor asked the court to take Zheng Wencan.According to Taiwanese law, the suspect can be passed or detained before trial.The Taoyuan Tribunal allowed Zheng Wencan to pay for the bail for the first time and the second time for the first and second and second time; after the Taoyuan Procuratorate appealed to the High Court twice, the High Court revoked the traffic insurance ruling and sent it back to the Taoyuan Land Court.Tail.
Is it not good for Zheng Wencan to successfully detention?Inspection or detention cannot directly explain the suspect's guilty. Before the formal judgment, the parties were in a state of innocence.But in practice, this outpost is also a signal that prosecutors want to give the outside world, saying that they have great confidence to let Zheng Wencan be imprisoned.Because it is risky to protest to the High Court.
The author's uncertainty did not make much movement seven years ago, but today there is such a great ambition to make Zheng Wencan be convicted.It is generally believed that the emperor and the ministers of the dynasty were released today because of Cai Yingwen's Li Bao.Regardless of what makes the prosecution unit today, with Zheng Wencan's defeat in the outpost, with the current situation, at least by 2028, Lai Qingde is the only presidential candidate for the DPP.
