According to global website citing a report from Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao, the plagiarism of political papers on the island continues to spread. Taoyuan mayoral candidate Zheng Baoqing, who has been expelled from the DPP, has been accused of plagiarism in his doctoral thesis. , at present, the Central University of Taiwan has confirmed that it has received the report letter and will handle it in accordance with regulations.
According to the island's media reports, on September 12, the "Radical Progressive Party" Taoyuan city councilor candidate Lan Shibo and the Internet celebrity "Four Forks Cat" sent a report to the Central University School of Management in Taiwan via email. Letter, referring to Zheng Baoqing's doctoral dissertation plagiarism.
On September 12, Lan Shibo and the island's well-known Internet celebrity "Four Forks Cat" held a press conference before going to Taichung University. At the press conference, Lan Shibo said that Zheng Baoqing borrowed the former mayor of Hsinchu Lin Zhijian. The plagiarism case of his thesis, and the blue camp media sang and merged, and later quit the party and ran for mayor of Taoyuan in the image of a "lone minister". However, after comparing Zheng Baoqing's papers by "Four Fork Cats", it was also found that Zheng Baoqing's papers were plagiarized in many places, and simplified to traditional Chinese.
Lan Shibo also said that in the first 40 pages of Zheng Baoqing's paper, there are eight and 16 pages of obvious plagiarism and inappropriate citations, and the maximum number of single plagiarism is closer to 800 words. The scissors and paste of the family's complete works".
The "Radical Progressive Party" that Lan Shibo belongs to is part of the island's green camp and has always been considered a flank of the DPP, and has very close political ties with the DPP. The
internet celebrity "Four-forked Cat" is a very interesting person. Before that, he and Chen Shizhong filmed the "Toilet Free" promotional video, which shows that he has a close relationship with the DPP. But what is very strange is that the "four-forked cat" did not do anything with its own Internet celebrity, and went to check Zheng Baoqing's doctoral dissertation with a feverish mind. The tricks behind this are really thought-provoking.
Central University has spoken and will announce the results of the investigation within the next 5 working days. It is worth noting that although Zheng Baoqing himself is a veteran of the DPP. However, after Lin Zhijian's "Thesis Gate" incident, he gradually parted ways with the DPP, and he also independently ran for the post of mayor of Taoyuan City. This caused strong dissatisfaction with the Democratic Progressive Party. Zheng Baoqing himself was expelled from the party and has now become a non-party member.
Zheng Baoqing himself has been deeply involved in Taoyuan City for many years, and his own candidacy for mayor of Taoyuan City is very unfavorable for the DPP's election, especially because he is likely to divert the DPP's votes in Taoyuan City. As early as the day after Zheng Baoqing announced his own candidacy, it was revealed that he had been attacked by the DPP cyber army. If this "paper plagiarism" is confirmed and continues to ferment, the possibility of Zheng Baoqing dropping the election at the last minute cannot be ruled out.
Since Lin Zhijian's "Thesis Gate" incident, the island's political scene has been filled with the words "paper plagiarism", and the exposure of "paper plagiarism" can be described as endless. After
Lin Zhijian's "paper plagiarism" incident, DPP Keelung mayor candidate Cai Shijing was revealed to be suspected of plagiarism in his doctoral dissertation. The plagiarism rate of his thesis conclusions was as high as 33%, and he even plagiarized Wikipedia and Baidu Encyclopedia.
The Democratic Progressive Party's candidate for Yunlin County Mayor Liu Jianguo was accused of fraudulent academic qualifications, underworld background, and suspected plagiarism of papers. Lin Yuhong, an agricultural expert on the island, questioned that the electronic file of Liu Jianguo of South China University's master thesis "Travel Motivation, Image, Experience Value and Willingness to Revisit Gukeng Green Tunnel Tourists" could not be downloaded, and even the paper copy could not be found. It's "more ridiculous than Harry Potter's Vanishing Chamber of Secrets"! Lin Yuhong also pointed out that Liu Jianguo's thesis has exactly the same title as the professor's journal, and the introduction is as high as 95% repeated.
In addition to the DPP, the Kuomintang also has a large proportion of "paper plagiarism". KMT Hsinchu mayoral candidate Lin Gengren’s master’s thesis at Taiwan Jiaotong University was suspected of plagiarizing Hsinchu City government reports, and KMT candidate for Nantou county mayor Xu Shuhua’s thesis was also exposed by the DPP for alleged plagiarism.
In August this year, People's Party Mindai Cai Biru was revealed to be suspected of plagiarism in his thesis at Deming University of Finance and Technology in 2019. The three major parties participating in the "nine-in-one" election of on the island are all on the list. Now "paper plagiarism" continues to spread like a "snowball".
If the biggest feature of the "nine-in-one" election on the island in 2022 is that "paper plagiarism" covers the entire election. As the "paper plagiarism" of politicians on the island continues to be exposed, it has to be said that the rigor and authority of the academic circles on the island are facing increasing doubt and distrust from the public.
