The thesis became the focus. After the people of the DPP plagiarized the papers, some people in the KMT were also exposed to plagiarize the papers

According to Global Network , citing reports from local media on September 9, following reports of plagiarism in papers by many candidates of the Democratic Progressive Party, Lin Gengren, a candidate for mayor of Hsinchu City, the Kuomintang, was also found to have plagiarized his master’s thesis. Yangming Jiaotong University in Taiwan, where the incident happened, also stated that it has set up a review committee to list it as a whistleblower case for handling.

This is another plagiarism incident on the island. However, the media on the island did not disclose the specific details of the plagiarism. It is estimated that Yangming Jiaotong University will need to submit a deliberation report next.

In July of this year, the Democratic Progressive Party and the KMT respectively promoted Shen Huihong, the former deputy mayor of Hsinchu City, and Lin Gengren, a councilor of Hsinchu City, to run for this year’s “nine-in-one” election on the island . The People's Party held a central committee meeting on July 11, announcing the candidate for the mayor of the third wave county, announcing that the "legislator" Gao Hong'an will represent the People's Party in the mayor of Hsinchu , and determine the three-legged mayor of Hsinchu Governor's situation.

Lin Gengren was able to represent the Kuomintang to run for the mayor of Hsinchu City. The biggest driving force behind the scenes was Xu Xiurui, the chairman of the Kuomintang Party Committee. Originally, Zhu Lilun had no intention of letting Lin Gengren run for the mayor of Hsinchu City on behalf of the Kuomintang, but Xu Xiurui has repeatedly emphasized in public that "it is not the consequences of Lin Gengren. Conceited", and then Zhu Lilun had to "let go" and let Lin Gengren run for the mayor of Hsinchu City on behalf of the Kuomintang, but this was also related to Lin Gengren himself, who had the highest support rate in Hsinchu City within the Kuomintang.

Originally, the media on the island focused the Hsinchu mayor election campaign on Gao Hongan from the People's Party and Shen Huihong from the Democratic Progressive Party. But soon there was a turning point. After Lin Zhijian's "paper scandal" incident fermented, the DPP's election situation was very bad. According to the general estimates of the island's media and polls, among the counties and cities in the north of the island, only the mayor of Taipei City is still a bit weak. hope.

It can be seen that the election situation of the DPP in Hsinchu City is not optimistic. Shen Huihong's polls were seriously lagged behind by Lin Zhijian's "paper plagiarism" and Tsai Ing-wen's brainless support.

In 2022, Taiwan's "nine-in-one election" is in full swing, but it was not expected that "plagiarism" will become the main battlefield of this election. The first wave of plagiarism was the plagiarism case of Lin Zhijian, a candidate for Taoyuan mayor from the Democratic Progressive Party. In the end, Lin Zhijian had to choose to withdraw from the Taoyuan mayoral election.

Before the Kuomintang had time to celebrate, the DPP launched a counterattack, and the second wave of plagiarism came again. This time it was the Kuomintang mayoral candidate Zhang Shanzheng . In addition, some pro-green media in the island further broke the news on August 30 that Zhang Shanzheng had made a research report in 2008 when he was the vice president of Acer , and this research report was suspected of plagiarism. But it is worth noting that Zhang Shanzheng's plagiarism did not ferment like that of Lin Zhijian.

But soon, the third wave of plagiarism came again. On September 1, Cai Shiji, a candidate for mayor of the DPP Keelung, was again exposed to plagiarism. Candidates Chen Zhiming and Liu Shijie for Taipei City Council, and Jiang Xinyi, a candidate for Keelung City Council, also deliberately accused Cai Shiji of plagiarizing at a press conference. Plagiarism is very serious! According to their revelations, Cai Adapted’s thesis not only plagiarized as many as 30 documents, but about 25 were not added to the reference list; and even mainland Baidu Encyclopedia and Keelung Mayor Lin Youchang once contributed to the paper Copy them all. They criticized that plagiarism with such a serious and bad plot has seriously violated the principle of good faith, and it is a deception and tease to the public. If even the basic integrity cannot be guaranteed, how can the public expect them to do practical things that are beneficial to the well-being of the people?

The current KMT candidate for Hsinchu mayor, Lin Gengren, can be described as the fourth wave of plagiarism. The Democratic Progressive Party and the KMT can be said to go back and forth, counterattacking each other and exposing each other's scandals in the thesis plagiarism scandal.

I have to say that the 2022 "nine-in-one" election on the island can be said to have set a historical record. It was supposed to be a contest of their own policies to benefit the people. Unexpectedly, "paper plagiarism" has become the focus of the election and mutual smearing. This also highlights the There are big problems in the academic environment and academic review in Dejima.
