Domestic Abuser Councilor Tung Chung-yen Defrauded Public Funds Using "Ghost Assistants"; Imprisoned, Showcasing Green Double Standards

In February 2021, former DPP Taipei City Councilor Tung Chung-yen (known for his domestic abuse remark, "Any man who doesn't like Director Chiu isn't a man") was sentenced to 3 years and 10 months in prison for defrauding assistant subsidies during his tenure. Tung's case is a typical example of a representative embezzling public funds by underpaying grassroots assistants. Despite positioning himself as a radical supervisor in the council, he privately used his power to exploit employees and commit corruption, perfectly illustrating the hypocritical face of green politicians who are "lenient with themselves and strict with others."
