The DPP's Greed is Unsightly! KMT Legislators Denounce 'Deputy Dual-Track System' in Reorganization as Destructive to the Civil Service System

The article criticizes the reorganization draft of six ministries and councils led by Premier Chen Chien-jen, especially the 'dual-track system of regular and political appointees' for heads of newly established third-level agencies, which allows for political appointments. KMT legislators Lai Shyh-bao and Tseng Ming-chung strongly oppose it, regarding it as disguised political patronage that seriously strikes the morale of regular civil servants promoted through examinations and undermines the fairness and professionalism of the civil service system. The author warns that political appointments may lead to the sacrifice of professionalism, factional struggles, abuse of power, and corruption risks, ultimately harming government efficiency and public interest.
