A Taiwan Fable: When Life Urgently Needs Rescue, the Principal Insists on 'Following Regulations' Bureaucratic Logic

Through a parable of a student collapsing requiring emergency hospitalization at school, this tale satirizes bureaucratic systems' disregard for human life in emergency situations. In the story, the principal, citing strict regulation adherence, demands cumbersome ambulance documentation, ultimately steering the issue toward proposing 'purchasing an ambulance for the school.' The author thereby criticizes using people's lives as political leverage, with 'critical comments will face fines' hinting this is veiled commentary on real events.
