Chen Jiaqin, the "former director of the police department" of the Democratic Progressive Party, applied for early retirement. In a recent exclusive interview with the media, he admitted that political forces were indeed involved and directly named Xu Guoyong, the head of the internal affairs department, to intervene in police personnel. In this regard, Xu Guoyong was interviewed three times today (July 1) and refuted the claim that high-level executive Qiao Renqing was involved. Xu Guoyong emphasized that "according to law" personnel power above the level of police supervisor originally belonged to the person in charge of the internal affairs department. "What am I talking about?" He also said that such accusations are unbelievable.

As the biggest police officer in Taiwan, Chen Jiaqin applied for early retirement without warning, which attracted attention. It was reported that the opinions on the personnel case were different from those of the top management, so he decided to retire early. After Chen Jiaqin completed the handover ceremony of "Director" yesterday, he accepted an exclusive interview with the media and confirmed for the first time that his opinions on personnel matters were indeed different from those at the top level. He also mentioned that he always made suggestions based on professional principles, but it was inevitable that he would encounter "exchanges of favors" things.
Regarding this, Xu Guoyong was interviewed when he attended the Household Registration Day celebration today and said that according to Taiwan's "Civil Service Appointment Law", "Police Law" and "Police Personnel Regulations", police personnel are managed by the internal affairs department, and all police and supervisors are above The power of selection and appointment lies with the internal affairs department, not the "Police Department". The "Police Commissioner" only has the right to make suggestions, and his appointment must be approved by the head of the internal affairs department. The "law" is very clear.
Xu Guoyong said that the "Police Personnel Regulations" have been "third read" by the legislative body, and the regulations are very clear. The selection of appointments above the police superintendent is done by the internal affairs department, and the selection below by the police superintendent is also done by the internal affairs department, but it can be handed over to the "municipalities directly under the Central Government" Government selection, since this right originally belongs to the head of the internal affairs department. "What am I asking for? Why should I give back my things? Huh, this is really unbelievable." He sternly refuted the idea that there was a favor from a high-ranking person.
Xu Guoyong reiterated that the "director" can make suggestions on personnel cases, but the "minister" does not need to accept them all, because the heads of internal affairs departments and administrative agencies are responsible for the success or failure of public security. Therefore, the police personnel power, administrative The person in charge of the organization also has absolute power, and the outside world should not mistake the cause for the effect or cause and effect confusion.
