China Taiwan Network February 19 news According to Taiwan's "Dongsen News Cloud" report, the effects of Taiwan's pension reform have fermented, and the pension of senior police officers has been reduced by NT$20,000 (NT$, the same below) ), leading to a wave of delayed retirements. The mayors of Taiwan's six major cities (i.e., Taipei, New Taipei , Taoyuan, Taichung , Tainan, Kaohsiung ) have complained about poverty and plan to refuse to accept the new police force. Leaving 5,000 police college graduates with nowhere to go, they may become homeless police officers.

According to reports, Tainan City Mayor Huang Weizhe said at a meeting of Taiwan's "Executive Yuan" a few days ago that for Tainan City, there are already more than 4,000 police officers, and last year they received more than 300 police officers who graduated from the police academy. However, Due to the imbalance in the number of retired people, there are more people who are retired and fewer people who are retired. As a result, the current police manpower is very abundant. This year, the Taiwan Police Department will allocate another 400 police officers to Tainan City. Each year The cost of one police officer including personnel, training and retirement expenses is about NT$1 million, and 400 police officers will increase the local expenditure by NT$400 million, which is a very heavy expenditure for the local government.

Huang Weizhe also said that if the full personnel costs and all the expenses for the new police officers have to be paid by the local government, then the local finance is very tight. At this time, it is not only Tainan City that has difficulties in receiving so many police officers, but also Taipei and New Taipei City. , Taichung, Taoyuan, Tainan, and Kaohsiung are all struggling to survive and have difficulties. In fact, Taipei City has refused to accept them. If the Taiwan authorities do not come up with an appropriate solution, it will be difficult to guarantee the other five. Maybe they all collectively refuse to accept new police officers.

Taipei Mayor Ke Wenzhe was interviewed and said that when making policies, we must first study demography , estimate population changes in the next ten years, understand social age, male-female ratio, etc., and reform the annuity to change the age at which everyone retires. It will be postponed, but the number of police replacements planned each year is a fixed number, so now there is a question, will there be a problem of too many manpower? Ask every county and city government if they want to increase the police force, and everyone says yes. But if you tell them that the additional police force will have to be paid for by themselves, everyone says no. Taiwan's "Police Department" should convene all police stations and think realistically about how many police forces are needed to maintain traffic and law and order, and decide the police force according to needs.
