According to Taiwan’s “China Times” report, DPP Taoyuan mayoral candidate and Hsinchu Mayor Lin Zhijian was exposed for allegedly plagiarizing a research report on a municipal tender project in his master’s thesis. Luo Zhiqiang, a former Taipei City Councilor of the Kuomintang, said that plagiarism in papers is an academic thief. "I want to be elected mayor, Lin Zhijian. Do you want to come out and explain? Or should I seal it up for 30 years?"
Taipei City Councilor of the Kuomintang Wang Hongwei Yesterday (July 4) ) late in the evening broke the news on Facebook that Lin Zhijian’s master’s thesis was suspected of plagiarizing a research report on a municipal bidding project! Wang Hongwei said that the Bamboo Science Management Bureau once held a tender, and after Taiwan's Chung Hwa University won the bid, it completed a closing report in June 2008 "Using the TCSI model to evaluate the satisfaction of residents outside the Hsinchu Science and Industrial Park", and then Lin Zhijian submitted the paper in July " Using the TCSI model to evaluate the satisfaction of residents outside a certain science park on the island."
Wang Hongwei pointed out that the contents of the two papers, including titles, research methods, documents, etc., were almost identical. Even the obvious typos in the bamboo report were copied into the graduation thesis by Lin Zhijian. She called on Lin Zhijian to withdraw from the election as soon as possible, " Don't insult the intelligence of the citizens of Hsinchu and Taoyuan."
Luo Zhiqiang also criticized the paper plagiarism as an academic thief. "If you want to elect the mayor, Lin Zhijian, do you want to come out and explain?" and said in the message box? He said, "If you use a 100-point standard to test Ke Zhien, should you use a 1-point standard to test Lin Zhijian?" [Source: China Jingwei Network]
