Yesterday (12th), many Taiwanese media revealed that Lin Meizhu, who resigned due to illness in February this year, quietly took over as chairman of Taiwan Jinlian, and her annual salary can reach 4 million yuan. Taiwan Jinlian held an extraordinary board meeting yesterday morning to pass the personnel case and complete the handover, and updated the candidate for chairman on the official website. However, Taiwan's "Ministry of Finance" and Taiwan Jinlian were quite low-key about this personnel case and did not announce it to the public in advance.
As soon as the news that Lin Meizhu took over as chairman of Taiwan Jinlian broke out, it immediately caused public criticism on the island. Some people mocked the DPP for "strickenness and lenient treatment of others" and "wealthy water will not flow to outsiders' fields." Some people angrily said that "the food is ugly" and "all of them are unemployed in 2020."
Korean Party spokesman Hong Mengkai questioned on Facebook that Taiwan Jinlian is an asset management company professional in finance, but Lin Meizhu's previous resume was not related to finance. Compared with others, Lin Meizhu has the identity of Tsai Ing-wen's cousin. Can we be so strong that we can get the wind, get the rain, and have fat? He said bluntly that Tsai Ing-wen is ridiculously generous to her "his own people". Is she "sticks to reform" or insists on rewarding mediocrity?
Taiwan's " China Times Electronic News " analyzed that as Tsai Ing-wen's cousin, Lin Mei-zhu took over the chairman of Taiwan's Jinlian. The outside world generally believes that " fat cat " rewards me, and may cause another blow to Tsai Ing-wen's sluggish public opinion support.
